The pregnancy toxaemia affects pregnant females in the final third of pregnancy and, in most cases, with multiple fetuses characterizing its relationship with pathology of multiple pregnancy, because, in this situation, the energy demand of the female is very large. The pregnancy toxaemia develops from a negative energy balance and the consequent mobilization of lipids. Fatty acids produced are directed to the liver to be oxidized via acid cycle to produce energy and causing the ketosis. This paper describes the case of a sheep treated at the Veterinary Hospital of Paranaense University - UNIPAR, Campus II - Umuarama/PR with multiple pregnancy of four lambs and consequent pregnancy toxaemia.

There is a great global concern about the depletion and the high cost of fossil fuel reserves exploitation, more than ever, it is necessary to make a profound study and take advantage of alternative sources that can be used as energy efficiency with an appropriate pricing and low environmental impact. Brazil, which has highlighted using alternative energy sources as the use of ethanol and, in recent years, has been encouraging the expansion of its energy matrix in which the biodiesel will have a strategic importance within the agrobusiness area. Biodiesel is a fuel that can replace the diesel, which is a petroleum derivative. It is an ester, produced in the transesterification reaction of vegetable oils and animal greases, in an alcohol with an additional catalyst, are converted into fatty acids and result in esters with glycerol as sub products. The objective of this study was to estimate the final energy balance for the process biodiesel production from oil chicken waste. The energy balance estimation was quantified in calorific value according to the energy expenditure by calorimetric bomb method. The relationship between input and output of energy was around 0.97. In a first evaluation, the procedures adopted should be improved enough, so the process can become energetic and economically viable.

The Culture of crambe became promising since its grains presents high oil content. The methods of drying may influence the quality of crude oil extracted from the beans, depending on the way it is managed. This study goal was to evaluate the influence of different drying methods on the quality of the crude oil extracted from crambe grain. The experimental design was completely randomized with five treatments (drying with heated air, natural air, yard, shade, and at the field), and with four tests for each. In order to check the quality of the grains, we performed an analysis of fat acidity, and to evaluate the crude oil quality, we conducted analysis of iodine value, acid value, water content, density at 20ºC, and a kinematic viscosity at 40°. After obtaining the data, the results were submitted to analysis of variance. When significant means were detected, they were compared by t-test (p ≤ 0.05). The method of drying with heated air provided a lower rate of fatty acid in grains. The drying methods evaluated did not compromise the quality of the oil extracted from the crambe grain.

O Brasil é o terceiro maior consumidor de cosméticos no mundo, representando a segunda colocação em produtos de higiene capilar. Tal colocação está relacionada aos nossos padrões de cuidados estéticos capilares, que muitas vezes, provocam agressões físicas e químicas, deixando os cabelos danificados e quebradiços. Os condicionadores capilares tornam-se uma ferramenta interessante, devido aos inúmeros benefícios protetores oferecidos às superfícies dos fios. A presença de tensoativos catiônicos e álcoois graxos de cadeia longa, unidos à temperatura de fusão dos materiais, velocidade de agitação imposta e resfriamento adequado do produto, podem ser os responsáveis pela formação de cristais líquidos. Tais estruturas conferem estabilidade, viscosidade, melhorias na aparência estética e sensorial do produto e, devido a estas qualidades estão ganhando espaço no mercado cosmético. Assim, o objetivo do trabalho foi desenvolver e formular condicionadores capilares variando-se as concentrações e/ou os tensoativos catiônicos e álcoois graxos, visando obter estruturas líquido-cristalinas associadas aos condicionadores, através da técnica de microscopia de luz polarizada (MLP), caracterização das estruturas pela técnica de espalhamento de raios-X a baixo ângulo (SAXS) e analise do perfil de textura (TPA) das formulações. Foram manipuladas 14 emulsões O/A, variando-se os álcoois graxos de cadeia longa (16 a 18C) e ceras auto emulsionantes catiônicas. Os resultados da MLP foram, em sua maioria, positivos para a presença de estruturas na forma de cruz de malta. A técnica de SAXS confirmou os sistemas sugeridos pela MLP caracterizando a estrutura líquida cristalina do tipo lamelar. A TPA inferiu que a alta estabilidade física apresentada por estas emulsões, e seu particular desempenho no deslizamento dos cabelos, pode estar relacionada à presença de tal organização estrutural nas formulações...

Objective The aim of the present study was to investigate the lipid profiles of the hepatic and adipose tissues of Wistar rats treated for 21 days with a diet high in saturated fat (high saturated fat, n=6) or high in hydrogenated fat, that is, having 50% partially hydrogenated vegetable oil in its composition (high hydrogenated fat, n=6), and compare them to those of a control group (control group, n=6). Methods Adipose tissue and total hepatic fat were higher in the saturated fat group than in the hydrogenated fat group. Hepatic lipid peroxidation was greatest in the saturated fat group, with consequent lower hepatic vitamin E and A levels. In contrast, serum vitamin A was highest in the saturated fat group. Analysis of hepatic lipid fractions found more cholesterol and less high density lipoprotein-cholesterol in the hydrogenated fat group. The hydrogenated fat group had the highest levels of triacylglycerols, followed by the saturated fat group. Results Significant amounts of trans fatty acids were detected in the hepatic and adipose tissues of the hydrogenated fat group. Among the identified fatty acids, 18:1n9 had a higher positive association with hepatic cholesterol and triacylglycerols, and a higher negative association with high density lipoprotein-cholesterol. Partially hydrogenated vegetable oil promotes greater accumulation of cholesterol and triacylglycerols in the liver than saturated fats. Conclusion Trans fatty acids were incorporated into hepatocytes and adipocytes in a highly efficient manner.

The cassava cake was developed enriching it with a biomass of Spirulina platensis and a type of bran made out of its own starch. This biomass, a part from being rich in protein, also contains vitamins, essential fatty acids and minerals. Around Umuarama, in the State of Parana, there is an agricultural/industrial complex annually producing and processing tons of cassava. Baked goods can be elaborated based in cassava as a way to expand the use of this raw material and to produce food free of gluten to celiac people. In this complex a solid byproduct is generated, which is rich in starch and fibres, and because of its low commercial value it is used for animal feed or discarded. The bran was dehydrated and analysed microbiologically as well as physically and chemically so as to be used in applied research. Developed energetic food based on cassava lacks protein, but this can be supplied by adding the biomass of Spirulina platensis. Different formulations of this cassava cake were developed varying the concentration of Spirulina platensis and cassava bran. The formulation that presented the best features received chocolate before being submitted to sensory tests by children in the public education system. The results show an excellent acceptance which made viable the development of this product because of aspects like nutrition, technology and sensorial.
