This study highlights the synthesis of innovative polyurethane materials derived from Moringa oleifera oils extracted from two distinct sources. The oils were converted into their respective polyols through the in situ generated performic acid method. Diverse material characteristics were observed due to different agroclimatic and cultivation conditions for the sources. Extraction yields were 45.21% (source 1) and 40.32% (source 2), with acid values of 28.70 and 26.00 mg KOH per g of oil, respectively. Oleic acid constituted 79.87 and 67.11% of the oils composition, respectively. Nuclear magnetic resonance and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed the hydroxylation of the oils. FTIR also identified the isocyanate structures in the synthesized polyurethane materials. Gel permeation chromatography analysis revealed a higher oligomer content in the polyol synthesized from the oil extracted from source 2. Thermogravimetric analysis demonstrated enhanced thermal stability post-oil conversion, highlighting decomposition stages for rigid and flexible segments. Differential scanning calorimetry indicated higher unsaturation in the oil extracted from source 1, resulting in an elevated crystallization temperature. Tensile testing showed increased elasticity as the [NCO]/[OH] ratio decreased in the material, emphasizing the influence of polyol and crosslinking agent concentrations on mechanical resistance of polyurethane materials. sources method 4521 45 21 45.21 1 4032 40 32 40.32 2, 2 , 2) 2870 28 70 28.7 2600 26 00 26.0 respectively 7987 79 87 79.8 6711 67 11 67.11 composition (FTIR postoil post conversion segments temperature NCO/OH NCOOH NCO / OH [NCO]/[OH 452 4 45.2 403 3 40.3 287 7 28. 260 0 26. 798 8 79. 671 6 67.1 45. 40. 67.

RESUMO Evitar a ocorrência de eventos hidrológicos extremos ultrapassa as habilidades atuais da humanidade. Todavia, a utilização de ferramentas adequadas para estimar a probabilidade associada a diferentes valores de variáveis hidrológicas, a exemplo das chuvas intensas, pode auxiliar na atenuação dos danos sociais e ambientais. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar a hipótese de que os registros de chuvas máximas, em diferentes intervalores de duração, nas três principais estações pluviométricas do estado do Acre, ajustam-se à distribuição log-normal de dois parâmetros (LN2) e, com isso, avaliar os eventos de chuvas intensas, com base na associação entre a duração da chuva e o período de retorno. As equações foram conformadas ao modelo clássico do modelo LN2 pelo método da máxima verossimilhança, uma vez atendido o pressuposto basal da estacionariedade pelo teste de Mann-Kendall. A aderência ao modelo foi verificada por meio teste de Anderson-Darling. As distribuições ajustadas permitiram estimar a intensidade de chuva, em diferentes intervalores de duração e períodos de retorno, para as cidades de Cruzeiro do Sul, Tarauacá e Rio Branco, e são elementos relevantes ao planejamento de ações voltadas ao fortalecimento dos componentes da segurança hídrica no estado do Acre. humanidade Todavia hidrológicas intensas ambientais máximas Acre ajustamse ajustam se lognormal log normal LN (LN2 isso retorno verossimilhança MannKendall.

ABSTRACT Preventing the occurrence of extreme hydrological events exceeds the current abilities of humanity. However, using adequate tools to estimate the probability associated with different values of hydrological variables, such as heavy rainfall, can help mitigate social and environmental damage. This study aimed to verify the hypothesis that the records of maximum rainfall, at different intervals of duration, in the three main rainfall stations in the state of Acre fit the log-normal distribution of two parameters (LN2) and, therefore, to evaluate the events of heavy rainfalls, based on the association between the duration of the rain and the return period. The equations conformed to the classic model of the LN2 model using the method of maximum likelihood once the baseline assumption of stationarity was met using the Mann-Kendall test. Adherence to the model was verified using the Anderson-Darling test. The adjusted distributions allowed for estimating the rainfall intensity at different durations and return periods for the cities of Cruzeiro do Sul, Tarauacá, and Rio Branco and are relevant elements for planning actions aimed at strengthening the components of water safety in the state of Acre. humanity However variables damage lognormal log normal LN (LN2 therefore rainfalls period MannKendall Mann Kendall test AndersonDarling Anderson Darling Sul Tarauacá (LN

RESUMO O peróxido de hidrogênio (H2O2) pode ser indicado como uma estratégia para mitigar o estresse salino em plantas, por isso o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os efeitos das concentrações e métodos de aplicação de H2O2 como mitigador do estresse salino sobre o crescimento, fisiologia e qualidade de mudas de maracujá cv. BRS Gigante Amarelo. O experimento foi conduzido em ambiente protegido (telado) pertencente a UFERSA, em Caraúbas - RN, Brasil, em delineamento em blocos casualizados e analisados em esquema fatorial 2 × 4 × 3, com quatro repetições e uma planta por parcela. Os tratamentos consistiram em: condutividade elétrica da água de irrigação - CEa (0,5 e 3,2 dS m-1); concentrações de H2O2 (0, 12, 24 e 36 μM); e métodos de aplicação de H2O2 (M1 = embebição das sementes, M2 = pulverização foliar e M3 = embebição das sementes + pulverização foliar). O aumento dos níveis de salinidade da água de irrigação afeta negativamente a qualidade das mudas. O peróxido de hidrogênio na concentração de 24 µM mitiga o estresse salino em mudas de maracujazeiro cv. BRS Gigante Amarelo. A aplicação de H2O2 em sementes associada à pulverização foliar mitiga os efeitos do estresse salino sobre a taxa de crescimento absoluto da área foliar de mudas de maracujá irrigadas com CEa de 3,2 dS m-1.

ABSTRACT Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can be indicated as a strategy to mitigate salt stress in plants, so the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different concentrations and methods of application of H2O2 as a mitigator of salt stress on the growth, physiology, and quality of seedlings of yellow passion fruit. The experiment was carried out in a protected environment (screened) belonging to UFERSA, in Caraúbas - RN, Brazil, in a randomized block design and analyzed in a 2 × 4 × 3 factorial scheme, with four replications and one plant per plot. The treatments consisted of levels of electrical conductivity of irrigation water - ECw (0.5 and 3.2 dS m-1), H2O2 concentrations (0, 12, 24, and 36 μM), and H2O2 application methods (M1 = seed soaking, M2 = foliar spraying, and M3 = seed soaking + foliar spraying). Increased levels of salinity in irrigation water negatively affect seedling quality. Hydrogen peroxide at an average concentration of 24 µM mitigates salt stress in passion fruit seedlings cv. BRS Gigante Amarelo. H2O2 application to seeds associated with foliar spraying mitigates the effects of salt stress on the absolute growth rate of the leaf area of passion fruit seedlings irrigated with an ECw of 3.2 dS m-1.

Resumo Este estudo objetivou avaliar os efeitos da temperatura e motilidade embrionária sobre o desenvolvimento esquelético de jacaré-do-pantanal (Caiman yacare). Os ovos foram incubados com 90% de umidade e empregou-se a temperatura de 29°C por 45 dias. Após, para a incubação do Grupo I a temperatura continuou em 29°C, mas associou-se à injeção de 4-aminopiridina (29°C-4AP, n = 15) aplicada nos dias 46, 47, 48 e 49, do Grupo II permaneceu em 29°C (n = 14) e do Grupo III elevou-se para 33°C (n = 14). A movimentação foi mensurada através do monitor digital Egg Buddy® nos dias 30, 35, 42, 49, 56 e 60 dias. Aos 60 dias, os embriões foram eutanasiados e coletadas amostras embrionárias. Na análise estatística não foram observadas diferenças entre os grupos para o fator temperatura sobre a motilidade embrionária no desenvolvimento esquelético. Em contraste, a motilidade evidenciou diferença estatística no dia 49 para o Grupo I (P < 0,001) e apresentou maiores proporções de nariz e mão. Esses dados demonstraram pela primeira vez que o aumento na motilidade, induzidos farmacologicamente resultam em divergências fenotípicas na proporção de segmentos anatômicos durante a ontogenia pré-natal, podendo alterar efetivamente a adaptação dos animais em ambientes específicos.
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate whether skeletal development of the Pantanal Caiman (Caiman yacare) is similarly influenced by temperature variation and controlled increases in embryo motility. All eggs were incubated at 90% humidity and 29 °C for the first 45 days. Thereafter, the incubation temperature was either maintained at 29 °C and embryos were treated with 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) on days 46, 47, 48, and 49 (Group I, 29 °C 4-AP, n = 15); maintained at 29 °C (n = 14; Group II); or at 33 °C (n = 14, Group III). Embryonic movement was measured using an Egg Buddy® digital monitor on days 30, 35, 42, 49, 56, and 60, at which point embryos were euthanized and samples were collected for analysis. No differences were observed between groups with varying incubation temperatures. In contrast, embryonic motility was greater in embryos treated with 4-AP (P < 0.001) on day 49, and this was associated with higher proportions of snout-vent and hand lengths. This study demonstrates for the first time that pharmacologically induced increases in embryo motility result in phenotypic changes to the proportion of elements during prenatal ontogeny, thereby effectively altering the adaptation of the species to specific environments.

Resumo Toxoplasma gondii e Neospora caninum são dois protozoários intimamente relacionados que infectam uma ampla gama de animais, incluindo-se aves. Entretanto, a ocorrência de N. caninum e T. gondii em aves marinhas é desconhecida. Portanto, este estudo objetivou determinar a presença de DNA de T. gondii e N. caninum em amostras de tecidos, coletadas de 47 aves marinhas. Amostras de tecidos dos músculos peitorais, coração e cérebro foram coletadas de 47 aves marinhas mortas ao longo da costa do estado de Santa Catarina, SC, Brasil. O DNA foi extraído dos tecidos e testado, usando-se a reação em cadeia da polimerase nested (nPCR), tendo em vista o espaçador interno transcrito 1 (ITS1). O DNA de T. gondii foi detectado em tecidos de sete aves marinhas (7/47, 14,8%), como gaivota (Larus dominicanus) (5/21) e bobo-pequeno (Puffinus puffinus) (2/8). O DNA de N. caninum foi detectado em tecidos de nove aves marinhas (9/47, 19,1%); gaivota (L. dominicanus) (4/21), bobo-pequeno (P. puffinus) (2/8), corvo-marinho (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) 1/4), atobá-pardo (Sula leucogaster) (1/5), e pardela-preta (Procellaria aequinoctialis) (1/1).

Abstract Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora caninum are two closely related protozoans that infect a wide range of animals, including birds. However, the occurrence of N. caninum and T. gondii in seabirds is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the presence of T. gondii and N. caninum DNA in tissue samples of seabirds. Tissue samples of the pectoral muscles, heart, and brain were collected from 47 birds along the coastline of Santa Catarina State, SC, Brazil. The DNA was extracted from the tissues and screened using nested-PCR (nPCR) targeting internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1). T. gondii DNA was detected in tissues from seven seabirds (7/47, 14.8%), kelp gull (Larus dominicanus) (5/21), and Manx shearwater (Puffinus puffinus) (2/8). N. caninum DNA was detected in tissues of nine seabirds (9/47, 19.1%), the kelp gull (L. dominicanus) (4/21), Manx shearwater (P. puffinus) (2/8), neotropic cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) (1/4), brown booby (Sula leucogaster) (1/5), and white-chinned petrel (Procellaria aequinoctialis) (1/1); however, no co-infection was observed. In conclusion, this study showed the circulation of N. caninum and T. gondii in seabirds along the coastline of Santa Catarina State.

RESUMO Os fungos do gênero Pyricularia possuem ampla gama de plantas hospedeiras e são capazes de infectar mais de 50 espécies de gramíneas, causando a doença brusone, com danos às espigas. Espécies da forrageira braquiária (Urochloa spp.) podem ser hospedeiras deste gênero de fungo e podem ser importante fonte de inóculo do patógeno para outras culturas agrícolas afetadas pela brusone, especialmente o trigo. O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar a reação de nove cultivares de Urochloa aos patógenos Pyricularia oryzae linhagem Triticum (PoT1), P. pennisetigena, P. urashimae e P. grisea. Foi avaliado também a virulência de sete raças de PoTl á cultivares de braquiária. Houve variação na patogenicidade e virulência das espécies de Pyricularia e raças de PoTl em diferentes cultivares de braquiária. As cultivares Ipyporã, BRS Tupi e Xaraés foram as mais resistentes às diferentes espécies de patógenos da brusone, e raças de PoTl.

ABSTRACT Fungi of the genus Pyricularia have a wide range of host plants and are capable of infecting more than 50 species of grasses, causing the blast disease, with damage to the ears. Species of the forage signal grass (Urochloa spp.) can be hosts of this genus of fungus and can be an important source of inoculum of the pathogen for other agricultural crops affected by blast, especially wheat. The objective of this study was to determine the reaction of nine cultivars of Urochloa to the pathogens Pyricularia oryzae Triticum lineage (PoTl), P. pennisetigena, P. urashimae, and P. grisea. The virulence of seven races of PoTl to signal grass cultivars was also evaluated. There was variation in the pathogenicity and virulence of Pyricularia species and PoTl races in different signal grass cultivars. The cultivars Ipyporã, BRS Tupi, and Xaraés were the most resistant to the different blast pathogen species and PoTl races. Therefore, it is recommended to cultivate these varieties in areas adjacent to wheat or in crop-livestock integration. 5 grasses disease ears spp. spp PoTl, , (PoTl) P pennisetigena urashimae grisea evaluated Ipyporã Tupi Therefore croplivestock crop livestock integration (PoTl

ABSTRACT Pharmacological treatment of obesity is passing through many changes in the last decades; different agents have been approved, and newer options are leaning towards higher efficacy and a more favourable safety profile; however, medications approved for a longer time are still available and useful for many patients. This document is an 2024 Update Position Statement of Specialists from the Brazilian Association for the Study of Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome (Abeso) and the Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism (SBEM), with the aim of reviewing all the approved medications for the management of obesity in Brazil (sibutramine, orlistat, liraglutide, semaglutide and bupropion/naltrexone fixed dose), with the addition of tirzepatide, that is approved in other countries and likely approved soon in Brazil.

Resumo O presente estudo avaliou as respostas hematológicas, antiparasitária e de crescimento de tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) após alimentação com dietas suplementadas com microalgas Arthospira platensis e Chlorella vulgaris (0%; 10% A. platensis; 10% C. vulgaris; e 5% A. platensis+5% C. vulgaris). Exemplares de tambaqui (n=60, 62,57±8,76 g) foram alimentados por 20 dias com as dietas experimentais. Amostras de sangue foram coletadas para determinação dos parâmetros hematológicos e brânquias foram retiradas para contagem de parasitos monogenéticos. A suplementação com A. platensis 10% reduziu o RBC, consequentemente aumentando os valores de VCM e HCM. As contagens de leucócitos (total) e de monócitos, eosinófilos e basófilos reduziram com o uso de A. platensis. Números altos de monócitos, eosinófilos e basófilos em tambaqui alimentado com dietas com 10% C. vulgaris foram observados e podem ter ocorrido devido à presença de imunoestimulantes na composição da microalga utilizada. Redução dos níveis plasmáticos de colesterol total em tambaqui indicou que a inclusão das duas microalgas (A. platensis 5%+C. vulgaris 5%) pode indicar que maiores benefícios à saúde do peixe do que quando separadamente suplementada. Ambas mostraram eficácia contra parasitos monogenéticos das brânquias de tambaqui. Assim, conclui-se que o uso das microalgas C. vulgaris e A. platensis promovem ação imunoestimulante com eficácia antiparasitária em C. macropomum. hematológicas Colossoma macropomum 0% 0 (0% 10 C 5 platensis5 platensis+5 vulgaris. . vulgaris) n=60, n60 n 60 (n=60 6257876 62 57 8 76 62,57±8,7 g 2 experimentais RBC HCM (total monócitos utilizada (A 5C 5%+C suplementada Assim concluise conclui se (0 1 platensis+ n=60 n6 6 (n=6 625787 7 62,57±8, ( n=6 (n= 62578 62,57±8 n= (n 6257 62,57± 625 62,57 62,5 62,
Abstract The present study evaluated the hematological, antiparasitic and growth responses in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) fed with diets supplemented with the microalgae Arthrospira platensis and Chlorella vulgaris (0%; 10% A. platensis; 10% C. vulgaris; and 5% A. platensis+5% C. vulgaris). Tambaqui (n=60, 62.57 ± 8.76 g) were fed for 20 days with experimental diets. Blood samples collection was done to determine hematological parameters, and gills were removed to identify and count monogenetic parasites. Supplementation with A. platensis 10% reduced red blood cells count, in consequence mean corpuscular volume and mean hemoglobin concentration increased. Total leukocyte, monocyte, eosinophil, and basophil counts reduced with the use of A. platensis. Higher monocytes, eosinophil, and basophil numbers in tambaqui fed with diet supplemented with 10% C. vulgaris were observed and may have been due to the presence of immunostimulants in this microalga composition. Reduction on total cholesterol in tambaqui that received both microalgae (A. platensis 5%+C. vulgaris 5%) may indicate that combined supplementation presented greater benefits to the health for C. macropomum than separately. Both microalgae were efficient against monogenetic parasites of tambaqui. Thus, the dietary use of the microalgae A. platensis and C. vulgaris provided immunostimulant and antiparasitic efficacy in C. macropomum.

Abstract Leishmaniasis is a disease of public health relevance that demands new therapeutic alternatives due to the toxicity of conventional treatments. In this study, 27 plants of interest to the Unified Health System (SUS) were evaluated for cytotoxicity in macrophages, leishmanicidal activity and production of nitric oxide (NO). None of the species demonstrated cytotoxicity to macrophages (CC50 >100 μg/mL). Extracts from Chenopodium ambrosioides, Equisetum arvense, Maytenus ilicifolia showed greater efficacy in inducing the death of Leishmania amazonensis amastigotes with IC50 of 68.4, 82.3, 75.7 μg/mL, respectively. The species Cynara scolymus, Punica granatum and Passiflora alata were the most effective in inducing an increase in the indirect concentration of NO (41.31, 29.30 and 28.86 µM, respectively) in cultures of macrophages infected with L. amazonensis. Furthermore, Punica granatum was also the most effective species in inducing an increase in NO in macrophages infected by Leishmania chagasi (19.90 µM). The results obtained so far support the continuation of studies, with the possibility of developing safer and more effective treatments for leishmaniasis, using natural products. The identification of plants that stimulate the production of NO in macrophages infected by Leishmania opens doors for more detailed investigations of the mechanism of action of these natural products. study 2 SUS (SUS NO. .

RESUMO O nitrogênio (N) merece destaque na recomendação de adubação para o pimentão, uma vez que é o nutriente absorvido em maior quantidade destacando-se pela quantidade exigida e pelas funções que exerce na planta. Objetivou-se avaliar a influência do nitrogênio aplicado em cobertura na produção de pimentão em campo aberto no período de outono/inverno. O experimento foi realizado em Argissolo Vermelho-Amarelo. Utilizou-se o delineamento em blocos ao acaso com quatro repetições. Os tratamentos foram constituídos de doses de N aplicadas em cobertura (0, 75; 150; 300 e 450 kg/ha). O N aumentou o número e a massa fresca de frutos por planta. O Índice SPAD aumentou com o incremento das doses de N nas três épocas de avaliação e com a época de avaliação. O pimentão cultivado no período de outono/inverno apresentou elevado potencial produtivo associado a doses de N superiores a recomendada atualmente. A produtividade de frutos comercializáveis aumenta até a dose de 214 kg/ha de N. O nível crítico para o índice SPAD variou com a idade das plantas, com valores estimados de 53,2; 66,5 e 61,9 aos 35, 56 e 154 dias após o transplante (DAT).

ABSTRACT Nitrogen (N) deserves special attention in the fertilization recommendation for bell peppers, as it is the nutrient absorbed in greater quantity, standing out for the amount required and the functions it performs in the plant. The objective was to evaluate the influence of nitrogen applied as top dressing on bell pepper production in open field during the autumn/winter period. The experiment was conducted in Red-Yellow Argisol. A randomized complete block design with four replications was used. Treatments consisted of nitrogen rates applied as top dressing (0, 75; 150; 300; and 450 kg/ha). Nitrogen increased the number and fresh mass of fruits per plant. The SPAD Reading increased with the increment of nitrogen rates in the three evaluation periods and with the evaluation period. Bell peppers grown during the autumn/winter period showed high productive potential associated with nitrogen rates higher than currently recommended. The yield of marketable fruits increases until 214 kg/ha of N. The critical level for the SPAD reading varied with the age of the plants, with estimated critical values of 53.2, 66.5, and 61.9 at 35, 56, and 154 days after transplanting (DAT).

ABSTRACT The limited temporal completeness and taxonomic accuracy of species lists, made available in a traditional manner in scientific publications, has always represented a problem. These lists are invariably limited to a few taxonomic groups and do not represent up-to-date knowledge of all species and classifications. In this context, the Brazilian megadiverse fauna is no exception, and the Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil (CTFB) (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/), made public in 2015, represents a database on biodiversity anchored on a list of valid and expertly recognized scientific names of animals in Brazil. The CTFB is updated in near real time by a team of more than 800 specialists. By January 1, 2024, the CTFB compiled 133,691 nominal species, with 125,138 that were considered valid. Most of the valid species were arthropods (82.3%, with more than 102,000 species) and chordates (7.69%, with over 11,000 species). These taxa were followed by a cluster composed of Mollusca (3,567 species), Platyhelminthes (2,292 species), Annelida (1,833 species), and Nematoda (1,447 species). All remaining groups had less than 1,000 species reported in Brazil, with Cnidaria (831 species), Porifera (628 species), Rotifera (606 species), and Bryozoa (520 species) representing those with more than 500 species. Analysis of the CTFB database can facilitate and direct efforts towards the discovery of new species in Brazil, but it is also fundamental in providing the best available list of valid nominal species to users, including those in science, health, conservation efforts, and any initiative involving animals. The importance of the CTFB is evidenced by the elevated number of citations in the scientific literature in diverse areas of biology, law, anthropology, education, forensic science, and veterinary science, among others. publications problem uptodate up date classifications context exception (CTFB http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/, httpfaunajbrjgovbr http //fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ , jbrj gov br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/) 2015 Brazil 80 specialists 1 2024 133691 133 691 133,69 125138 125 138 125,13 82.3%, 823 82 3 (82.3% 102000 102 000 102,00 7.69%, 769 7 69 (7.69% 11000 11 11,00 . 3,567 3567 567 (3,56 2,292 2292 2 292 (2,29 1,833 1833 833 (1,83 1,447 1447 447 (1,44 1000 1,00 831 (83 628 (62 606 (60 520 (52 50 users science health biology law anthropology education others http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ faunajbrjgovbr //fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ 201 8 202 13369 13 133,6 12513 12 125,1 82.3% (82.3 10200 10 00 102,0 7.69% 76 6 (7.69 1100 11,0 3,56 356 56 (3,5 2,29 229 29 (2,2 1,83 183 83 (1,8 1,44 144 44 (1,4 100 1,0 (8 62 (6 60 52 (5 5 http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br 20 1336 133, 1251 125, 82.3 (82. 1020 0 102, 7.69 (7.6 110 11, 3,5 35 (3, 2,2 22 (2, 1,8 18 (1, 1,4 14 4 ( 82.

Resumo Apesar do silício não ser considerado um elemento essencial, em algumas culturas como a soja, seu fornecimento pode estimular o desenvolvimento vegetativo e a produção vegetal. Foi estudado o crescimento de cultivares de soja em solo de Cerrado submetido à aplicação de doses de silício. O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação do Instituto Federal do Amapá – IFAP/Campus Agrícola Porto Grande. O delineamento experimental foi o inteiramente casualizado arranjado em esquema fatorial 5x2, com quatro repetições. Os fatores foram constituídos do tratamento controle (sem Si) e quatro doses de Si (250, 500, 750 e 1000 mg vaso-1 de SiO2), e duas cultivares de soja (BRS Tracajá e FTS Paragominas). Foram analisadas as variáveis de crescimento, como: altura da planta, diâmetro do colmo; e matéria seca da parte área e das raízes. O silício influenciou no aumento da altura quando avaliada as cultivares e doses isoladas, o mesmo comportamento foi observado na produção de matéria seca da parte aérea e total. O elemento silício auxilia na melhoria e no ganho de altura e outras características agronômicas avaliadas, mas os estudos com este elemento devem ser mais aplicados, para obter a resposta para outras variáveis e condições de estudo. essencial vegetal IFAPCampus IFAP Campus Grande 5x2 x repetições sem 250, 250 (250 500 75 100 vaso1 vaso 1 vaso- SiO2, SiO2 SiO , SiO2) BRS Paragominas.

Abstract Although silicon is not considered an essential element, in some crops such as soybeans, its supply can stimulate plant development and plant production. The growth of soybean cultivars in Cerrado soil subjected to the application of silicon doses was studied. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at the Instituto Federal do Amapá – IFAP/Campus Agrícola Porto Grande. The experimental design was completely randomized, arranged in a 5x2 factorial scheme, with four replications. The factors consisted of the control treatment (without Si) and four doses of Si (250, 500, 750 and 1000 mg pot-1 of SiO2), and two soybean cultivars (BRS Tracajá and FTS Paragominas). Growth variables were analyzed, such as: plant height, stem diameter; and dry matter of shoots and roots. Silicon influenced the increase in height when evaluating the cultivars and isolated doses, the same behavior was observed in the dry matter production of the aerial part and total. The element silicon helps in the improvement and gain in height and other evaluated agronomic characteristics, but studies with this element must be more applied, to obtain the answer for other variables and study conditions. soybeans studied IFAPCampus IFAP Campus Grande randomized x 5x scheme replications without 250, 250 (250 500 75 100 pot1 pot 1 pot- SiO2, SiO2 SiO , SiO2) BRS Paragominas.

Abstract The process known as powder bed fusion exhibits a lack of stabilization in the initial layers. One approach to address this challenge involves introducing a gas flow across the particulate medium. This solution enables more targeted applications of the technique, especially in zero-gravity environments. The objective of this study is to validate a methodology that utilizes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the discrete element method (DEM) to apply a gas flow within a porous medium under gravity-free conditions. The validity of the proposed solution was assessed using Ergun’s equation, resulting in an error of 6.65%, and the Kozeny-Carman equation, resulting in an error of 10.53%. The drag force exerted on the particles in the simulations surpassed the gravitational force (1g). Consequently, the application investigated in this study represents an effective alternative for employing 3D printing in the absence of gravitational forces. layers technique zerogravity zero gravity environments CFD (CFD DEM (DEM gravityfree free conditions Erguns Ergun s equation 665 6 65 6.65% KozenyCarman Kozeny Carman 1053 10 53 10.53% 1g. 1g g .

Abstract The chemical conversion of gypsum into synthetic hydroxyapatite is an attractive approach to enhance the value of gypsum, a low-cost material, which can be discreetly implanted. The addition of biopolymers improves the resistance of the materials both before and after conversion. In this study, hydroxyapatite was produced from gypsum using a fixed water-to-gypsum ratio (w/g) of 0.7, along with gypsum/polymer composites. The polymers employed were polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) at various mass ratios. Two methods were used to create the bodies: molding the paste and subtractive manufacturing. Mechanical compression tests were conducted both pre- and post-conversion to evaluate the impact of the conversion on material resistance and to compare it with the strength of subtractive manufacturing composites. For the gypsum/PHB composite, the best result was achieved at a 1% polymer concentration, yielding a resistance of 9.1±0.4 MPa, while for gypsum/PVAc, a compressive strength of 9.3±0.3 MPa was obtained at a 2% polymer concentration. lowcost low cost implanted study watertogypsum water w/g wg w g (w/g 07 0 7 0.7 gypsumpolymer composites PHB (PHB PVAc (PVAc ratios bodies pre postconversion post gypsumPHB composite 1 concentration 9104 9 4 9.1±0. gypsumPVAc gypsum/PVAc 9303 3 9.3±0. 2 0. 910 9.1±0 930 9.3±0 91 9.1± 93 9.3± 9.1 9.3 9.

Anacardic acid (AA) is a bioactive phytochemical found in the nutshell of Anacardium occidentale, a tropical plant originally from Brazil. In this work, cross-linked anacardic acid nanocapsules (NC) were obtained by interfacial polymerization carried out using the inverse miniemulsion technique with 2,4-toluene diisocyanate (TDI). For this purpose, a functionalized monomer from AA was synthesized for formation of lipase-cleavable ester linkages by coupling of amino acids. The synthesis was planned so that when these ester linkages get exposed to an enzyme, they are broken down and released AA. Furthermore, the N-termini of the coupled amino compounds were used as sites for the polyaddition with TDI at the droplet interface in the inverse miniemulsion. The permeability of the shell was studied on the fluorescent dye, sulforhodamine 101 (SR101), using fuorescence spectroscopy After redispersion in water, the enzymatic cleavage of NC and the release of the SR101 were both monitored in real time. The released AA was proven to be active in vitro against Bacillus subtilis colonies in the bacterial tests. The results indicate that the use of NC is a promising strategy, which can make feasible the application of AA for therapeutic purposes and as nanocarriers for the delivery of active components.
