Man cultivates the soil for centuries, but the intensive business and use of the soils under Cerrado vegetation for agricultural production grew out of the seventies. The objective of this study was to evaluate soil physical characteristics as a function of sampling time and the soil uses in a Cerrado area in Uberlandia City - MG, Brazil. The managements were adopted: degraded pasture (M-1), conventional tillage (M-2), minimum tillage (M-3), tillage absence (M-4), no-tillage (NT) for three years (M-5); NT for nine years (M-6), NT for three years after Pinus (M-7), PD for one year after Pinus (M-8) and Pinus forest (M-9) with 25 years old. The evaluations were conducted in 2002/03 growing season, in two areas. The soils were: area 1, an Oxisol (Red Latosol - LV-1, M-1 through M-5) and area 2, two Oxisols (Red Latosol and Red-Yellow Latosol - LVA and LV-2, M-6 through M-9). The physical attributes studied changed depending of the soil class, sampling time and management systems, with emphasis on the area 2 soils, which, in general, better preserved its main physical attributes. Managements with intense tillage, such as the M-2, are the most soil physically degrade, presenting mostly negative changes to soil bulk density, total porosity, microporosity and macroporosity. Since the systems which promote less tillage, in short term, to preserve desirable physical attributes. The M-9 system had the lowest attributes range, compared to the others.

The usual practice in using a control chart to monitor a process is to take samples of size n from the process every h hours. This article considers the properties of the X̄ chart when the size of each sample depends on what is observed in the preceding sample. The idea is that the sample should be large if the sample point of the preceding sample is close to but not actually outside the control limits and small if the sample point is close to the target. The properties of the variable sample size (VSS) X̄ chart are obtained using Markov chains. The VSS X̄ chart is substantially quicker than the traditional X̄ chart in detecting moderate shifts in the process.

The comet assay has been conducted with numerous cell lines to assess in vitro genotoxicity. In order to use the comet assay as part of an in vitro test for evaluating genotoxicity, however, there are cell-specific factors that need to be better understood. In this present study we have evaluated some factors that may impact upon the DNA damage detected in whole blood (WB) cells and lymphocytes (ILs). Experiments were conducted comparing responses of both cells, and investigating the effects of the female hormonal cycle, and oral contraceptive (OC) use on DNA damage detection in the in vitro comet assay, at three sampling time. No significant differences were detected in the basal levels of DNA damage detected in ILs and WB cells from women OC users and non-users and from men. Basal DNA damage in ILs was unaffected by gender and stage of the menstrual cycle or the stage of the treatment schedule. Our results also indicated that the H2O2 induces DNA damage in human lymphocytes independently of gender, low-dose OC use and hormonal fluctuation. However, data showed that in 3rd sampling of menstrual cycle, lymphocytes were more resistant to H2O2-induced DNA damage than those from OC users and men. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A Costa Norte Brasileira é uma das regiões mais produtivas do Brasil, tendo o rio Amazonas como a principal fonte de nutrientes, o que explica o grande potencial de produção primária na região. O objetivo principal deste trabalho foi determinar a composição e variação nictimeral do ictioplâncton no estuário do rio Amazonas - Porto de Santana – Amapá - Brasil. As amostras de água subsuperficiais foram coletadas para aferir seguintes parâmetros: condutividade elétrica, pH, salinidade, turbidez, oxigênio dissolvido e temperatura .As amostragens foram realizadas em dois ciclos de 24 horas em uma estação fixa, em lua quarto crescente (Quadratura) e em lua cheia (sizígia). A coleta das amostras foi realizada com uma rede de plâncton, tipo Bongo com 0,60 m de abertura de boca, 1,50 m de comprimento e abertura de malha de 500 μm. Para determinar o volume de água filtrado foi acoplado à entrada da rede um fluxômetro mecânico, a amostra foi coletada acondicionada em potes e fixada com formol a 4%. Transportada para o Laboratório de Ecologia Aquática e Aqüicultura Tropical – LECAT, da Universidade Federal Rural da Amazônia – UFRA onde o ictioplâncton foi quantificado e identificado em nível de família. Foram quantificadas 2.776 larvas, destas, 842 foram amostradas na coleta realizada na maré de quadratura (lua crescente) e 1.924 larvas na maré de sizígia (Cheia). As larvas de peixes identificadas nas marés pertencem a sete famílias (Engraulidae, Gobiidae, Sciaenidae, Tetraodontidae, Eleotridae, Clupeidae Pristigasteridae). As famílias Clupeidae e Gobiidae ocorreram somente na maré de quadratura, enquanto que as famílias Pristigasteridae e Tetraodontidae ocorreram somente na maré de sizígia. Durante a maré de quadratura (Lua Crescente) a família mais abundante foi Engraulidae seguida por Sciaenidae e Pristigasteridae. Nas estações, a densidade variou de 137 larvas/ 100 m3 às 15h30min até 2.859 larvas/ 100 m3 na coleta das 12h30min. Para a época das amostragens há um padrão temporal de distribuição das larvas de peixe influenciado pelo período de coleta (noturno e diurno), sendo que os maiores valores ocorrem durante o dia. O elevado número de larvas registrado revelou que a área do estuário do rio Amazonas é utilizada como área de reprodução e berçário. Não há diferenças significativas na composição do ictioplâncton com a mudança da fase lunar.

The studies of this work aimed to determine the labile fractions of manganese (Mn) in natural and drainage water samples collected around the Osamu Utsumi uranium mine, located in the municipality of Caldas, south-central region of Poços de Caldas- MG, using the technique of diffusion gradient in thin films (DGT). The DGT devices were mounted with Chelex-100 resin, polyacrylamide-agarose hydrogel (conventional porosity) and cellulose acetate membrane. The device were deployed up to 48 hours in six water samples collected from different areas around the uranium mine (075, 076, 022-E, 025-E, 014, and 041). The DGT devices immersed in each sample were gradually removed after 4, 8, 12, 24 and 48 hours. The pH of the samples ranged from 3.0 to 10.5, which influenced the lability and the sampling of the analyte by the Chelex-100 resin. The results showed a linear relationship between accumulated mass and sampling time (immersion curve) for samples 014 and 025-E (pH between 6 and 8) suggesting the ability of the DGT technique for sampling the analyte. The results obtained for samples 075 and 076 (pH<5) and samples 041 and 022-E (pH around 10) were characterized by nonlinear relationships. The values obtained by DGT were compared with Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) technique using Chelex-100. For samples 014 and 025-E, there was a good agreement between the results obtained by both techniques
