Black fungi are able to adapt to extreme environmental conditions, such as: high temperatures, the presence of toxic chemical substances and lack of nutrients. Besides, they are also potential pathogens to humans. The natural environment of many black fungi is still unknown and some studies are being conducted to evaluate the biodiversity of this group and their different habitats. This study aimed to isolate black fungi in domestic environments and facilities, such as toothbrushes, fridge sealing rubbers, bathroom strainers and divisions, windows, wall tiles and bath sponge. For the collection, material surfaces were scratched with a scalpel and the resulting fragments were sewed in Mycosel agar (DifcoTM), supplemented with actidione to inhibit the growth of highly-sporulating fungi. Plates were incubated at 25ºC for three weeks. The 46 isolated fungi were maintained on MA2% slants at 8ºC and cryopreserved at -80ºC. Fungal identification was performed through the analysis of macro and microscopic features and ITS rDNA sequencing. The following black fungi taxa were found: Ascomycota sp., Cladosporium spp., Dothideomycete sp., Exophiala alcalophila, Ochroconis mirabilis and Rhinocladiella atrovirens. Non-melanized fungi were also found, such as Geosmithia sp., Penicillium sp. and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa. The temperature tests showed that isolated black fungi were not able to grow at 37°C, however, this temperature proved to be fungistatic to 43% of them. According to literature, all black fungi isolated in this study are opportunistic pathogens and additional studies are necessary to evaluate the risk that these micro-organisms offer to health, once they were isolated from domestic environments

Mathematical Morphology presents a systematic approach to extract geometric features of binary images, using morphological operators that transform the original image into another by means of a third image called structuring element and came out in 1960 by researchers Jean Serra and George Matheron. Fuzzy mathematical morphology extends the operators towards grayscale and color images and was initially proposed by Goetherian using fuzzy logic. Using this approach it is possible to make a study of fuzzy connectives, which allows some scope for analysis for the construction of morphological operators and their applicability in image processing. In this paper, we propose the development of morphological operators fuzzy using the R-implications for aid and improve image processing, and then to build a system with these operators to count the spores mycorrhizal fungi and red blood cells. It was used as the hypothetical-deductive methodologies for the part formal and incremental-iterative for the experimental part. These operators were applied in digital and microscopic images. The conjunctions and implications of fuzzy morphology mathematical reasoning will be used in order to choose the best adjunction to be applied depending on the problem being approached, i.e., we will use automorphisms on the implications and observe their influence on segmenting images and then on their processing. In order to validate the developed system, it was applied to counting problems in microscopic images, extending to pathological images. It was noted that for the computation of spores the best operator was the erosion of Gödel. It developed three groups of morphological operators fuzzy, Lukasiewicz, And Godel Goguen that can have a variety applications

The sabiá (Mimosa caesalpiniaefolia Benth.) is an endemic species of the Caatinga biome, considered tolerant to salt and water stress. The process of salinization of soil and groundwater and surface water is one of the most important problems of environmental degradation, with its harmful effects being more pronounced in the areas of arid and semiarid regions, and rapidly growing in many parts of the globe, causing problems of the major crop yield. Organic conditioners as barnyard manure, and rice hulls can contribute to reducing the PST, possibly due to the release of CO2 and the production of organic acids during the decomposition of organic matter, and act as sources of calcium and magnesium and inhibit the availability sodium. The intimate association of mycorrhizae and beneficial to plants results in increased uptake of water and nutrients by plants, especially phosphorus, due to their low mobility in soil. The objective of this study was to evaluate the initial growth of thrush seedlings under inoculation with mycorrhizal fungi and fertilized with manure corral and irrigated with water of different salinity levels. The experiment was conducted in greenhouse conditions of vegetation on the premises of the Agricultural School of Jundiaí - UFRN, Campus Macaíba. The adopted statistical design was randomized composed of twelve treatments - three substrates (sterile soil, manure and FMA), four salinity levels (0.2, 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5 dS m-1 ) and five repetitions, totaling sixty experimental units. The results indicate that inoculation with mycorrhizal fungi own contributions to the growth of plants, especially in roots and shoots, which suggests that its application is beneficial in establishing thrush plants in natural conditions, with poor soil in P. Levels salinity caused no effects with statistical significance in plant development, indicating Sabia resistance to it.

Os moluscos pateliformes de água doce da região Neotropical são comumente atribuídos a família Ancylidae sensu latum, abrangendo sete gêneros com pelo menos 13 espécies válidas e sete com identificação duvidosa. Os ancilídeos possuem pequenas dimensões, alcançam no máximo 15 mm de comprimento. Sua concha é frágil, composta por duas regiões, a protoconcha e a teleoconcha, as quais apresentam caracteres relevantes para a sistemática. Na parte mole as impressões musculares, a pigmentação do manto, o sistema reprodutor e a rádula são importantes para o estudo da família. Apesar de existirem vários registros de ocorrência para ancílideos no Estado do Rio de Janeiro (ERJ), existem poucos dados morfológicos. O principal objetivo deste estudo foi fornecer e ampliar as informações sobre a morfologia e distribuição geográfica das espécies de Ancylidae encontradas no ERJ. Os materiais utilizados foram procedentes de coletas próprias, material depositado em Coleções Científicas e dados de revisão bibliográfica. O estudo da morfologia comparada das conchas foi realizado com o auxílio de imagens de microscópio óptico e de varredura. Para a comparação das partes moles, os espécimes foram corados e dissecados sob lupa. Através da conquiliometria analisamos as diferenças inter e intrapopulacionais. Com este trabalho, a riqueza conhecida para Ancylidae no ERJ, aumentou de cinco para sete espécies: Burnupia sp., Ferrissia sp., Gundlachia radiata (Guilding, 1828),G. ticaga (Marcus & Marcus, 1962), Gundlachia sp., Hebetancylus moricandi (d`Orbigny, 1837) e Uncancylus concentricus (d`Orbigny, 1837). Gundlachia radiata e U. concentricus constituem novos registros para o ERJ, e G. radiata para a Região Sudeste. As três espécies com o maior número de registros de ocorrência no ERJ foram: G. ticaga (66%), Ferrissia sp. (37%) e Gundlachia sp. (18%). A ampla distribuição de G. ticaga pode ser devido à capacidade de suportar ambientes impactados. Em relação à morfologia, Burnupia sp. difere de Burnupia ingae Lanzer, 1991, única espécie deste gênero descrita para o Brasil, por apresentar diferenças na microescultura da concha e também na forma das impressões musculares. Ferrissia sp. difere de F. gentilis Lanzer, 1991, devido a diferenças na microescultura apical e número de cúspides no dente central da rádula. Gundlachia sp. é diferente de G. ticaga e G. radiata, por apresentar a abertura da concha mais arredondada, ápice mais recurvado, ultrapassando a borda da concha, pontuações irregulares em toda a protoconcha e forma dos músculos adutores anterior direito e posterior mais elíptica. A morfologia interna também mostra diferenças entre Gundlachia sp. e G. ticaga, como o apêndice terminal do útero e o número de folículos do ovoteste. Através das análises conquiliométricas, constatamos para os gêneros Burnupia, Ferrrissia e Gundlachia, que os índices morfométricos se mostraram melhores que as medidas lineares para a discriminação das espécies, provavelmente porque esses índices diminuem o efeito da amplitude de tamanho das conchas, que são fortemente influenciadas pelas variações ecofenotípicas. Contudo, os caracteres diagnósticos das conchas e das partes moles (impressões musculares) são indispensáveis para a identificação dos gêneros e espécies de Ancylidae. Palavras-chave: Mollusca.

Neste trabalho foram analisadas a morfologia e a biodegradação de compósitos de poli(ε-caprolactona) com fibras provenientes da casca de coco verde. Parte destas fibras foi submetida à modificação química por meio da reação de acetilação. A avaliação da morfologia foi realizada nas amostras de poli(ε-caprolactona) puro e seus compósitos antes e após o teste de biodegradação. O teste de biodegradação foi feito pelo enterro das amostras em solo simulado por períodos distintos, variando de vinte a trinta semanas, seguindo a Norma ASTM G 160 03. Após cada período de teste, as amostras foram retiradas do solo e analisadas por microscopia ótica (MO), microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV), microscopia de força atômica (AFM), calorimetria diferencial de varredura (DSC), difratômetro de raios X (DRX) e ressonância magnética nuclear (RMN) de baixo campo no estado sólido. Pelas análises, foram verificados perda de massa, alteração morfológica da superfície e variação no percentual de cristalinidade das amostras. O PCL e os compósitos sofreram biodegradabilidade e a presença das fibras retarda ligeiramente esse processo
