Foi implementada uma rede de ensaios pelo Instituto Nacional de Ciência e Tecnologia da Fixação Biológica do Nitrogênio (INCT-FBN) para a validação de novas estirpes de bactérias associativas com capacidade de promover o crescimento vegetal. A rede de ensaios formada abrange cinco estações experimentais, sendo quatro localizadas no Estado do Paraná e uma em Goiás.

A actividade aqui descrita teve como objectivo aproximar alunos do ensino secundário a uma abordagem fisiológica e molecular sobre os efeitos dos metais nos seres vivos. Os alunos ficaram familiarizados com abordagens teóricas e experimentais que permitiram avaliar o crescimento celular por observação qualitativa, determinação do conteúdo proteico e da actividade específica fosfatase alcalina (ALP), recorrendo a centrifugação diferencial, leituras de absorvência e tratamento informático dos resultados. Os estudantes concluíram que a presença de metavanadato de amónio inibiu o crescimento da levedura vínica Saccharomyces cerevisiae UE-ME3, causando um decréscimo significativo do conteúdo proteico e da actividade específica ALP, um marcador da proliferação celular. A avaliação de competências adquiridas, bem como, os inquéritos de opinião mostraram que a maior parte dos alunos do 10° e 12° ano da Escola Secundária Dom Manuel Martins de Setúbal, envolvidos nesta acção, atingiram com sucesso e satisfação os objectivos previamente traçados, revelando uma aprendizagem significativa. ABSTRACT: The work described here aimed to bring high school students to a physiological and molecular approach on the effects of metals in living organisms. The students were familiar with theoretical and experimental approaches that allowed them to evaluate cell growth by qualitative observation, protein contents and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) determination, using differential centrifugation, absorbance readings and computational analysis of data. The students concluded that the presence of ammonium metavanadate inhibited the wine-wild yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae UE-ME3 growth, and cause a significant decrease of protein content and ALP specific activity, a cell proliferation marker. The assessment of acquired skills, as well as opinion surveys showed that the vast majority of students of 10th and 12nd years of High School Dom Manuel Martins of Setúbal, involved in this project have reached with success and satisfaction the goals previously set for this action and reveals a significant learning.

Brain death results in the breakdown of effective central regulatory mechanisms of cardiocirculatory stability, even in patients with artificial mechanical ventilation, correction of electrolytic and acid-basic disorders and maximal conventional pharmacological support of the circulation. Recent evidences have shown that the fall of vasopressin levels in the blood circulation significantly influences the cardiocirculatory stability of patients with brain death, and its exogenous administration is defended by many authors for the management of multiorgan donor patients. In this brief review we analyse and discuss some experimental and clinical relevant studies about the role of vasopressin in the control of cardiocirculatory stability in brain death, and its potential usefulness in the management of multiorgan donor. We conclude that the role of vasopressin in the pathophysiology of brain death and its usefulness as a pharmacological agent in the management of multiorgan donor are not well elucidated, deserving further investigations.

This paper presents two techniques to evaluate soil mechanical resistance to penetration as an auxiliary method to help in a decision-making in subsoiling operations. The decision is based on the volume of soil mobilized as a function of the considered critical soil resistance to penetration in each case. The first method, probabilistic, uses statistical techniques to define the volume of soil to be mobilized. The other method, deterministic, determines the percentage of soil to be mobilized and its spatial distribution. Both cases plot the percentage curves of experimental data related to the soil mechanical resistance to penetration equal or larger to the established critical level and the volume of soil to be mobilized as a function of critical level. The deterministic method plots showed the spatial distribution of the data with resistance to penetration equal or large than the critical level. The comparison between mobilized soil curves as a function of critical level using both methods showed that they can be considered equivalent. The deterministic method has the advantage of showing the spatial distribution of the critical points.

Edible mushroom are highly perishable foods. Drying is an alternative to provide safe storage. In this work, the effects of some drying parameters on the quality of Shiitake mushroom were investigated: geometry of the raw material (whole and sliced), drying temperature (50 °C and 70 ºC) and final moisture content (5% and 15% wb). Experimental kinetics of drying was built and color and texture analyses were done in fresh and in rehydrated dried product. The effect of parameters was evaluated by analysis of variance and test of multiple comparisons. Drying kinetics showed that drying happened in falling-rate period and sliced mushroom dried at 70 ºC required lesser drying time than other treatments. Mushroom dried at 70 ºC showed less darkening. Drying time affected mushroom quality, evaluated by great hardness, gummosis and darkening.

Development of processing technology and equipments requires new methods and better quality of the processed product. In the continuous drying process, utilization of equipments that promotes an increment in the transfer coefficients becomes of the major interest. The use of vibrational energy has been recommended to the dispersed materials. Such method is based on the use of vibrational energy applied to disperse media. Thus, a literature review on the mass transfer and drying in vibro-fluidized beds was carried out, showing experimental results and mathematical modeling.

Application of mechanical vibration to aid fluidization and to improve heat, mass and momentum transfer are usual processes in agricultural industry and it has found nowadays extensive applications in particle processing of materials difficult-to-fluidized. Equations and experimental data found in literature for the aerodynamics characteristics of vibro-fluidized beds are presented and discussed, emphasizing the vibration effect in the bed.
