O tratamento probabilístico da teoria cinética de colisões em livros de química brasileiros para o ensino médio

This paper presents and discusses an analysis of the approaches and the didactic treatment of the kinetic model of collision between particles in chemical reaction (collision theory model) presented by brazilian chemistry textbooks for the medium level. Our starting point at this search was the correct and scientific model for this theory which is based on random events, but most of all the books investigated does not consider this fact like an important and very precious didactic aspect. We utilized in the investigation the writing discoursive analysis technique.

Diferentes técnicas de imobilização enzimática para obtenção de catalisadores

As lipases, também chamadas de glicerol éster hidrolases, são enzimas que fazem parte do grupo das serina hidrolases, tendo como substrato, triglicerídeos. O modo de ação das lipases assemelha-se ao das esterases, realizando a hidrólise das ligações ésteres-carboxílicas de acilgliceróis, formando ácidos graxos e glicerol. Processos de bioconversão enzimática têm sido bastante utilizados na produção, transformação e valorização de matérias-primas. Avanços na tecnologia enzimática, como a imobilização de enzimas, possibilitaram a modificação das propriedades cinéticas e da estabilidade destas moléculas contribuindo com o aumento no potencial de aplicações das mesmas. O presente trabalho teve por objetivo estudar diferentes métodos de imobilização de lipases em suportes de sílica, bem como os efeitos deste procedimento, visando melhorar a funcionalidade das enzimas e o maior rendimento econômico nos processos industriais. Os métodos de imobilização escolhidos para os estudos foram: adsorção física, ligação covalente e encapsulação. O processo de imobilização de lipase em Celite (adsorção física) foi otimizado levando em conta o pH, porcentagem da concentração enzima:suporte e temperatura ótimos de atividade enzimática. Também se utilizou Celite como suporte para a imobilização de lipase por ligação covalente, onde se obteve os melhores resultados com atividade enzimática 20% a 40 ºC e eficiência de imobilização de 50%. A celite foi ativada com 3-aminopropiltrietoxisilano e glutaraldeído. Por último, foi avaliada a possibilidade de encapsulação da lipase utilizando o precursor tetraetilortossilicato (TEOS). Os resultados obtidos nesta última metodologia não se mostraram satisfatórios. Logo, com os dados obtidos, podemos dizer que uma boa manutenção da atividade catalítica depende do tipo de retenção (química ou física) e da força de interação entre a enzima e o suporte utilizado, força esta que pode, em alguns casos, causar distorções estruturais na proteína, levando a manutenção ou diminuição da atividade catalítica.

Estudo da ativação da superfície de alumínio por íons de mercúrio e formação do amálgama Hg-Al: identificação do produto e cinética de reação

The activation of aluminum surface has the most various purposes as for example the search for the surface activation mechanism and the corrosion products by mercury ions. The objective of this work is to study the reactivity of the surface of aluminum metal when activated by mercury ions (Hg2+), with the consequent formation of an Al-Hg amalgam. Results demonstrate that the kinetics of the reaction, by measuring the mass change with time of the corrosion product formed between Al and Hg, and analysis by infrared spectroscopy (IR) that the product of the reaction between the amalgam, located on the surface, and the atmospheric oxygen is Al2O3 (aluminum hydroxide). The results also indicate that the kinetics of the reaction between the amalgam (Hg-Al) and atmospheric oxygen is of first order and reach a region where there is no more formation of product

Determinação do teor de glicose em bagaço de cana-de-açúcar hidrolizado pelo processo de conversão enzimática

The production of ethanol and sugar from sugarcane juice generate as byproduct, the bagasse. Currently, the bagasse, an industrial lignocellulosic biomass, can be used for production of second-generation ethanol, since when it is submitted to hydrolytic processes generates fermentable sugars. The objective of this study was to produce fungal enzymes capable of hydrolyzing this lignocellulosic biomass to generate glucose. For this, we used the mushroom species Lentinula edodes, Pleurotus ostreatus, Pleurotus eryngii, and Pycnoporus sanguineus as potential sources of laccase, manganese peroxidase and lignin peroxidase enzymes, capable of hydrolyzing the crushed sugarcane. The hydrolysis process was performed with the highest enzymatic activities observed from laccase in L. edodes (39.23 U-mL after 25 day incubation), P. ostreatus (2.5 U U-mL after 27 day incubation), P. sanguineus (80 U-mL after 27 days of incubation) and P. eryngii (16.45 U-mL 15 days incubation). MnP and LiP showed no significant results. The enzymatic hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse in natura (32,17% hemicellulose, cellulose 52,45% and 10,62% lignin) and bagasse hydrolyzate with 7,0% H2SO4 (0,20% hemicellulose, 68,82% to 25,33% cellulose and lignin) were evaluated for each enzymatic obtained. Compared to others, the enzymes produced by P. sanguineus incubated in sugarcane bagasse showed better efficiency resulting in glucose with an average content of 0,14 g-L. Although the levels of glucose determined in this work were low in relation to the literature, it can be stated that the laccase, manganese peroxidase and lignin peroxidase enzymes demonstrated good hydrolytic potential, especially those produced by the fungus P. sanguineus.

Avaliação do processo de hidrólise enzimática para obtenção de açúcares a partir de gengibre (Zingiber officinale)

Ginger is a starchy tubers prized for their chemical components. In the production of any kinds of beverages has been added to the extract of ginger. However, in view of the high starch content, a possibility of further development of the agribusiness sector this would be the hydrolysis tuberous rhizomes disqualified for export in order to obtain hydrolysates that would be used in the preparation of fermented beverages. This work aimed to evaluate the production of sugar from rhizomes of ginger. Two α-amylase enzymes were tested in the stage of liquefaction (Liquozyme Supra (T1) and Termamyl 2X (T2)), as well as the effect of time of action of amyloglucosidase (AMG 300L). The hydrolysates were analyzed in liquid chromatography (HPLC) and was also carried out the mass balance of the processes. The results showed higher hydrolysis of starch in the treatment that used Liquozyme Supra in liquefaction. The action time of 18 hours of AMG 300L hydrolyzate which gave an 98% of its chemical components was glucose.

Cinética micelial dos fungos comestíveis Pleurotus ostreatus e Lentinula edodes em resíduos lignocelulósicos

The objective of this work was to evaluate the mycelial growth of 2 edible fungi (Pleurotus ostreatus and Lentinula edodes) in 6 culture media [(malt-agar, sawdustdextrose-agar-marupá (SDA-MA), sawdust-dextrose-agar-cajuí (SDA-CA), sawdust-dextrose-agaraçaí (SDA-AÇA), sawdust-dextrose-agar-banana 50% (BAN 50%) and sawdust-dextrose-agar-banana 100% (BAN 100%)], in Petri dishes. The experimental design was totally randomized, in a 6x2 factorial scheme. Each treatment consisted of six repetitions in 1 Petri dish, totaling 72 experimental units. It was verified that P. ostreatus presented better mycelial development (81.00; 64.66; 81.00; 50.16 and 33.33mm for SDA-MA, SDA-CA, SDA-AÇA, BAN 50% and BAN 100%, respectively) than L. edodes (32.00; 31.66; 27.66; 37.33 and 21.83mm for SDA-MA, SDA-CA, SDA-AÇA, BAN 50% and BAN 100%, respectively). It was also verified that there was no advantage for L. edodes in relation to mycelial growth, when media based on residues were used, compared to malt-agar medium (control), which obtained the best performance (62.17mm). As for P. ostreatus, SDA-MA and SDA-AÇA medium presented the highest growth averages (81 mm), representing a growth increase of 34% in relation to the control medium (malt-agar), whose growth average was 60.33mm. Thus, the residues tested present potential to be used in fungiculture, especially for the cultivation of P. ostreatus.
