Intertekstuaalisuuden ja ironian lajit ja ilmaisukeinot Mikko Lehtosen kolumneissa

Tarkastelen pro gradu -tutkielmassani intertekstuaalisuuden ja ironian lajeja ja ilmaisukeinoja Mikko Lehtosen Opettaja-lehteen ja Helsingin Sanomiin kirjoittamissa kolumneissa. Nämä saman kirjoittajan kahdelle eri foorumille kirjoittamat tekstit ovat mielenkiintoinen tutkimuskohde niiden välillä selvästi havaittavan sävyeron vuoksi: Opettaja-lehden kolumneihin ei sisälly ironiaa. Sekä intertekstuaalisuutta että ironiaa tutkittaessa on kiistelty siitä, mitkä ilmaisukeinot kuuluvat niiden piiriin, mitkä taas eivät. Intertekstuaalisten suhteiden tarkastelun peruslähtökohtana tässä tutkielmassa on Norman Fairclough’n jaottelu avoimeen intertekstuaalisuuteen ja interdiskursiivisuuteen. Viittaan myös Vesa Heikkisen ja Ulla Tiililän näkemyksiin intertekstuaalisuudesta. Työni kannalta relevantteja ironianselityksiä ovat Toini Rahdun koherenssiselitys ja siihen sisältyvä komponenttimääritelmä sekä Dan Sperberin ja Deidre Wilsonin ironian kaikuteoria. Mikko Lehtosen yleisimmin käyttämiä avoimen intertekstuaalisuuden ilmaisukeinoja ovat intertekstien suora nimeäminen, niiden referointi ja kuvailuesitys. Jonkin verran esiintyy myös lainausmerkkien käyttöä sekä sekaesitystä, joka rikkoo kirjakieleen vakiintuneita suoran ja epäsuoran esityksen normeja. Näillä keinoilla Lehtonen viittaa muun muassa erilaisiin mediateksteihin sekä tieteen ja koulutuksen teksteihin. Avointen tekstiviittausten avulla voidaan osittain luokitella myös ne diskurssit, joihin Lehtosen Opettaja-lehden kolumnit kytkeytyvät. Diskurssien hahmottamiseen vaikuttavat myös sananvalinnat. Alustavan hypoteesini mukaisesti intertekstuaalisuus on osoittautunut myös yhdeksi ironian ilmaisukeinoksi Lehtosen Helsingin Sanomien kolumneissa. Intertekstuaalisuuden lisäksi Mikko Lehtosen HS:n kolumneissa käyttämiä ironian ilmaisukeinoja ovat falskit illokuutiot, kärkevät väitteet, vähättely ja liioittelu. Liioittelun ja kärkevien väitteiden havaitsemista edistävät sananvalinnat, jotka kolumnien kokonaiskontekstissasaavat ironisen sävyn.

Estudos termoanalíticos de sais de sódio e potássio de ditiocarbamatos em atmosfera oxidante

Thermoanalytical behavior of sodium and potassium salts of pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (pyr), piperidineditiocarbamate (pip), morpholinedithiocarbamate (mor), hexametileneiminedithiocarbamate (hex), were investigated. In a first step the salts were synthesized and characterized by infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), ¹H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and elementar analysis. Finally, thermal analytical (TG/DTG and DSC) studies were performed in order to evaluate the thermal stability, as well as the pathways of the thermal decomposition based in the intermediate and final decomposition products.

Síntese, caracterização e análise térmica dos sais de lítio, sódio e potássio do ácido palmítico e do seu éster etílico

Alkaline salts of the palmitic acid were synthesized and characterized from aqueous and ethanolic medium. The salts were characterized by elemental analysis (EA) and infrared spectroscopy (IR).

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) is used to study the two crystalline forms.

Estudo da adsorção de surfactante catiônico na matriz inorgânica fosfato de nióbio hidratado

This work describes the study the adsorption of a cationic surfactant, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) in the hydrous niobium phosphate matrix. The matrix was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (DRX), thermal analysis (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and surface area measurements (BET). The Langmuir and Freundlich isothermal models were used in the CTAB adsorption study. The adsorption process wasn`t favorable for the NbOPO4.nH2O in both studied models.

Formulações de atrazina em xerogéis: síntese e caracterização

In this study, controlled release formulations of Atrazine (ATZ) were synthesized by the sol-gel method and characterized by elemental, FTIR, SEM, BET and DSC analyses. The release kinetic of ATZ from the formulations in CaCl2 0.01 mol L-1 medium was monitored by UV/Vis spectroscopy. In all formulations, ATZ was physically dispersed on the Si-polymer, and the dispersion grade decreased with increasing amount of herbicide. The ATZ release kinetics was controlled mainly by dissolution, and the data could be fitted to the Korsmeyer - Pepper model. The ATZ as xerogel presents a lower affinity for soil than as granulated form.

Otimização e validação de métodos analíticos para determinação de BTEX em água utilizando extração por headspace e microextração em fase sólida

Three analytical methods for the determination of BTEX in water were optimized and validated. With the best method the analytes were extracted of 10 mL of sample with 2.50 g of NaCl in headspace vial of 20 mL by HS and SPME to 40 ºC for 30 min for adsorption and to 250 ºC for 4 min for desorption and were analyzed by GC-MS. The recovery was between 97.9% and 104.3%, and the limit of detection was 2.4 ng L-1 for o-xylene. This method was using to analyze BTEX in water supply and surface water in Ouro Preto city. No sample had concentrations of BTEX above the legislation.

Análise térmica aplicada à caracterização da sinvastatina em formulações farmacêuticas

Thermogravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are used in pharmaceutical studies for drugs characterization, purity, formulations compatibility, polymorphism identification, stability evaluation, and thermal decomposition of drugs and pharmaceutical formulations. Simvastatin showed fusion at 138.5 ºC and thermal stability up to 248 ºC. Simvastatin was incompatible with preservative excipient butylhydroxyanisole (BHA) performing a process of crystal amorphization. The drug showed morphological polymorphism, where it has the same unit cell but with different crystal habits according to the recrystallization solvent.

Determinação simultânea de trialometanos e agrotóxicos em água por cromatografia gasosa

A method for simultaneous analysis of trihalomethanes and organochloride and pyrethroid pesticides in water utilizing SPME-HS and GC-ECD was developed. In the optimized method 25 mL of water containing 2% (w/v) Na2HPO4 were heated to 60 °C for 50 min. The fiber (PDMS - 100 μm) was exposed to a headspace for the same period. For all analytes it was found that LOQ < MCL (Maximum Contaminant Level), CV < 20% and r > 0.9. The method was applied to potable and surface water samples. Some trihalomethanes were encountered in potable waters, at levels below the MCL.

Cellulose acetate produced from mango seed fibers cellulose was used as a matrix for preparation of microparticles empty and load with acetaminophen (Paracetamol) in order to evaluate the incorporation of an active agent during the formation of microparticles. The microparticles are characterized by Fourier Transformed Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The incorporation of paracetamol can be confirmed by the change in value of glass transition temperature (Tg). The formation of microparticles spherical was observed by SEM and showed an average diameter of 1.010 and 0.950 mm for empty and load microparticles respectively.

Preparação e caracterização de suspensões coloidais de nanocarreadores lipídicos contendo resveratrol destinados à administração cutânea

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN), nanoemulsions (NE), and microemulsions (ME) were prepared by the hot solvent diffusion method, using tristearin or castor oil as oily phase, and soy lecithin and Solutol HS 15 as surfactants. Mean particle sizes ranged from 20 to 215 nm and negative zeta potentials were obtained for all nanocarriers. A HPLC method used to determine resveratrol was specific, linear, exact and precise. The entrapment efficiency was high for all formulations. However, resveratrol content was significantly varied among the lipid nanocarriers. Lipid nanocarrier containing hydrogels exhibiting pseudoplastic behavior were obtained after incorporation of hydroxyethylcellulose in the colloidal dispersions.

Thermal and structural study of guava (Psidium guajava L) powders obtained by two dehydration methods

Two food products (powders) were obtained by hot-air drying or lyophilisation methods on the whole guava fruits. The powders were characterised by sensory and thermal analyses (TGA-DSC), infrared spectroscopy (IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Thermal, morphological and structural characterisations showed a similar behaviour for the two solids. TGA-DSC and IR showed the presence of pectin as the main constituent of solids. A semi-crystalline profile was evidenced by XRD, and lamellar/spherical morphologies were observed by SEM. Sensory analyses revealed an aroma highly related to guava. These value-added food products are an alternative to process guava and avoid loss during postharvest handling.

Discriminação entre estádios de maturação e tipos de processamento de pós-colheita de cafés arábica por microextração em fase sólida e análise de componentes principais

A fruit chemical composition reflects its maturation stage. For coffee, it is also the reflex of the post-harvesting processing type, dry, semi-wet and wet. The object of this work was to verify if headspace solid phase microextraction coupled to gas chromatography (HS-SPME-GC) could be used to discriminate between samples harvested in different maturation stages and treated by different processes. With application of principal component analysis to the area of 117 compounds extracted by SPME, using divinylbenzene/Carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane fiber, it was possible to discriminate, in the roasted and ground coffee, the maturity stage and processing type used .

Análise térmica aplicada a fármacos e formulações farmacêuticas na indústria farmacêutica

Several matters of the pharmaceutical demonstrate the great importance of thermal analysis application, especially TG and DSC for the pharmaceutical industry future, namely: characterization of the drugs with the thermal events definition, in studies of drug purity, in the polymorphs identification, in compatibility studies of solid dosage pharmaceutical formulations, in drugs and pharmaceutical formulations thermal stability, and in determination of shelf life for isothermal degradation kinetics by extrapolation using the Arrhenius equation. Thus, the test results obtained from thermal analysis are directly related to the quality of a pharmaceutical product, whether the stability or bioavailability of the pharmaceutical product.
