The objective of this study was to compare the richness and density of Odonata larvae in four distinct environments: lotic with large pollutant loads, lotic with small pollutant loads, lentic disconnected from a river and lentic connected to a river, as well as to record the physical and chemical parameters of the water in the four environments. We identified a total of 1,302 Odonata larvae in the four habitats. The environmental variables measured were: dissolved oxygen, pH, conductivity, suspended matter, air and water temperature, precipitation, depth, and the biomass of the macrophytes. The lentic habitats exhibited a greater Odonata larvae density in relation to the lotic habitats, except during April and December of 2006. The Guareí River, however, presented an elevated conductivity, possibly because of a greater quantity of pollutants it received during the period between June and September of 2006, and it showed a higher density of Odonata larvae in comparison to the Paranapanema River. The temperature and the dissolved oxygen on the water surface were, respectively, greater and smaller in the lakes in comparison to the rivers. In spite of the Odonata density being higher in the lentic ecosystems in comparison to the lotic, the richness was not altered during the period studied. Nevertheless, the genera composition was distinct, showing that some taxa show a certain preference for certain types of ecosystems like Calopterygidae and Neogomphus, which were shown exclusively in the Paranapanema River.

The aim of this work was to compare the efficiency of conventional antibiotics in relation to hop-based antimicrobials, in industrial-scale bioethanol production. The comparison was made by calculating the lactic acid bacteria population reduction in two consecutive fermentation cycles. To conduct the experiment, it was used five treatments (three conventional antibiotics: Kamoran WP, Corstan and Alcapen 1030, and two hop-based antimicrobials: BetaBio and IsoStab). The samples were collected in the fermentation vat. In order to quantify the initial lactic acid bacteria population, a sample was collected at the end of the fermentation process (wine) before the treatment with antibiotics or antimicrobials, and to determine the final population, another sample was collected at the end of the fermentation process (wine) after the treatment with antibiotics or antimicrobials. The experiment was completely randomized and the statistical analysis was performed through analysis of variance (ANOVA) for data processed using the equation y’ = . After the data transformation, the Levene's test was applied to verify data adherence to normal distribution, and the averages were compared through Tukey’s test at 5% probability. The results showed that the hop-based antimicrobials (IsoStab and BetaBio) can be used to substitute the conventional antibiotics (Kamoran, Alcapen and Corstan), since there was no statistical difference between the treatments.

The current socio-economic situation has brought a need to look for alternative ways to get energy that allow reducing the high dependence on fossil fuel sources while deflect from the climate change arising from the result of the use of these energy resources. Renewable sources of energy, low and medium temperature appear as high potential of energy resources, which have a major influence on the way of life of the people to enable decentralized energy production. In Brazil, in particular, have also the need to decentralize the energy grid, currently focused on energy from water source. The current water crisis, exemplifies the urgency of betting on other energy sources, as a way to help in emergency situations such as the current one. Therefore, this study evaluates the possibility of using biomass as a heat source in a Rankine Cycle Organic where instead of water; it uses thermal fluid as working fluid, was compared the urban areas of the city of Guaratinguetá with the urban area of the metropolitan region of São Paulo. Thus, it was established two scenarios, so it was possible to establish the cycle to be used

O Brasil é considerado um grande produtor e consumidor de carnes, leite e alimentos de origem animal e os medicamentos veterinários têm sido amplamente utilizados na criação dos animais destinados ao consumo humano, com o intuito de prevenir o aparecimento de doenças e também como promotores de crescimento. Os fármacos utilizados para esta finalidade, no entanto, podem ocorrer nos alimentos derivados desses animais tratados, com conseqüências sobre a saúde humana. Além das substâncias utilizadas intencionalmente, a contaminação ambiental ou a presença de contaminantes em rações constitui uma fonte potencial de compostos cuja concentração no alimento final processado pode exceder os limites de segurança estabelecidos para garantir a saúde humana. Com o intuito de promover maior segurança alimentar, no Brasil, foram estabelecidos os programas PNCRC e o PAMVet, que são responsáveis pelo monitoramento da presença de substâncias ilegais (como os antimicrobianos nitrofuranos) e também, visam o controle do Limite Máximo de Resíduos (LMR). O objetivo do presente trabalho é reunir e discutir as informações sobre os principais resíduos e contaminantes de medicamentos veterinários em alimentos de origem animal no Brasil, assim como as publicações referentes às avaliações mais recentes desses produtos alimentícios presentes no mercado brasileiro. Estas informações serão utilizadas para novas discussões relacionadas ao uso adequado de medicamentos veterinários e à proposição de estudos de farmacocinética que poderão fundamentar o estabelecimento do período de carência para esses produtos farmacêuticos.
