Estudo in vitro do comportamento de facetas confeccionadas com artglass e targis quando submetidas à inserção e remoção de grampos circunferenciais em cromo-cobalto

Aiming to investigate in vitro the behavior of esthetic veneers placed in crows and made of the laboratory resins Artglass and Targis when submitted to insertion and removal of circunferential cobalt-chromium clasps, 24 veneer crowns were made (twelve with Artglass (Heraeus Kulzer) and twelve with Targis (Ivoclar Vivadent)), as well as the respective cobalt-chromium clasps. The crowns were then submitted to five thousand cycles of clasps insertion and removal, using a proper device. Using the verification of the force necessary to remove the clasps over the crowns during the experiment, the clasps and crowns mass variation, and the macroscopic inspection of the veneers, one may conclude that the veneers did not show a significant variation of the force required to remove the clasps over the crowns; they show a little amount of abrasion, possible to detect using a visual inspection and they show a little and variable amount of mass loss, less for that made with Artglass (average of 0,002g) and greater for that made with Targis (average of 0,006g)

Remoção de cromo de resíduos de curtumes por argilitos da formação Corumbataí - SP

The tanning wastes are characterized to be significant sources of pollution in the hydrosphere when non adjusted or disposed adequated form. That happens because this industry type uses the chromium to tan hides, and this element is present in discharges concentrations in final wastes, characterizing this waste type as dangerous, according to the Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas, através da Norma Brasileira 10.004 de 2004. Due to this, the research proposes a form to reduction chromium of the tanning wastes through the process of adsorption. For that were used mining-wastes of Corumbataí Formation clays, material commonly used in the production of ceramic products in Rio Claro (SP). They were accomplished laboratory essays that involved the preparation of different clays pulps and subsequent mixture of these with the tanning wastes, maintaining them under different mixing times and adsorption contacts. After the separation of the mixtures, the leached were chemically analyzed and it was seen the efficiency of chromium reduction and your relationship with the variation of different times of contact clays/wastes and different grain sizes used in the pulps preparation.

Avaliação da toxicidade da vinhaça utilizando Oreochromis niloticus (Perciformes: Cichlidae) como organismo teste

Contamination of rivers and lakes, waste disposed by infiltration into the soil as fertilizer, for example, has been highlighted around the world, since such compounds can contain toxic elements, causing changes in aquatic and/or terrestrial ecosystem. Due to the possible presence of these elements in these wastes, it is possible assess damage to organisms exposed through breaks in genetic material and mutations. In this sense, this work aimed at exploring the cytotoxic, mutagenic and genotoxic vinasse pontential, residue used as fertilizer, from the processing of sugar cane into alcohol, using fish (Oreochromis niloticus - Cichlidae) as a test organism. The individuals were exposed to different dilutions of vinasse in the water and later carried out analysis of their erythrocytes using the micronucleus test and nuclear abnormalities associated and the comet assay. In the first bioassay, tilapia exhibited 5% and 10% vinasse concentrations died after 48h. The number of micronucleated erythrocytes was statistically significant for the 1% vinasse concentration and also for nuclear abnormalities such as broken-egg and nuclear bud, when compared with negative and positive controls; were also significant lobed type erythrocytes, when compared to the negative control. The test results of the comet assay were not significant for 1% vinasse when compared to the negative control, due to the high rate of comets with damage control, which is unusual. The same was observed for changes as notched and blebbed type. In the second chemical analyzes conducted, the detection of heavy metals in the vinasse sample, charged only the presence of copper and chromium, the latter with a concentration 89 times higher than in the first test. Differentially the first bioassay, fish exposed to dilution of 5% did not die... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Cádmio, chumbo, cromo, mercúrio e níquel nos rios do estado de São Paulo e em peixes do Rio Sorocaba (São Paulo, Brasil)

To verify the levels of concentration of some heavy metals in fishes from Sorocaba river (São Paulo, Brazil) and evaluate if this contamination offers health risks to the fishermen, 63 samples of fishes collected from four points along the river were studied for cadmium, lead, chromium, nickel and mercury, with emphasis in this last, since it is the most toxic and most probable as a fish contaminant. Analyzing muscle samples by cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry it was shown that the fishes are not contaminated. None of the five metals studied were present in prohibitive level and the fishes could be judged secure for human consume. It was also analyzed data from four years of cadmium, lead, chromium, nickel and mercury monitoring made by CETESB, from 1997 to 2000, in water from the main rivers of the State of São Paulo. The study pointed out that the majority of the monitored rivers still present contamination by those metals in a level that requires an improvement of the pollution control actions.

Análise estrutural e morfológica de ferrita NiFe2O4 dopada com cromo

This paper reports on the effect of the substitution of Fe3+ for Cr3+ ions in the spinel lattice of the powders was investigated. Nickel ferrite powders with a NiFe2-xCrxO4 nominal composition (x = 0.0; 0.5; 1.0 and 1.5 mol of the chromium) were synthesized by combustion reaction using urea as fuel. The powders resulting were characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption by BET, SEM and Mössbauer spectroscopy (57Fe Mössbauer spectra). The results show that the substitution of the Fe3+ for Cr3+ions increased the crystalline degree of the phase, reduced the superficial area and consequently increased the particle size. The Mössbauer spectra of the samples also confirm the distribution of the particles size by the magnetic properties. Analyze of the spectra Mössbauer gives an estimate of the superparamagnetic and ferromagnetic particles behavior in each sample for several chromium concentrations.

Speciazione del cromo nei sedimenti di una laguna costiera

Il presente lavoro di tesi ha affrontato le problematiche legate alla speciazione del cromo in particolare i rischi legati alla forma esavalente che risulta particolarmente tossica per gli organismi acquatici. Sono state svolte diverse prove per la messa appunto di una metodica standar dell’US EPA “Method 3060A” indicata per l’estrazione selettiva del Cr(VI) in campioni di sedimento e suolo. Un set di campioni provenienti da sedimenti della laguna costiera della Pialassa della Baiona sono stati analizzati per quantificare i livelli cromo environmentally available, previa dissoluzione in acqua regia, e livelli di cromo esavalente per valutare l’eventuale rischio per il biota acquatico. Sia i livelli di concentrazione di cromo environmentally available confrontati con le linee guida internazionali che i livelli di cromo e Cr(VI) paragonati ai livelli di effetto ritrovati in letteratura non mostrano un potenziale rischio per gli organismi bentonici. I bassi valori di cromo esavalente sono in accordo con le condizioni riducenti tipiche di ambienti di transizione come quello di studio dove la forma chimica del cromo predominante sembra essere quella trivalente. La metodica seguita per la determinazione del cromo esavalente ha diversi limiti rappresentati dall’azione di interferenti quali AVS, Fe(II) e materia organica naturalmente presenti nei sedimenti, per questo procede ancora la ricerca di analisi di speciazione più selettive.
