Biodiesel is an alternative fuel, renewable, biodegradable and nontoxic. The transesterification of vegetable oils or animal fat with alcohol is most common form of production of this fuel. The procedure for production of biodiesel occurs most commonly through the transesterification reaction in which catalysts are used to accelerate and increase their income and may be basic, acid or enzyme. The use of homogeneous catalysis requires specific conditions and purification steps of the reaction products (alkyl ester and glycerol) and removal of the catalyst at the end of the reaction. As an alternative to improve the yield of the transesterification reaction, minimize the cost of production is that many studies are being conducted with the application of heterogeneous catalysis. The use of nano-structured materials as catalysts in the production of biodiesel is a biofuel alternative for a similar to mineral diesel. Although slower, can esterify transesterified triglycerides and free fatty acids and suffer little influence of water, which may be present in the raw material. This study aimed at the synthesis, characterization and application of nano-structured materials as catalysts in the transesterification reaction of soybean oil to produce biodiesel by ethylic route. The type material containing SBA-15 mesoporous lanthanum embedded within rightly Si / La = 50 was used catalyst. Solid samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption and desorption. For the transesterification process, we used a molar ratio of 20:1 alcohol and oil with 0.250 g of catalyst at 60°C and times of 6 hours of reaction. It was determined the content of ethyl esters by H-NMR analysis and gas chromatography. It was found that the variable of conversion obtained was 80%, showing a good catalytic activity LaSBA-15 in the transesterification of vegetable oils via ethylic route

The program PROBIODIESEL from the Ministry of Science and Technology has substantially increased glycerine, obtained as a sub-product of biodiesel production process, making it necessary to seek alternatives for the use of this co-product. On the other hand, herbicides although play a role of fundamental importance in the agricultural production system in force, have been under growing concern among the various segments of society because of their potential environmental risk. In this work, we used glycerin in microemulsion systems for application of herbicides, to improve efficiency and lower environmental pollution caused by the loss of those products to the environment. To obtain the systems of microemulsinados were used Unitol L90 NP and Renex 40 as surfactants, butanol as co-surfactant, coconut oil as oil phase and aqueous phase as we used solutions of glycerin + water. Through the determination of phase diagrams, the microemulsion region was found in the system E (L90 Unitol, coconut oil and glycerin + water 1:1). Three points were chosen to the aqueous phase rich in characterization and application in the solubilization of glyphosate and atrazine. Three experiments were performed in Horta, Department of Plant Sciences, Plant Science Sector, UFERSA, Mossoró-RN. The first experiment was conducted in randomized complete blocks with 20 treatments and four replications. The treatments consisted of five doses of the herbicide glyphosate (0.0, 0.45, 0.9, 1.35 and 1.8 L ha-1) diluted with four sauces: C1, C2, C3 (microemulsions) and C4 (water). The phytotoxicity of Brachiaria brizantha was measured at 7, 14, 28 and 60 DAA (days after application). At 60 DAA, we evaluated the biomass of plants. The second experiment was developed in randomized complete blocks with 20 treatments and four repetitions. The treatments consisted of five doses of the herbicide atrazine (0.0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.6 and 2.4 L ha-1) diluted with four sauces: C1, C2, C3 (microemulsions) and C4 (water). The phytotoxicity on Zea mays and Talinum paniculatum was evaluated at 2, 7, 20 DAA. The experiment III was developed in randomized complete blocks with 16 treatments and three repetitions. The treatments consisted of 16 combinations among the constituents of the microemulsion: Unitol L90 surfactant (0.0, 1.66, 5.0, 15 %) and glycerin (0.0, 4.44, 13.33 and 40.0 %). The phytotoxicity on Zea mays was evaluated at 1, 7 and 14 DAA. At 14 DAA, we evaluated the biomass of plants. The control plants using the microemulsions was lower than in the water due to the poisoning caused by the initial microemulsions in the leaves of the plants, a fact that hinders the absorption and translocation of the herbicide. There was no toxicity in Zea mays plants caused by the herbicide, however, were highly intoxicated by microemulsions. T. paniculatum was better controlled in spraying with the microemulsions, regardless of the dose of the herbicide. The glycerine did not cause plant damage. Higher poisoning the plants are caused by tensoactive Unitol L90 and higher rates occur with the use of higher concentrations of surfactant and glycerin, or microemulsion. The microemulsions used hampered the action of glyphosate in controlling B. brizantha and caused severe poisoning in corn, and these poisonings attributed mainly to the action of surfactant

Ionic liquids (ILs) are organic compounds liquid at room temperature, good electrical conductors, with the potential to form as a means for electrolyte on electrolysis of water, in which the electrodes would not be subjected to such extreme conditions demanding chemistry [1]. This paper describes the synthesis, characterization and study of the feasibility of ionic liquid ionic liquid 1-methyl-3(2,6-(S)-dimethyloct-2-ene)-imidazole tetrafluoroborate (MDI-BF4) as electrolyte to produce hydrogen through electrolysis of water. The MDI-BF4 synthesized was characterized by thermal methods of analysis (Thermogravimetric Analysis - TG and Differential Scanning Calorimetry - DSC), mid-infrared spectroscopy with Fourier transform by method of attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of hydrogen (NMR 1H) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Where thermal methods were used to calculate the yield of the synthesis of MDI-BF4 which was 88.84%, characterized infrared spectroscopy functional groups of the compound and the binding B-F 1053 cm-1; the NMR 1H analyzed and compared with literature data defines the structure of MDI-BF4 and the current density achieved by MDI-BF4 in the voltammogram shows that the LI can conduct electrical current indicating that the MDI-BF4 is a good electrolyte, and that their behavior does not change with the increasing concentration of water

As biguanidas são um grupo de compostos com diversas atividades biológicas. Recentemente, esta família de compostos tem sido estudada não só pela sua atividade hipoglicemiante, mas também pela sua atividade anti-proliferativa. Um dos objetivos deste estudo foi a síntese de biguanidas, com cadeias laterais com diferentes estruturas e grupos funcionais. O trabalho desenvolvido permitiu a síntese de diversas biguanidas, tendo sido isolados quatro compostos. Outro dos objetivos deste estudo foi avaliar a atividade anti-proliferativa de biguanidas, na linha celular MDST8. Para esse efeito, foi desenvolvido inicialmente um método de quantificação celular com base na atividade ATPásica, testado nas linhas celulares MDST8, MCF7 e BRIN-BD11, tendo sido utilizado como referência a quantificação pelo método das desidrogenases. Os compostos estudados com melhor atividade anti-proliferativa apresentaram IC50 da ordem de 2,5 – 2,9 x10-3 M. Estes valores foram observados em biguanidas cujos grupos substituintes possuíam cadeias hidrocarbonadas cíclicas, alifáticas ou aromáticas p-substituídas, na sua estrutura; Abstract: Synthesis of biguanides and evaluation of their biologic activity in tumor cell lines Biguanides are a group of compounds which have diverse biological activities.

Sedimentos de mangue contaminados ou não com produtos derivados do petróleo foram avaliados quanto à atividade microbiana e enzimática. Os maiores valores de C da biomassa microbiana foram obtidos nas áreas mais próximas ao mar, independentemente da contaminação. Os valores obtidos foram, em média, 73% maiores do que o observado para a área mais longe do mar. Os sedimentos da área contaminada não apresentaram menores valores de Cmic/Corg e nem maiores valores de qCO2 o que demonstra o desenvolvimento de uma população de microrganismos bem adaptada às condições reinantes. É interessante que trabalhos posteriores estudem a diversidade destes microrganismos e o possível impacto que estas mudanças poderiam causar no caso de se adotar estratégias para recuperação desta área.

Polissacarídeos, como quitosana, são muito empregados para a obtenção de nanopartículas (NP), mas, a concentração e o tipo de ácido para solubilizar a quitosana pode influenciar na qualidade. Isto também influenciará na eficiência de encapsulação de princípios ativos, e.g., óleo essencial e polifenóis. Assim, para otimizar os parâmetros de síntese de NP, foram feitas análises de condutividade, tamanho de partículas e morfologia em diferentes concentrações de ácido acético e clorídrico (1,0%; 0,5% e 0,1%). Com as análises de condutividade, observou-se que há excesso de ácido na concentração de 1% e isto demanda mais adição de tripolifosfato de sódio (TPP). NP, com tamanho desejável em torno de 200 nm, podem ser obtida empregando menos ácido (0,1%) e também menor quantidade de TPP.
