Araucaria angustifolia apresenta redução da taxa de crescimento durante o ano, podendo ser resposta às condições ambientais desfavoráveis, como ocorre nas fruteiras de clima temperado, que apresentam dormência de gemas como forma de sobrevivência. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a dinâmica da atividade respiratória de meristemas apicais de ramos plagiotrópicos de Araucaria angustifolia. Foram coletadas amostras de 0,4 g de brotações terminais de ramos plagiotrópicos de plantas jovens e adultas, as quais foram mantidas em 5 mL de solução de cloreto de 2,3,5 trifeniltetrazólio (1,2%) em sala de crescimento a 25°C. Em seguida, foram mantidas em 4 mL de álcool etílico absoluto para leitura por espectrofotometria da absorbância a 560 nm. A atividade respiratória de meristemas apicais de ramos plagiotrópicos de Araucaria angustifolia é variável durante o ano. A maior atividade respiratória ocorre na metade da primavera e a menor atividade respiratória ocorre no inverno, em plantas jovens e adultas. Plantas adultas permanecem em alta atividade respiratória por um período maior, até o início do verão.

Os métodos tradicionais para a quantificação de clorofilas implicam na destruição das folhas, além de serem demorados e dispendiosos. Uma alternativa aos métodos destrutivos é o uso de medidores portáteis, dentre eles o SPAD 502, que mede a intensidade da cor verde das folhas, resultando no índice SPAD (Soil Plant Analysis Development). No entanto, o índice SPAD deve ser ajustado para o teor de clorofilas, conforme a espécie de interesse. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi calibrar o índice SPAD para a quantificação de clorofilas em folhas de plantas de vime ( Salix viminalis ). Folhas desta espécie, com tonalidade variando de verde-amarelada (clorótica) a verde-escura, foram avaliadas individualmente com o SPAD-502, seguido de quantificações destrutivas dos teores de clorofilas a, b e totais, expressos em unidade de área e massa fresca foliar. Houve elevado coeficiente de determinação (R²) entre os valores de índice SPAD e os teores de clorofila a, b e totais nas folhas, expressos em μg cm-2 de área foliar (R² de 0,86; 0,88 e 0,93, respectivamente) e entre os valores de índice SPAD e os teores de clorofilas b e totais, expressos em μg g-1 de massa fresca (R² 0,79 e 0,81, respectivamente). Os resultados mostram que existe viabilidade no uso do clorofilômetro SPAD 502, como alternativa aos métodos destrutivos, para a quantificação de clorofilas (em unidade de área; μg cm-2) em folhas de vimeiro.

Two b-N-acetylhexosaminidases (F11 e F15) were purified from Echinometra lucunter gonads extracts. The purified enzymes were obtained using ammonium sulfate fractionation, followed by gel filtration chromatographies (Sephacryl S-200, Sephadex G-75 and Sephacryl S-200). The F11 fraction was purified 192.47 -fold with a 28.5% yield, and F15 fraction 85.41 -fold with a 32.3% yield. The molecular weights of the fractions were 116 kDa for F11 and 42 kDa for F15 using SDS-PAGE. In Sephacryl S-200, F15 was 84 kDa, indicating that it is a dimeric protein. When p-nitrophenyl-β-D-glycosaminide was used as substrate, we determined an apparent Km of 0.257 mM and Vmax of 0.704 for F11 and for F15 the Km was 0.235 mM and Vmax of 0.9 mM of product liberated by hour. Both enzymes have optimum pH and temperature respectively at 5.0 and 45 °C. The enzymes showed inhibition by silver nitrate, while the glucuronic acid was a potent activator. The high inhibition of F15 by N-etylmaleimide indicates that sulphydril groups are involved in the catalysis of synthetic substrate

Protein and caloric malnutrition has been considered one of the most concerned endemic diseases in Brazil and in the world. It has been known that depletion or reduction of proteins as far as meals are concerned can steer irreversible damages upon several organic systems. This study had as aim evaluate the effects the low-protein diet had over the formation and composition of the teeth components. 18 females and 6 males were used for the experiment. 12 from the 18 females had undertaken the low-protein diet (DH) for 03 weeks and the other 6, which remained, and those males had undertaken a controlled diet (DC) for the same period. All animals had the diets during their mating, pregnancy and lactation cycle. As soon as the offsprings had been born, 10 young males and females of each group faced a disease hood analysis to check the teeth germs of their lower fore teeth. The rest of the group had their lactation cycle normally 60 days. Then they were put to death and had their lower fore teeth removed both to be analyzed through a scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) of the structure alterations and to have their calcium checked by an atomic absorption of the phosphorus vanadate-molibdate method and by other minerals EDX method. The animals livers were removed to have their hepatic proteins analyzed as well. The histopatologic study showed that at first day of birth, all animals had their lower fore teeth come out. It was verified that 90% of the animals teeth were in an apposition and calcification period and it was possible to observe the dentin formation from 60% of the 90% already mentioned. Through the SEM method it could be realized that 90% of the animals of the DH group had their lower fore teeth easily broken and no definite shape. In this same group itself, it was also observed long micro fissures 369,66 nm ± 3,45 while the DC group had fissures of 174 nm ± 5,72. Now regarding the calcium and phosphorus concentration, it could be noticed that there was a great reduction of these components and other minerals in the DH group. Almost all minerals, except for the Cl and K, presented higher levels in the DC group enamel.The reduction of the protein input greatly influenced the offsprings´ weight and height. However the hepatic proteins had no important difference between the groups what can make one believe that those animals suffered from protein malnutrition of marasmic kind

Thin commercial aluminum electrolytic and passed through reactions was obtained with anodic alumina membranes nanopores. These materials have applications in areas recognized electronic, biomedical, chemical and biological weapons, especially in obtaining nanostructures using these membranes as a substrate or template for processing nanowires, nanodots and nanofibers for applications noble. Previous studies showed that the membranes that have undergone heat treatment temperature to 1300° C underwent changes in morphology, crystal structure and optical properties. This aim, this thesis, a study of the heat treatment of porous anodic alumina membranes, in order to obtain and to characterize the behavior changes structures during the crystallization process of the membranes, at temperatures ranging between 300 and 1700° C. It was therefore necessary to mount a system formed by a tubular furnace resistive alumina tube and controlled environment, applying flux with special blend of Ag-87% and 13% N2, in which argon had the role of carrying out the oxygen nitrogen system and induce the closing of the pores during the densification of the membrane. The duration of heat treatment ranged from 60 to 15 minutes, at temperatures from 300 to 1700° C respectively. With the heat treatment occurred: a drastic reduction of porosity, grain growth and increased translucency of the membrane. For the characterization of the membranes were analyzed properties: Physical - thermogravimetric, X-ray diffraction, BET surface area; morphological - SEM, EDS through compositional and, optical absorbance, and transmittance in the UV-VIS, and FTIR. The results using the SEM showed that crystallization has occurred, densification and significant changes in membrane structure, as well as obtaining microtube, the BET analysis showed a decrease in specific surface area of the membranes has to 44.381 m2.g-1 to less than 1.8 m2.g-1 and in the analysis of transmittance and absorbance was found a value of 16.5% in the range of 800 nm, characteristic of the near infrared and FTIR have confirmed the molecular groups of the material. Thus, one can say that the membranes were mixed characteristics and properties which qualify for use in gas filtration system, as well as applications in the range of optical wavelength of the infra-red, and as a substrate of nanomaterials. This requires the continuation and deepening of additional study

Uma vez que as técnicas cromatográficas permitem a separação, quantificação e identificação dos compostos organicos parentais e dos produtos de degradação e, considerando-se que a maioria dos fungicidas benzimidazois absorvem fortemente a luz ultra-violeta, testou-se o método de Cromatografia Liquida de Alta Eficiência (CLAE), para quantificar a biodegradabilidade do fungicida carbendazim. Neste experimento foi utilizada uma linhagem de Alternaria alternata isolada de solos agrícolas suplementados com benomil. Os frascos com os microorganismos crescidos foram repicados para frascos contendo meios de cultura batata-dextrose (50%) + carbendazim (100mg/ml). Estes foram incubados sob agitacao a 28oC mais ou menos 1oC por períodos de 2,4,7,15 e 30 dias. Apos extração e purificação das amostras procedeu-se a analise cromatográfica. Para tanto utilizou-se uma coluna de troca cationica nas seguintes condições: temperatura da coluna: 40oC, fase móvel: fosfato de amônio 0,0125M com fluxo de 0,2ml por minuto e detector de absorbância operando a 280nm. Sob estas condições, o tempo de retenção de carbendazim e 2 amino-benzimidazol foi de aproximadamente 4,5 e 6,3 minutos, respectivamente. A quantificação foi feita utilizando-se regressão linear de curvas de calibração obtidas em soluções padrões de carbendazim versus a resposta (altura ou área do pico), obtida no cromatograma. A confirmação da identidade do pico com alto grau de confiança foi possível pela comparação do tempo de retenção e o espectro de absorbância em ultra-violeta do carbendazim. Este espectro, em diferentes condições de cultivo de A alternata, indicou índices de similaridade da molécula variando de 0,99 a 1 entre as diferentes amostras. Por este método foram obtidas recuperações acima de 70% da concentração inicial de carbendazim. A degradação de carbendazim foi de 66,4% aos dois dias de incubação.

A espectroscopia no infravermelho médio com transformada de Fourier (FTIR) é uma técnica alternativa de quantificação rápida, fácil manuseio, baixo custo e ampla aplicabilidade. O presente estudo utilizou-se da FTIR associada à análise de regressão linear pelo método dos mínimos quadrados e análise gráfica dos espectrogramas para quantificar diferentes concentrações de metanol, etanol e propanol em soluções-padrão. As concentrações das soluções foram 0,1%; 0,25%; 0,5%; 1%; 2%; 3%; 4%; 5%; 10%; 20%; 30%; 40%; 50%; 60%;75% e 99,9 % de metanol, etanol e propanol. Observaram-se picos de absorbância de 0,106 para metanol; 0,070 para etanol e 0,143 para propanol, que correspondem aos números de onda 1017,0; 1043,7 e 1125,7 cm-1, respectivamente. A relação absorbância vs. concentração de álcoois metanol, etanol, e propanol mostrou as seguintes equações: y = 0,0055x + 0,0427 com R2 de 0,9893; y = 0,0061x + 0,0928 com R2 de 0,9937 e y = 0,002x + 0,0475 com R2 de 0,9938, descrevendo a concentração de álcool para um determinado volume de solução. A técnica mostrou boa aplicabilidade na determinação de álcoois metanol, metano e propanol na faixa de concentração de 2% a 60%.
