O experimento foi realizado com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito da idade sobre o potencial de degradação dos diferentes tecidos da lâmina foliar e do colmo de capim-braquiária (Brachiaria decumbens), capim-gordura (Melinis minutiflora) e capim-tifton 85 (Cynodon sp). Foram amostradas a 7ª (capim-braquiária e capim-gordura) e a 11ª (capim-tifton 85) lâminas foliares, no dia da exposição da lígula e 20 dias após. Por meio de observações ao microscópio foram estimadas a extensão da digestão in vitro dos tecidos da lâmina e do colmo e a redução na espessura da parede de células do esclerênquima do colmo. Lâminas foliares e segmentos de colmos jovens apresentaram maiores áreas digeridas. Permaneceram intactos os tecidos com células de parede espessada e lignificada, a bainha parenquimática dos feixes, o esclerênquima, o xilema e a epiderme do colmo. Tecidos com células de parede delgada, normalmente não-lignificada, o mesofilo, o floema e o parênquima, desapareceram completamente. O avanço na idade reduziu a digestão do mesofilo, em lâminas de capim-braquiária e capim-gordura, e do parênquima em colmos, principalmente de capim-gordura. A epiderme na lâmina foliar foi parcialmente digerida, independentemente da idade e da espécie. Embora aparentemente intactas, células esclerenquimáticas do colmo sofreram redução da espessura da parede com a incubação em líquido ruminal. A porcentagem de redução variou de 7 a 37% e a taxa de redução da espessura de 0,007 a 0,018 µm/h.

The progresses of the Internet and telecommunications have been changing the concepts of Information Technology IT, especially with regard to outsourcing services, where organizations seek cost-cutting and a better focus on the business. Along with the development of that outsourcing, a new model named Cloud Computing (CC) evolved. It proposes to migrate to the Internet both data processing and information storing. Among the key points of Cloud Computing are included cost-cutting, benefits, risks and the IT paradigms changes. Nonetheless, the adoption of that model brings forth some difficulties to decision-making, by IT managers, mainly with regard to which solutions may go to the cloud, and which service providers are more appropriate to the Organization s reality. The research has as its overall aim to apply the AHP Method (Analytic Hierarchic Process) to decision-making in Cloud Computing. There to, the utilized methodology was the exploratory kind and a study of case applied to a nationwide organization (Federation of Industries of RN). The data collection was performed through two structured questionnaires answered electronically by IT technicians, and the company s Board of Directors. The analysis of the data was carried out in a qualitative and comparative way, and we utilized the software to AHP method called Web-Hipre. The results we obtained found the importance of applying the AHP method in decision-making towards the adoption of Cloud Computing, mainly because on the occasion the research was carried out the studied company already showed interest and necessity in adopting CC, considering the internal problems with infrastructure and availability of information that the company faces nowadays. The organization sought to adopt CC, however, it had doubt regarding the cloud model and which service provider would better meet their real necessities. The application of the AHP, then, worked as a guiding tool to the choice of the best alternative, which points out the Hybrid Cloud as the ideal choice to start off in Cloud Computing. Considering the following aspects: the layer of Infrastructure as a Service IaaS (Processing and Storage) must stay partly on the Public Cloud and partly in the Private Cloud; the layer of Platform as a Service PaaS (Software Developing and Testing) had preference for the Private Cloud, and the layer of Software as a Service - SaaS (Emails/Applications) divided into emails to the Public Cloud and applications to the Private Cloud. The research also identified the important factors to hiring a Cloud Computing provider

There are a number of damaging mechanisms that various materials can suffer in service. However, when working with polymer composite materials, this is something that requires analysis, especially when exposed to adverse environmental conditions. Thus, the objective of the present thesis is the study of the direct influence of environmental aging and the form of hybridization of the reinforcement woven on the structural stability, surfacedegradation and fracture process of polymer composites laminates. For this, the development of two polymer composite laminates was necessary, where one of them was reinforced with a bi-directional woven with hybrid strandsofkevlar-49/glass-Efibers, and the other also with a bi-directionalwoven, however with weft and warpformed of alternating strandsof Kevlar-49 fibers and glass-E fiber The reinforcementwoven are industrially manufactured. Both laminates use a polyester resin as a matrixand are made up of four layers each. All laminates were industrially prepared by the hand lay-up method of manufacturing. To do this, test specimens were manufactured of the respective laminates and submitted to environmental aging accelerated through the aging chamber. They were exposed to alternating cycles of UV radiation and moisture (heated steam) for a standard defined period. At the end of the exposure period the specimens were subjected to mechanical tests of uniaxial tensile and bending in three points and to the characterizationsof the fracture and surface deterioration. In addition, they were submitted to a structural degradation assessment by the measurement of mass variation technique (MMVT) and the measurement of thickness variation technique (MTVT), this last technique being developed in this thesis. At the end of the analysis it was observed that the form of hybridization of the reinforcement woven and the aging process directly influence with losses or gain in mechanical properties, with losses in the structural degradation and in the formation and propagation of damage mechanism of the developedcomposite laminates

The utilization of synthetic fibers for plastic reinforcement is more and more frequent and this growing interest requires that their mechanic behavior under the most variable conditions of structural applications be known. The use of such materials in the open and exposed to the elements is one of them. In this case, it becomes extremely necessary to study their mechanical properties (strength, stiffness) and the mechanism of fracture by which the environment aging them out. In order to do that, the material must be submitted to hot steam and ultraviolet radiation exposure cycles, according to periods of time determined by the norms. This study proposal deals with the investigation of accelerated environmental aging in two laminated polymeric composites reinforced by hybrid woven made up of synthetic fibers. The configurations of the laminated composites are defined as: one laminate reinforced with hybrid woven of glass fibers/E and Kevlar fibers/49 (LHVK) and the other laminate is reinforced with hybrid tissue of glass fibers/E and of carbon fibers AS4 (LHVC). The woven are plane and bidirectional. Both laminates are impregnated with a thermofix resin called Derakane 470-300 Epoxy Vinyl-Ester and they form a total of four layers. The laminates were industrially manufactured and were made through the process of hand-lay-up. Comparative analyses were carried out between their mechanical properties by submitting specimen to uniaxial loading tractions and three-point flexion. The specimen were tested both from their original state, that is, without being environmentally aging out, and after environmental aging. This last state was reached by using the environmental aging chamber

Os polímeros biodegradáveis, como o poliácido láctico (PLA) apesar de consolidado nos campos farmacêuticos, médico e biomédico como biomateriais úteis para aplicações variadas, porém, depende da necessidade de funcionalizar a sua superfície estudando suas propriedades tais como hidrofilidade e hidrofobicidade favorecendo a interação do polímero com os materiais de aplicação farmacêutica, médica e biomédica. Este trabalho tem como objetivo produzir um material com características diferentes em cada um de seus lados, sendo um lado hidrofílico e o outro hidrofóbico. O substrato têxtil utilizado neste estudo foi um tecido de malha de composição 100% PLA que é biodegradável e biocompatível, o que possibilita sua aplicação na área biomédica. Para modificação superficial foi utilizado o tratamento a plasma de baixa pressão. A técnica de modificação de superfície por plasma foi escolhida por ser uma tecnologia limpa, anticorrosiva e não tóxica ao contrario de muitos processos químicos convencionais utilizados na indústria têxtil, além disso, não afeta as propriedades de massa do substrato. Neste estudo, um lado da superfície do substrato foi tratado com plasma oxigênio, argônio e nitrogênio, para o trabalho de melhoria da hidrofilidade da superfície e metano para a hidrofobicidade da amostra. A espectroscopia de emissão ótica (OEE) foi utilizada para fazer o diagnóstico das espécies do plasma durante o tratamento. Após o tratamento a plasma as amostras foram caracterizadas por medidas de ângulo de contato, microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV), Espectroscopia de fotoelétrons de raios-X (XPS), Infravermelho com Transformada de Fourier (FTIR) de reflexão total atenuada (ATR), medidas da área de espalhamento do líquido e arraste vertical. Onde foi caracterizado o aumento e diminuição da molhabilidade das amostras tratadas por plasma bem como as variáveis que contribuíram para tal efeito. O tratamento das amostras de PLA com O2 + CH4 apresenta comportamento hidrofílico no lado tratado com O2, apresentando aumento de rugosidade e grupos funcionais e no lado tratado com CH4, apresentando a formação de um filme polimérico formado sobre a superfície da amostra. O tratamento com N2 + CH4 apresenta comportamento hidrofóbico, porém com variações no fluxo do CH4 tem-se um controle da molhabilidade na superfície das amostras, podendo ir de hidrofóbico a hidrofílico, neste tratamento as amostras apresentaram pequenas diferenças de molhabilidade entre os lados tratados com plasma de N2 e com plasma de CH4

O propósito do presente trabalho foi o estudo da Leishmaniose Visceral Canina - LVC por meio de métodos parasitológicos e imunoistoquímicos para a detecção de formas amastigotas de Leishmania (L.) chagasi em baço, além de descrever a histopatologia das lesões esplênicas em 34 cães, com diferentes manifestações clínicas da LVC, eutanasiados pelo Centro de Controle de Zoonoses de Ilha Solteira, SP. Esses animais foram examinados clinicamente antes da eutánásia e de acordo com os sinais clínicos da LVC, foram classificados em três grupos: assintomáticos (8 cães), oligossintomáticos (17 cães) e sintomáticos (9 cães). Após a realização desses exames, dos 34 cães, 22 (64,7%) estavam positivos e 12 (35,3%) negativos. Desses cães positivos, 1/22 (4,5%) era assintomático, 12/22 (54,5%) eram oligossintomáticos e 9/22 (40,1%) sintomáticos. Pela histopatologia, os cães, especialmente os sintomáticos apresentavam o baço com inflamação crônica e espessamento na região capsular e trabecular, além de extensa alteração morfológica na polpa vermelha e branca pela presença de grande quantidade de macrófagos repletos de amastigotas, pela reação granulomatosa inflamatória e pelas áreas hemorrágicas. Os exames histopatológicos e a detecção microscópica direta da L. (L.) chagasi revelaram que o baço é um órgão útil para auxiliar no diagnóstico da LVC. A coloração imunoistoquímica foi a que detectou o maior número de tecidos esplênicos positivos com amastigotas, além de elucidar os casos suspeitos pelos exames parasitológicos, principalmente, nos animais assintomáticos ou oligossintomáticos.

The development of more selective and sensitive analytical methods is of great importance in different areas of knowledge, covering, for example, food, biotechnological, environmental and pharmaceutical sectors. The study aimed to employ the technique electroanalytical differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) as an innovative and promising alternative for identification and quantification of organic compounds. The organic compounds were investigated in this study oxalic acid (OA) and folic acid (FA). The electrochemical oxidation of oxalic acid has been extensively studied as a model reaction in the boundary between the organic and inorganic electrochemistry. Since the AF, an essential vitamin for cell multiplication in all tissues, which is essential for DNA synthesis. The AF has been investigated using analytical techniques, liquid chromatography and molecular absorption spectrophotometry. The results obtained during the experimental procedure indicated that the process of electrochemical oxidation of oxalic acid is strongly dependent on the nature of the anode material and the oxidation mechanism, which affects their detection. Efficient removal was observed in Ti/PbO2 anodes, graphite, BDD and Pt 90, 85, 80 and 78% respectively. It was also shown that the DPV employing glassy carbon electrode offers a fast, simple, reliable and economical way to determine the AO during the process of electrochemical oxidation. Furthermore, electroanalytical methods are more expensive than commonly used chromatographic analysis and other instrumental methods involving toxic reagents and higher cost. Compared with the classical method of titration and DPV could be a good fit, confidence intervals and detection limits confirming the applicability of electroanalytical technique for monitoring the degradation of oxalic acid. For the study of AF was investigated the electrocatalytic activity of the carbon paste electrode for identification and quantification in pharmaceutical formulations by applying the DPV. The results obtained during the experimental procedure showed an irreversible oxidation peak at 9.1 V characteristic of FA. The carbon paste sensor showed low detection limit of 5.683×10−8 mol L-1 reducing matrix effects. The spectrophotometric analysis showed lower concentrations of HF compared with those obtained by HPLC and DPV. The levels of AF were obtained according to the methodology proposed by the Brazilian Pharmacopoeia. The electroanalytical method (DPV) proposed is cheaper than GC analysis commonly used by the pharmaceutical industry. The results demonstrated the potential of these electroanalytical techniques for future applications in environmental, chemical and biological sensors

Utilizaram-se 32 bubalinos machos não-castrados, da raça Mediterrâneo, divididos aleatoriamente em cinco categorias. Os animais de uma categoria foram abatidos imediatamente, enquanto os demais foram alimentados, à vontade, com ração contendo 70% de concentrado (na matéria seca) e abatidos ao atingirem 450, 480, 510 ou 540 kg de peso corporal. Adotou-se a equação de regressão do logaritmo da quantidade corporal de carcaça e de seus tecidos (muscular, adiposo e ósseo) em função do logaritmo do peso de corpo vazio. A carcaça apresentou valor de alometria, o que indica desenvolvimento proporcionalmente igual ao do peso corporal vazio. Derivando as equações, obtiveram-se as equações de predição da participação dos componentes corporais no ganho de 1 kg de peso de corpo vazio. Na carcaça, o tecido adiposo teve maior impulso de crescimento em idade mais tardia, enquanto os tecidos ósseo e muscular tiveram maior impulso para crescimento em idade mais precoce.
