The pig slaughter process involve different steps that can influence the microbiological quality of carcasses. At this, the understanding of the slaughter process on the microbiological aspects is necessary for the implementation and evaluation of critical control points. The microbiological control of the slaughter process should involve the evaluation of pathogens prevalence and levels of quality and hygiene indicator microorganisms. This study aimed at investigating the influence of steps slaughter process on the microbiological levels of pig carcasses, and evaluate if there is correlation between pathogens (Salmonella spp. and Listeria monocytogenes) and indicators (aerobic mesophilic counts, total coliforms, Escherichia coli and Enterobacteriaceae) microorganisms. A high Salmonella soroprevalence in pigs were founded before the slaughter (57.49 %). While the Salmonella prevalence in carcasses at the initial stage of the slaughter was 26.67 % and in the final stage 1.11 %, L. monocytogenes was detected only in the final washing and cooling steps, with a prevalence of 21.11 and 8.89 %, respectively. The aerobic mesophilic counts, Enterobacteriaceae, total coliforms and E. coli levels in initial steps of slaughter process were 4.25 ± 0.37; 1.25 ± 0.38; 1.10 ± 0.35 and 0.86 ± 0.36, respectively. At the end of slaughter process the results were lower (ranging from 0.16 at 2.70 log CFU/cm2). The step that most reduced microbiological levels was the scalding. The dehairing was a critical step that led to a significant increase of microorganisms levels in the process (p < 0.05). The evisceration not proved to be a critical step on the increase of microbial levels, differently of the final washing, which showed significant increases (p < 0.05) over the levels of aerobic counts, total coliforms, E. coli and enterobacterias (0.30; 0.36; 0.27 and 0.42 log respectively) and Salmonella spp. and L. monocytogenes. The chilling contributes significantly to the reduction of microbiological levels of carcasses, bringing them to levels below the all process stages, with the exception of scalding. No correlation between the hygiene indicator microorganisms used and presence of Salmonella spp. and L. monocytogenes were obtained (p < 0.05). The results show that steps in the process are critical to the sanitary profile, which implies the need to implement actions in the process to reducing the microbiological levels.

The use of cover crops is a fundamental strategy to the weed management in Southern Brazil. In highly infested areas, the herbicides use is increasing, which increases the costs of the crops production as well as the environmental contamination. Oat and velvet bean plants havecontrasting characteristics regarding to residues decomposition speed and the capacity to immobilize Nitrogen in the soil, providing distinct results of weeds suppression throughout the time, and therefore, requiring distinct management strategies before, during, and after the corn crop establishment. The general objective of the experiment was to evaluate the environmental dynamics of the herbicide atrazine, the corn grain yield, and the efficiency of the weed control, considering areas with distinct history regarding the use of mulching, levels of straw and rates of atrazine. For this, the experiment was carried out in two parts: in the first part, two trials with the corn crop were established, one using oat and the other using velvet bean as cover crops. The experimental design used for both field trials was randomized complete blocks arrangement with four replications. The factor A was constituted by four levels of straw (0; 0.75x; 1.5x; 3x) and the factor B was constituted by four rates of the herbicide atrazine (0; 2100; 4200; 8400 g a i. ha-1). Soil samples were collected for greenhouse trialsto determine the persistence. Atrazine leaching evaluation was performed by chromatography using samples collected over the soil profile.In the field, the weed density, the fresh and dry weight and the yield of the corn were evaluated. In the greenhouse trials, the main variables evaluated were plant height and injury caused by the herbicide toxicity. In the second part, soils with distinct covering history were sampled, and the mineralization and sorption studies, both with 14C-atrazine, were conducted in the laboratory. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks arrangement with four replications. The results from the field experiment show that the high levels of straw above ground, isolated, were not efficient to control completely the weeds, and that high levels of velvet bean`s straw decreased the corn potential yield. The greenhouse trials showed that high levels of oat straw prevent the scape of atrazine to soil, this effect of oat straw upon the herbicide availability on soil was detected up to 12 days after spraying. The half-life of atrazine sprayed over oat straw varied from 7 to 14 days after spraying, while the half-life of atrazine sprayed over velvet bean varied from 5 to 14 days after spraying. Increasing oat straw levels presents the capacity to reduce the lixiviation of atrazine in the soil profile, however, this effect was not verified when using velvet bean straw, because the herbicide was not detected in the soil profile, at 21 days after spraying. The chromatographic analysis indicate thatthe atrazine concentrates closer to the soil surface regardless of amount of straw, not being detected deeper than 8 cm in the soil. The accumulated mineralization of 14C-arazine sprayed over V. sativa is superior if compared to soils with S. cereale or non-covered soils. The sorption coefficient of atrazine is superior when sprayed over straw than over the soil.

A ocratoxina A é um composto formado a partir do metabolismo secundário de fungos dos gêneros Aspergillus e Penicillium. Uma vez que a presença dessa micotoxina nos alimentos causa sérios danos à saúde humana e animal, surge o interesse pelo desenvolvimento de métodos que visem a redução dos seus níveis em diferentes matrizes. Diversos processos de descontaminação têm sido propostos, sendo que os métodos de redução biológica tem recebido destaque. Esses métodos consistem na aplicação de micro-organismos ou de suas enzimas, o que gera a biotransformação ou degradação da toxina produzindo metabólitos com menor ou nenhuma toxicidade. Diante disso, o objetivo geral do trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da peroxidase na redução dos níveis de ocratoxina A. As enzimas peroxidases testadas foram a comercial e a obtida do farelo de arroz. Para a extração enzimática foram utilizadas as frações granulométricas do farelo de arroz de 48 a 100 mesh, sendo estas frações caracterizadas quimicamente. A peroxidase foi extraída do farelo de arroz em tampão 10 mM pH 5,0 e purificada por partição trifásica, obtendo 77,1% de recuperação e 9,2 para o fator de purificação. O método utilizado para a extração da ocratoxina A do sistema aquoso foi por partição líquido-líquido utilizando como solvente o clorofórmio, sendo esse método validado segundo os parâmetros de linearidade (0,1 a 20 ng mL-1), coeficientes de correlação (0,9997) e de determinação (0,9994), e limites de detecção (0,02) e quantificação (0,03). A afinidade entre as peroxidases e a ocratoxina A foi verificada segundo os parâmetros de KM e Vmáx, resultando em 0,00027 mM e 0,000015 mM min-1, respectivamente, para a peroxidase comercial, e 0,0065 mM e 0,000031 mM min-1 para a obtida do farelo de arroz. Com relação aos percentuais de redução de ocratoxina A, foram avaliadas 3 proporções enzima:substrato (1:10, 1:5 e 8:1 para a comercial e 1:10, 1:5 e a com atividade de 0,063 U mL-1 para a do farelo), sendo que as proporções que forneceram maior redução foi a de 8:1 para a enzima comercial (0,063 U mL-1) e a correspondente a 0,063 U mL-1 para a enzima obtida do farelo. Os percentuais de redução de ocratoxina A foram de 59% para a peroxidase comercial em 300 min e 41% para a peroxidase do farelo de arroz em 1440 min. O efeito de adsorção da ocratoxina A pela enzima peroxidase foi descartado uma vez que foi realizada a sua hidrólise com a enzima pepsina e verificado um percentual de 2,7% de adsorção, demonstrando que a redução foi por ação enzimática. A enzima obtida de farelo de arroz com atividade de 0,063 U mL-1 foi aplicada em suco de uva tinto e branco. Observou-se que para o primeiro não houve redução significativa, enquanto que para o segundo a redução foi de 17%. Neste trabalho, então, foi possível verificar a capacidade de redução dos níveis da ocratoxina A pela enzima peroxidase, tanto em sistema aquoso como no suco de uva integral branco.

O arroz (Oryza sativa, L.), como todos os cereais, pode ser contaminado por fungos responsáveis por danos tecnológicos, nutricionais e toxicológicos, dentre eles a produção de micotoxinas. Diversas toxinas fúngicas produzidas pelo gênero Fusarium tem sido relatadas em arroz, no entanto a fumonisina B1 (FB1) é pouco estudada neste grão. As principais características da FB1 é a alta solubilidade em solventes polares, estabilidade a altas temperaturas além de efeitos neurotóxicos e carcinogênicos. Assim o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito do tratamento térmico e hidrotérmico nos teores de fumonisina B1 e nas características químicas de arroz comercial. Na primeira etapa do trabalho foi adaptado um método para detecção e quantificação de FB1 em arroz cru e após cocção, por HPLC-FL. O método foi avaliado quanto aos indicativos de eficiência destacando-se o LOD (30 µg.kg-1) e a recuperação ( 90% para arroz cru e 86% pra arroz cozido). Na segunda etapa realizou-se o levantamento de ocorrência de FB1 em 05 diferentes amostras comerciais de arroz integral, branco e parboilizado da cidade de Rio Grande, RS, totalizando 9 amostras. Foi detectada a presença de FB1 em 7 das 9 amostras, sendo que os maiores índices foram encontrados em amostras de arroz parboilizado e integral apresentando níveis de contaminação entre 30 e 170 µg.kg-1. A terceira etapa do trabalho consistiu no estudo do efeito de tratamentos térmicos sobre os níveis de FB1 em amostras após aplicação de calor. Foram testados tratamento hidrotérmico com evaporação, tratamento hidrotérmico com autoclavagem e tratamento térmico seco. O maior nível de redução dos teores iniciais de FB1 foi 82,8% quando se empregou tratamento térmico seco a 125 °C/3 min. Ainda foram avaliados os efeitos do t ratamento hidrotérmico com evaporação de água na composição química e na digestibilidade protéica. Esta característica proporcionou aumento de até 100% na digestibilidade in vitro das proteínas e reduziu em média 73% do teor de contaminação com FB1.

O estudo apresentado teve como objetivos planificar e implementar e analisar uma proposta didática alternativa para a abordagem dos níveis macroscópico, simbólico e sub-microscópico, indispensáveis para a compreensão das reações químicas, salientando-se o facto de não se explorar, nos manuais e na prática, todo o potencial de uma reação química muito usual. A proposta utiliza uma diferente abordagem da tradicional reação de precipitação do iodeto de chumbo, centrada em questões-problema: “Ocorreu uma reação química?” e “Será possível dissolver o precipitado?”. A metodologia foi qualitativa e centrou-se na investigação-ação colaborativa. Perante as questões problema, os alunos fizeram previsões, sugeriram e realizaram procedimentos experimentais de carácter investigativo para as testar e fundamentaram as respostas através da comunicação oral e da elaboração de esquemas pictóricos (livremente), estes últimos, para ilustrar o nível sub-microscópico. Analisaram-se conjuntamente os esquemas e os dados da observação direta. Os resultados evidenciam que os alunos: identificam a ocorrência da reação química sensorialmente (visualização do aparecimento de uma substância colorida após a junção de duas soluções incolores - nível macroscópico), representam a reação química utilizando a simbologia química (nível simbólico) mas apresentam algumas dificuldades na interpretação sub-microscópica.

Due to the high supply and its attractive cost, the poultry litter has been used in the southwestern region of Parana to the improvement of soil fertility seeking greater production of grains and pastures. However, the use without technical knowledge can minimize the benefits of poultry litter or even cause undesirable effects on soil, environmental pollution and also productivity losses in the used crops. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of different times of poultry litter application, predating the winter crop, associated with increasing levels, about soil chemical properties, release of nutrients and crop performances in four consecutive years (2011-2014). In the first three years the experimental design was randomized blocks with a split plot system and four replications. In the main plots were tested four poultry litter application times preceding the wheat production: 0, 15, 30 and 45 days before sowing (DAS); in the subplots were applied four poultry litter levels (wet basis): 0, 4, 8 and 12 Mg ha-1. Last year one more subdivision of plots was done, evaluating the use or not of nitrogen in coverage in wheat, at a dose of 100 kg N ha-1. The wheat cultivar used in the four years was the BRS 220. In three years it was evaluated the residual effect on soybean production (cultivar - BMX Turbo RR) and in one year on the beans. The chemical soil attributes were evaluated at four depths 0-2,5cm, 2,5-5cm, 5-10cm and 10-20cm, and also the rate of decomposition and nutrient release of poultry litter and the crop productivity. The different times of application concerning the poultry litter had little influence on the studied variables, demonstrating that the producer does not need to have a specific date (before planting) to the application of poultry litter. Potassium was fully released 60 days after the allocation of litter bags into the field; for nitrogen and phosphorus the release was slower. The use of increasing levels of poultry litter increased the levels of various soil elements, highlighting the potassium which reached 20 cm deep in the second year of evaluation. The increase in pH and in the base saturation occurred only in the upper layers, while the phosphorus reached 10 cm deep in the third year of the study. It was observed increased pH and base saturation. The use of increasing doses of poultry litter contributed to the wheat plant nutrition, significantly increasing the weight of a thousand grains, and the grain yield of wheat in all the evaluated years; the nitrogen fertilization in coverage also had significant effect for the fourth evaluated year. Also there was a significant response from the residual effect of poultry litter for crops planted in summer for both soybeans and beans.

As florestas de galeria vêm sendo fragmentadas, levando à perda de sua elevada diversidade, tornando-se imprescindíveis estudos que avaliem o comportamento ecológico de suas espécies arbóreas. O presente estudo teve como objetivo testar a hipótese de que a produção de mudas de Copaifera langsdorffii é influenciada pela luminosidade do ambiente, apresentando maior qualidade e desenvolvimento inicial em níveis intermediários de luz. As plantas foram testadas em pleno sol, 30%, 50%, 70% e 90% de sombreamento, avaliando-se número de folhas, altura e diâmetro aos 60, 90, 120 e 191 dias após a emergência (DAE) e massa seca aérea e radicular e, índice de qualidade de Dickson ao final do experimento (191 DAE). O efeito dos níveis de sombreamento foi analisado por meio de análise de regressão. As plantas apresentaram boa plasticidade de crescimento nos diferentes níveis de luminosidade, mas com melhor desenvolvimento e qualidade (IQD) em 50% de sombreamento, corroborando a hipótese testada. A luminosidade ou sombreamento excessivo devem ser evitados para garantir a produção de mudas mais vigorosas de Copaifera langsdorffii. Assim, recomenda-se a produção de mudas desta espécie sob 50% de sombreamento para favorecer a sua qualidade e possivelmente garantir melhor sobrevivência em campo.

The caprine milk is a product of high biological value and high digestibility. Due to these characteristics it is quite used by newly born children that are not breastfed or that are intolerant to the bovine milk. The vitamin deficiency is a public health problem in underdeveloped areas as the Northeast of Brazil and where areas the caprine ones adapt very well. The present study was led to analyze the influence of the feeding in the vitamin levels in the caprine milk. The animals used were the races Saanen and Murciana, divided in three groups. The first group with 38 animals of race Saanen and the second with 30 animals of race Murciana were, fed with concentrated and voluminous. A third group with 20 animals of the race Saanen was fed exclusively with voluminous. The four group was added with 10. 000 UI of retinol palmitato, administered directly, like capsule, in the mouth of animal. Parallel it was verified the level of retinol of milk in the beginning and final of the sucked, in the goats of the second group (race Murciana n =30). The retinol of caprine milk was determined through the system of liquid cromatografia of high efficiency (HPLC). The retinol levels in the studied groups were respectively: first (38. 5 ± 12. 7 μg/100ml), second (40. 5 ± 9. 7 μg/100ml); third, with 20 animals of race Saanen fed exclusively with voluminous (23. 1 ± 6. 7 μg/100ml) and in the group a, suplementation with 10. 000 UI of retinol palmitato (43,7 ± 18,8 μg/100ml) before, and (61,9 ± 26,9 μg/100ml) after the supplementation. It was not found significant difference between the averages from animals of the first and second group, that were fed with the same concentrate diet and voluminous, showing that the retinol levels in the milk of these two races are equivalent. Already in the animals of the first and third group that they were fed with different diets, in those which diet was just voluminous, a drastic reduction was verified in the retinol levels. In relation to the retinol of the milk in different moments from the same sucked, it was observed in the beginning of the breast-feeding (22. 6 ± 9. 8 μg/100ml) and at the end of the sucked (49. 6 ± 14. 7μg/100ml), being the difference between the averages, statistically significant (p < 0,0001). Already in the animals that were supplemented, a significant increase was observed in the retinol concentration, being obtained a medium response of 41,85%

The vitamins A and E are recognizably important in the initial stages of life and the newborn depends on nutritional adequacy of breast milk to meet their needs. These vitamins share routes of transport to the tissues and antagonistic effects have been observed in animals after supplementation with vitamin A. This study aimed to verify the effect of maternal supplementation with vitamin A megadose (200,000 UI) in the immediate post-partum on the concentration of alpha-tocopherol in colostrum. Healthy parturient women attended at a public maternity natalensis were recruited for the study and divided into two groups: control (n = 37) and supplemented (n = 36). Blood samples of colostrum and milk were collected until 12 hours after delivery. The women of the supplemented group was administered a retynil palmitate capsule and 24 hours after the first collection was obtained the 2nd sample of colostrum in two groups for analysis of retinol and alpha-tocopherol in milk. The mean retinol concentration of 50,7 ± 14,4 μg/dL (Mean ± standard deviation) and alpha-tocopherol of 1217.4 ± 959 mg/dL in the serum indicate the nutritional status biochemical appropriate. Supplementation with retynil palmitate resulted in increase not only retinol levels in the colostrum of the supplemented group (p = 0.002), but also the concentration of alpha-tocopherol (p = 0.04), changing from 1456.6 ± 1095.8 mg/dL to 1804.3 ± 1432.0 mg/dL (milk 0 and 24 respectively) compared to values in the control group, 984.6 ± 750.0 mg/dL and 1175.0 ± 730.8 mg/dL. The women had different responses to supplementation, influenced by baseline levels of retinol in colostrum. Those with previous by low levels of retinol in colostrum (<60 mg/dL) had increased the concentration of alpha-tocopherol in milk, whereas those with adequate levels (> 60 mg/dL), showed a reduction after supplementation. Supplementation with retinol palmitate is an important intervention in situations of high risk for vitamin A deficiency, when considering the need to maternal supplementation, since the excess vitamin can offer unfavorable interactions between nutrients essential for the mother-child group
