Quantitative determination by HPLC of iridoids in the bark and latex of himatanthus sucuuba

The main iridoids from the bark and latex of Himatanthus sucuuba were isolated and characterised by spectroscopic methods. HPLC was used for the quantitative analyses of these iridoids and the chromatograms of bark and latex showed a similar iridoid composition. Both parts of the plant are used in folk medicine for the treatment of various ailments.

Ethnoveterinary knowledge of the inhabitants of Marajó Island, Eastern Amazonia, Brazil

There have been ethnoveterinary reports from around the world investigating plant usage in therapeutic protocols; however, there is no information regarding the ethnoveterinary practices in Brazilian Amazonia. The objective of this work was to register and document the ethnoveterinary knowledge of the inhabitants of the Island of Marajó, eastern Amazonia, Brazil. In the study, interviews were conducted with 50 individuals, with the application of semi-structured questionnaires that were quantitatively analyzed using descriptive statistic methods of frequency distribution. Use-value was calculated to determine the most important species. Samples of plants that were reported to have medicinal value were collected and identified by botanical classification. Fifty plants, distributed among 48 genera and 34 families, were indicated for 21 different medicinal uses. The family Asteraceae had the largest number of reported species; Carapa guianensis Aubl., Copaifera martii Hayne, Crescentia cujete L., Caesalpinia ferrea Mart., Chenopodium ambrosioides L., Jatropha curcas L. and Momordica charantia L. were species with highest use- value. The plant parts that were more commonly utilized for the preparation of ethnoveterinary medicines were the leaves (56%), bark (18%), roots (14%), seeds (14%) and fruit (8%). With regard to usage, tea was reported as a usage method by 56% of the informants; most preparations (90.9%) utilized only a single plant. In addition to medicinal plants, informants reported using products of animal and mineral origin. The present study contributed to the construction of an inventory of Marajó Island's ethnoveterinary plants, which might be the basis for future scientific validation studies.

Phytosterols isolated from endophytic fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides(Melanconiaceae)

ABSTRACTEndophytic fungi are fungi that colonize internal tissues of plants. There are few studies of compounds isolated from endophytic fungi of Amazon plants. Thus, the aim this study was the isolation and structural identification of sitosterol (1), stigmasterol (2), sitostenone (3), squalene (4), ergosterol (5) and ergosterol peroxide (6) from fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioidesisolated as endophytic from Virola michelli, a typical Amazon plant, used in folk medicine against skin infection. Compounds were isolated by chromatography column on silica and identified by 1H and 13C NMR and MS. The presence of phytosterols in fungi is rare and this is the first report of the isolation of the phytosterols sitosterol, stigmasterol and sitostenone from the genus Colletotrichum.

Granulometria de praias do município de Ubatuba, SP

Os parâmetros propostos por Folk e Ward (SUGUIO, 1973), diâmetro médio (Mz), desvio padrão gráfico inclusivo (σI), assimetria gráfica inclusiva (SkI) e curtose gráfica (K G), são utilizados na caracterização granulométrica de 15 praias do litoral de Ubatuba, SP. Os resultados obtidos mostram que, em geral, essas praias são de granulação fina, com material bem selecionado. As curvas de distribuição de classes de freqüência têm, geralmente, assimetria negativa e são meso ou leptocúrticas.

Mineralogia e granulometria de três latossolos da região do médio Rio São Francisco, BA

São estudadas granulometria e mineralogia da fração areia de três solos classificados como Latossol Vermelho Amarelo, da região do médio rio São Francisco, BA. Foram empregados os parâmetros estatísticos propostos por FOLK e WARD (1957), para estudo de granulometria; para estudos de mineralogia, utilizou-se o resíduo pesado da fração 250 a 50µ. Quanto a granulometria, os solos apresentam grande homogeneidade, com material moderadamente selecionado, predominando as frações finas. Mineralogicamente, são de elevada maturidade, com minerais altamente estáveis, que passaram por mais de um ciclo de sedimentação. A distribuição dos minerais pesados ao longo dos perfis sugere a presença de descontinuidades litológicas.
