Amostras de terra provenientes de uma Terra Roxa Estruturada e um Latossol Vermelho Escuro textura média foram analisados quimicamente para se verificar a influência de embalagem (caixa de papelão saco de polietileno), tempo de armazenamento (1-32 dias) e processo de secagem (ao ar ou estufa a 60°C). A secagem foi o fator que mais influenciou a análise determinando variações nos resultados analíticos principalmente para pH e fósforo. O armazenamento apresentou influência apenas para fósforo trocável enquanto que a embalagem não influiu nos resultados. As variações dos resultados analíticos para pH, em função da secagem, e fósforo, em função da secagem e tempo de armazenamento, foram de ordem a alterar a interpretação da fertilidade quanto aos limites de classes.

The quantitative chemical characterization of the inorganic fraction of scale products is very relevant in studying, monitoring and controlling corrosive processes of oil pipelines. The X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) is a very versatile analytical technique, which can be used in quantitative analysis in solid samples at low concentrations of the chemical element, in the order of few ppm. A methodology that involves sample preparation diluted in the proportion of 1:7 (one portion of the sample for seven of wax), pressed as pellets was used in the XRF calibration for chemical analysis of scale products from oil pipelines. The calibration involved the preparation of reference samples from mixtures of P.A. reagents, aiming to optimize the time consumed in the steps of sample preparation and analysis of Al, Ba, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, P, S, Si, Sr and Ti, using the same pressed pellet for trace and major elements analysis

Embora existam indicações de que a pá de corte proporcione melhor qualidade de amostragem de terra para fins de análise de fertilidade, seu manuseio demanda muito tempo. No presente trabalho foram comparados os resultados da análise química de terra proveniente de 15 áreas distintas, cujas amostras foram obtidas com cinco tipos de trado e com pá de corte. Também foram comparados o tempo demandado para a realização do trabalho e o volume de terra coletado com as diferentes ferramentas, em dois solos de texturas distintas. O tempo médio de amostragem foi estimado, avaliando-se o tempo gasto por seis pessoas para tomar dez amostras. Para o estudo de qualidade de resultados foram amostradas 15 áreas, com solos, manejos e níveis de fertilidade distintos, de modo a se obter grande variação entre os valores das características avaliadas. As amostragens constaram da estratificação por profundidades e amostras de 0 a 20 cm de profundidade no teste de tempo. A amostragem com a pá de corte demora de 1,3 a 2,3 vezes mais do que com os trados. Para os valores de pH, matéria orgânica, acidez do solo, Al trocável e P disponível, os resultados foram equivalentes para todas as ferramentas empregadas. Entretanto, para as bases do solo (Ca, Mg e K), as ferramentas empregadas resultaram, na maioria das vezes, em resultados diferentes dos obtidos pela pá de corte.

A Talauma ovata, (Magnoliaceae), planta encontrada na região Sul do Brasil, e conhecida vulgarmente pelo nome de "baguaçu", é recomendada na medicina popular, na forma de chá das folhas, principalmente para o tratamento do diabetes. O presente estudo foi realizado visando analisar, sob os aspectos fitoquímido e farmacológico, a validade do uso medicinal desta planta, como parte de um "screening" mais abrangente. Quimicamente, o extrato de T. ovata é composto de fitoesteróides, saponinas, alcalóides aporfínicos e taninos. No estudo farmacológico não foi constatado a atividade hipoglicemiante do extrato bruto de T. ovato tanto em animais normoglicêmicos, quanto hiperglicêmicos. Além disso, a alta toxicidade observada para esta planta é um inconveniente para seu emprego medicinal peta população.

Foram efetuados estudos químicos e farmacológicos dos extratos brutos hidroalcóolicos obtidos das folhas ou das raízes de E. argentinum ou de frações semi-purificadas desta planta. Os testes químicos revelaram a existência de alcalóides, fitoesteróides, leucoantocianidinas, glicosídeos flavonóides, cumarinas e taninos. A análise farmacológica in vivo demonstrou que o extrato das folhas é menos tóxico que o da raiz. Tanto o extrato bruto como as frações semi-purificadas obtidas das folhas reduziram a locomoção e pressão arterial de rato e potenciaram o sono barbiturico em camundongos. O extrato bruto, principalmente o da raiz, reduziu o edema induzido por carragenina na pata de rato. Testes in vitro demonstraram que o extrato bruto ou as frações semi-purificadas das folhas produziram uma ação semelhante à cocaína avaliada no canal deferente de rato. Além disso, o extrato bruto produziu relaxamento inespecífico no útero de rata e contração do íleo de cobaia. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que esta planta possui constituintes ativos dotados de distintas propriedades farmacológicas, destacando-se o efeito anti-inflamatório, além de uma ação tipo cocaína, merecendo, portanto, estudos químicos e farmacológicos complementares.

A flow system based on multicommutation and binary sampling process was developed to implement the sample zone trapping technique in order to increase the spectrophotometric analytical range and to improve sensitivity. The flow network was designed with active devices in order to provide facilities to determine sequentialy analyte with a wide concentration range, employing a single pumping channel to propel sample and reagents solutions. The procedure was employed to determine ortophosphate ions in water samples of river and waste. Profitable features such as an analytical throughput of 60 samples determination per hour, relative standard deviation (r.s.d.) of 2% (n = 6) for a typical sample with concentration of 2.78 mg/L were achieved. By applying the paired t-test no significant difference at 95% confidence level was observed between the results obtained with the proposed system and those of the usual flow injection system.

In this work a micro-heater device to be used as an integral part of the flow analysis manifold is described. The usefulness of the device was demonstrated using it in the development of a multicommutated flow analysis procedure for the spectrophotometric determination of manganese in plant digest. The method was based on the manganese oxidation by periodate in phosphoric acid medium to form the permanganate anion. The reaction development is dependent on the temperature and it was observed that at 25 °C a time interval of ca. 15 min was necessary for the reaction to attain equilibrium. Setting the temperature to 70 ºC, this time interval could be decreased to ca. 30 s. This condition was easily attained employing the proposed micro-heater device coupled to the manifold. The procedure was applied to manganese determination in soybean digests and results compared with those obtained by inductively coupled argon plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). No significant difference at 90% confidence level was observed. A linear response for sample concentrations ranging from 5.0 to 30.00 mg L-1 Mn2+; a relative standard deviation of 1.3% (n = 6) for a typical sample containing 6.3 mg L-1 Mn2+; a sampling rate of 22 determinations per hour; a low reagent consumption, of 12.0 mg NaIO4 per determination; and a detection limit of 1.2 mg L-1 were achieved.

Quantitative GC-FID was evaluated for analysis of methylated copaiba oils, using trans-(-)-caryophyllene or methyl copalate as external standards. Analytical curves showed good linearity and reproducibility in terms of correlation coefficients (0.9992 and 0.996, respectively) and relative standard deviation (< 3%). Quantification of sesquiterpenes and diterpenic acids were performed with each standard, separately. When compared with the integrator response normalization, the standardization was statistically similar for the case of methyl copalate, but the response of trans-(-)-caryophyllene was statistically (P < 0.05) different. This method showed to be suitable for classification and quality control of commercial samples of the oils.

Samples of copper compounds covering all of the XXth century and the end of the XIXth century were submitted to classical and instrumental quantitative analysis. The amount of impurities greatly decreased with time, reaching a constant level since the 1960's. The gravimetric method was suitable for the determination of copper although other procedures also gave good or reasonable results. However, for metal contaminants, atomic absorption spectrometry was the best choice because of its lower detection limits, being able to determine several elements in the oldest samples. Ion chromatography detected several anions in copper salts manufactured before the 1950's. An increasing quality of raw materials and a better sensitivity of analytical methods led to quality improvement of copper compounds with time.

The marine diatom Coscinodiscus wailesii has attracted ecological interest because their blooms affect fishing areas. The aim of this work was the isolation, extraction and partial chemical characterization of soluble exopolysaccharide and bound exopolysaccharide from C. wailesii. Cultures were grown in Guillards f/2 medium under controlled conditions of temperature, aeration, photoperiod and light intensity. Percentage of carbohydrate, uronic acids, sulfates groups and cellular lipids was determined. Ion exchange chromatography of exopolysaccharides produced three fractions whose partial chemical structures were disclosed using 13C NMR and methylation techniques.

Making use of several analytical techniques, four erudite and four popular Portuguese baroque wooden sculptures were studied. The materials and techniques employed were identified and the relationship between their artistic quality and the materials used was investigated. In general, the pigments were common at the time, but one pigment discovered in the beginning of the 18th century and two rare arsenic pigments were also identified. In popular sculptures cost-saving was detected, particularly concerning the gold leaf. Regarding some technical procedures identified, recommendations found in historical documents did not seem to have been entirely followed, neither in erudite nor in popular sculptures.
