Melanin is a very important pigment to human species, and besides defining skin, eyes and hair color, it is also involved in sun exposure protection. This pigment is classified into two subtypes: pheomelanin, which is responsible for lighter pigmentation and eumelanin, the dark pigment related. Due to this type of melanin variation it is possible to found different phenotypes of hair and skin color. The genetics MC1R variations are described as the most important for diversity in pigmentation, and this gene is directly related to the complex process of melanin synthesis. The use of these variations to phenotype prediction using genetic information has been used in Europe countries to infer physical features from biological samples, with the purpose of directing searches of criminal suspects and victims identification. The aim of this study was to analyze 8 major MC1R polymorphisms in a sample of Brazilian individuals. Analyzing 91 individuals, we observed with higher frequencies the polymorphisms rs1805005:G>T, rs2228479:G>A and rs885479:G>A, which are related to skin and hair colors, as previously showed in literature. These data suggest the possibility of predicting phenotype from genetic polymorphisms in Brazilian population. However it will be necessary to analyze a larger number of individuals to be able to confirm these associations and to perform a more detailed statistical analysis

Quartz crystals under natural or artificial irradiation can acquire dark shades and variations btween smoky, black and brown but when submitted at heat-treatment they can become greenish, yellowish or brownish, called citrine at gem shops. In this work a lot of samples was collected from different places in Brazil (Corinto - MG, Diamantina - MG, Sento Sé - BA and Santana do Araguaia – PA) and at first they were submitted at artificial irradiation resulting in dark colours. After that they were submitted at heat-treatment in differents temperatures and time of exposure to record when color change happened to light colours. It variated according to each origin, temperature, time of expousure and different aluminiun and other chemical elements content. Its was possible to define the ideal conditions to results better colours and related it with geology and chemical quartz composition.

We conducted a study of the quality of water distributed by Artesian Well in relation to water supply served by the public for purposes of human consumption of UNESP Campus Guaratinguetá. Two sections of the network were randomly chosen and monitored for 105 days: the stretch of the pipeline started off the Water Treatment Station of the Autonomous Service of Water, Sewage and waste in the Municipality of Guaratinguetá and ended in a point consumption of the Child Family Center, while the section B began at the output of an artesian well and finished in a point of consumption of the Department of Civil Engineering. It is the deterioration of water quality in parts A and B, through comparative analysis of Bicarbonates, Total Hardness, Total Iron, free residual chlorine, pH, Total Residual, Turbidity, Conductivity, Color, Fecal Coliforms and Total Coliforms. Among the observations that can be highlighted: the Total Hardness was found in highest concentration in the extract; for Total Iron significant variations were obtained for both parts, and reduction of this parameter in two points of consumption analyzed, not the expected increase concentration, because the contact of water along the pipe, the CRL showed significant depletion to section A, which can be related to impurities in the water, the presence of biofilm on the walls of pipes, or because this is the stretch of greater extent to be covered by water for pH, this indicated that the water is alkaline and slightly acidic stretch in section B; Turbidity was found for the higher concentration to the passage, and a considerable reduction of this parameter at point consumption due to deposition of particulate matter along the stretch, the conductivity also showed a higher concentration in the extract, as well as an increase in this parameter at the point of consumption.

Este trabalho é uma pesquisa sobre a cor, suas teorias, seu processo de percepção pelo ser humano e sua aplicabilidade na arquitetura. O estudo de caso foi realizado no entorno do Centro Dragão do Mar de Arte e Cultura, localizado na cidade de Fortaleza, Ceará, cujo processo de restauração se iniciou pelo projeto cromático, através do movimento Cores da Cidade, proporcionando um novo espaço urbano multicolorido. Resgata-se um pouco da história das cores através de uma abordagem sobre as teorias elaboradas por diversos estudiosos do tema ao longo dos anos, considerando seus aspectos físicos, químicos e psicológicos. Além disso, é apresentado um item indispensável para a leitura de projetos: a percepção. Recorrer às principais abordagens feitas sobre este tema é importante para dispormos de ferramentas necessárias a uma boa compreensão do projeto selecionado, a fim de entendermos como a cor participa do processo de concepção do mesmo, e como atua perante os usuários e observadores no espaço construído. A idéia foi trabalhar a cor situando-a num contexto: o contexto da arquitetura. Qual seu real papel ao constituir um ambiente construído? Será mesmo real ou depende do emocional de cada um? Como perceber a arquitetura através das cores? Estas e outras perguntas guiaram as buscas para a elaboração deste trabalho

This paper aimed to study the treatability of rainwater collected in Rio Claro, SP, using natural coagulant tannin based. The tannin was compared with other too primary coagulants, namely ferric chloride and corn starch. Assays were performed in laboratory scale using equipment known as Jarteste and aimed to study the conditions most suitable dosage and coagulation pH. First tests were conducted to compare the coagulating and determination of the conditions to be used in the following tests, taking as a criterion the greatest efficiency for water treatment. Also performed were performed tests to construct the tannin coagulation diagram, using the optimal concentration found in the previous phase, by varying the dosage of coagulant and the pH of clotting in order to determine the isoefficiency regions for apparent color and turbidity. Finally, tests were performed cyclically filtration with filter paper. Preliminary tests indicated that the vegetable tannin concentration 3% (m/m) from the commercial solution was presented the best set of results (84.3% removal of apparent color and 82.51% removal of turbidity) compared to ferric chloride (66.25% removal efficiency and apparent color of turbidity 67.82%) and starch (73.68% removal efficiency apparent color and turbidity to 67.19%). The coagulation diagrams indicate that the best region to work with vegetable tannin 3% is where the coagulant dosage ranges from 15 mg/L to about 37.5 mg/L and coagulation pH ranging from about 6.5 to 7.5. The cyclic filtration showed to be not efficient for the best dosage of coagulant, due to the process of clogging of the filter paper, but proved to be efficient for other dosages. Thus, for the waters studied, the results indicate that the natural coagulant based tannin is an alternative to conventional coagulants, possessing benefits of technical and environmental

This study investigated the effect of slope and antecedent soil moisture on the water depth stored and percolated on extensive green roofs built in pilot scale. For this purpose, slopes of 10, 20 and 30% were investigated. Moisture was measured before and after each test to determine the differential moisture (ΔU). A rainfall simulator was designed and tested; the best arrangement presents a Christiansen Uniformity Coefficient of 56%. The results yielded that the slopes of 10% presented the highest values of water depth stored (59,88%), water depth percolated (77,15%), the slope of 30% presented the highest water depth drained (48,22%.) and there was no correlation between slope, water depth stored, water depth percolated and ΔU. It was verified the effect of dilution on the modules i10% between water depth percolated and apparent color (0.71%) in i20% between water depth drained and apparent color (-0.748%) and in the module i30% between water depth drained and turbidity (-0.76%) and water depth drained and apparent color (-0.93%). In i10% there was high correlation between pH and water depth percolated (0.94%) and between water depth drained and pH (0.71%). The data indicate that the module i10% had a greater reduction of runoff

The aim of the present work is to investigate a simplified rainwater treatment strategy for nonpotable use. For this, there were simulated in laboratory scale the treatment conditions of a system that employs Corn Starch as a coagulant in cyclic filtration (from 1 to 5 filtration cycles). A commercial Corn Starch in different dosages was used (0,1; 0,2; 0,4; 0,6; 0,8; 1,0; 1,5; 2,0; 2,5; 3,0; 3,5; 4,0; 4,5; 5,0; 5,5; 6,0; 6,5; 7,0; 7,5; 8,0; 8,5 e 9,0 mg/L). The NBR 15527/07 recommended parameters were monitored on the inflow and outflow and compared to different first flushes (0.5; 1.0 and 1.5mm). The obtained results indicate that the 6.0mg/L dosage presented the best results (removal efficiency of 86% of turbidity; 88% of apparent color and absent of total and faecal coliform residuals). However, it was not possible to prove the filtration cycles benefit, in laboratory scale, because for some Corn Starch dosages the water did not present better quality when increasing the number of cycles.

Este projeto investigou alternativa de tratamento simplificada para fins não potáveis para aplicação em escala industrial. É neste contexto que esta pesquisa alojou sua importância – nas possíveis estratégias de tratamento, em especial na utilização de sistema contendo filtro de pressão e no uso do amido natural de milho como coagulante, auxiliando no processo de filtração, visando aumento da segurança sanitária e da qualidade da água de chuva disponibilizada para aproveitamento. A hipótese do trabalho foi investigar a possibilidade da diminuição ou até eliminação do volume de água descartada na operação de abstração da primeira chuva. Para tal, foram realizados ensaios em escala de laboratório com uma precipitação coletada nos dias 10/03/08 e 03/04/2008. Os resultados da estratégia de tratamento delineada foram comparados com os obtidos pela estratégia convencional com descarte de 1,5 mm da primeira chuva, o que corresponde a um volume de 558 L de água de chuva. Utilizou-se a dosagem de 6,0 mg/L para fim de comparação com a água bruta, sem nenhum tratamento, e com a água somente filtrada. Os resultados não confirmaram a hipótese de que o tratamento com amido natural permite eliminar a etapa de abstração da primeira chuva, porém, vale ressaltar que a qualidade da água coletada já era muito boa previamente ao tratamento. Merece destaque o fato de que a amostra de precipitação submetida aos ensaios apresentados foi coletada em período de freqüente precipitação e, embora tenha sido observado o interstício de 3 dias consecutivos de estiagem a qualidade da água de chuva coletada pode ser considerada boa (34UH de cor aparente; 8,84 UT de turbidez e 238,2 (NMP) de coliformes totais e 3 (NMP) de coliformes termotolerantes). Acredita-se que, para o caso de precipitações ocorridas após longo período de estiagem, a necessidade de tratamento... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

água que abastece uma cidade se não for tratada pode tornar-se importante veículo de transmissores de doenças. O controle da qualidade é uma medida que visa, principalmente, garantir a saúde da população. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi avaliar a qualidade da água distribuída pelo sistema de abastecimento da cidade de Santa Lúcia – SP. A água proveniente desse sistema chega até as residências e, muitas vezes, é consumida sem nenhum tratamento doméstico complementar. A cidade de Santa Lúcia é abastecida por três poços profundos (P2, P3, e P4). Com o intuito de avaliar a qualidade da água captada desses poços e distribuídas para consumo humano foram coletadas amostras diretamente dos poços e de um ponto de consumo nas áreas abastecidas por cada poço. Foram feitas três coletas em cada ponto, em três diferentes épocas do ano. Realizaram-se análises físico-químicas e bacteriológicas em todas as amostras. As análises bacteriológicas foram feitas para determinação da presença de coliformes totais, E. coli e contagem padrão de bactérias heterotróficas em placa. As análises físico-químicas avaliaram cloro residual livre, fluoreto, turbidez, pH, cor aparente e sólidos totais dissolvidos. Duas amostras foram positivas para coliformes totais, apenas uma amostra coletada no poço 2 foi positiva para E. coli. Para bactérias heterotróficas todas a amostras apresentaram contagem em placa inferior a 500 UFC/mL. Todas as amostras estavam dentro do padrão determinado pela legislação para pH, turbidez e sólidos totais dissolvidos. Todas as amostras coletadas no poço 2 tiveram como resultado ausência de cloro residual livre, o mesmo resultado para os demais pontos na segunda coleta de amostras. Todas as amostras apresentaram fluoreto com valores abaixo do VMP estabelecido pela legislação brasileira porém apenas cinco com concentrações dentro da faixa estabelecida pela legislação do Estado de São Paulo ...
