In this study, we aimed to investigate the anticancer activity of the extract, fractions, and isolated compounds of the flowers of Fridericia platyphylla, and to characterize the bioactive compounds. The chemical diversity of the extracts and fractions was investigated using liquid chromatography coupled with high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS). We were able to annotate 26 compounds from the classes of flavones, flavonols, flavanones, isoflavones, and cinnamic acid and its derivatives. The dichloromethane fraction showed greater cytotoxicity at a concentration of 100 µg mL−1. In addition, the inhibitory concentrations of the dichloromethane fraction were 22.14 and 30.9 µg mL−1 for MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines, respectively, and were capable of inhibiting tumor cell migration. Brachydins A and C were isolated from the dichloromethane fraction and showed the greatest cytotoxicity. The results obtained from this study show the potential biological effect of F. platyphylla flowers as a possible antitumor pharmacological agent. extract LCHRMS. LCHRMS LC HRMS .

ABSTRACT Objective: To verify the use and identify advantages of molecular methods for congenital infections diagnosis in cerebrospinal fluid of neonates. Data source: The review was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO), under CRD42021274210. The literature search was performed in databases: PubMed, Virtual Health Library/ Latin American and Caribbean Center on Health Sciences Information (VHL/BIREME), Scopus, Web of Science, Excerpta Medica database (EMBASE), Cochrane, ProQuest, and EBSCOhost. The search was carried out from August to October 2021 and updated in December 2022, respecting the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The selection sequence was: 1) Duplicate title removal; 2) Examination of titles and abstracts; 3) Full-text retrieval of potentially relevant reports; and 4) Evaluation of the full text according to eligibility criteria by two independent authors. Inclusion criteria considered randomized and non-randomized control trials, longitudinal, cross-sectional, and peer-reviewed studies in humans, published in English, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese, with newborns up to 28 days old who had congenital neuroinfections by toxoplasmosis, rubella, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex (TORCH), and others such as Treponema pallidum, Zika, parvovirus B-19, varicella zoster, Epstein-Barr, and SARS-CoV2, diagnosed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Two evaluators extracted the following information: author, year of publication, nationality, subjects, study type, methods, results, and conclusion. Data synthesis: The most studied pathogen was herpes simplex. Several articles reported only nonspecific initial symptoms, motivating the collection of cerebrospinal fluid and performing PCR for etiological investigation. Conclusions: Molecular methods are effective to detect pathogen genomes in cerebrospinal fluid, which can impact clinical evolution and neurological prognosis.

Resumo O acúmulo de produtos finais de glicação avançada (AGEs, do inglês advanced glycation end-products) provoca comprometimento morfofuncional dos rins. Os níveis de AGEs podem ser estimados de forma não invasiva por autofluorescência da pele (sAF). Exploramos se a sAF elevada prediz desfechos renais em indivíduos com diabetes tipo 2 (DT2). O estudo foi realizado como uma análise predefinida do Estudo Brasileiro sobre Diabetes, uma coorte prospectiva de centro único de adultos com DT2. Foram considerados os dados de 155 indivíduos acompanhados por até 1.716 dias. A incidência de eventos renais adversos maiores (MAKE, por sua sigla em inglês) foi de 9,6%. Indivíduos com sAF acima da mediana apresentaram maior incidência de MAKEs (4,6% vs. 21%; p = 0,002), com HR de 3,39 [IC 95%: 1,06–10,85; p = 0,040] após ajuste por idade e sexo. A alteração média da TFGe ajustada foi de 1,08 unidades (EP: 1,15; IC95%: –1,20, 3,37) no grupo de baixa sAF e de –5,19 unidades [EP: 1,93; IC95%: –9,10, –1,29] no grupo de elevada sAF (diferença entre sujeitos: F: 5,62; p = 0,019). O grupo sAF elevada apresentou maior prevalência de declínio rápido em comparação ao grupo sAF baixa (36,7% vs. 15,8%; p = 0,028). Em conclusão, a sAF elevada foi relacionada ao aumento da incidência de MAKEs e ao declínio mais rápido da TFGe entre indivíduos com DT2. Tal fato deve ser considerado pelos profissionais de saúde ao identificar indivíduos mais propensos a complicações renais relacionadas ao diabetes.

Abstract The accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) elicits morphofunctional kidney impairment. AGEs levels can be noninvasively estimated by skin autofluorescence (SAF). We explored whether high SAF predicts kidney outcomes in type 2 diabetes (T2D) individuals. The study was conducted as a predefined analysis of the Brazilian Diabetes Study, a prospective single-center cohort of T2D adults. Data from 155 individuals followed for up to 1716 days were considered. The incidence of major adverse kidney events (MAKE) was 9.6%. Individuals with above-median SAF had a higher incidence of MAKEs (4.6% vs. 21%; p = 0.002), with an HR of 3.39 [95% CI: 1.06–10.85; p = 0.040] after adjustment by age and gender. The mean adjusted eGFR change was 1.08 units (SE: 1.15; 95%CI: –1.20, 3.37) in the low SAF and –5.19 units [SE: 1.93; 95%CI: –9.10, –1.29] in the high SAF groups (between-subject difference: F: 5.62, p = 0.019). The high-SAF group had a greater prevalence of rapid decliners than the low-SAF group (36.7% vs. 15.8%; p = 0.028). In conclusion, high SAF was related to increased incidence of MAKEs and faster decline in eGFR among T2D subjects. This should be considered by healthcare providers when identifying individuals more prone to diabetes-related kidney complications. endproducts end products (AGEs impairment SAF. .

Abstract To date, hydroxyurea is the only effective and safe drug that significantly reduces morbidity and mortality of individuals with Sickle cell disease. Twenty years of real-life experience has demonstrated that hydroxyurea reduces pain attacks, vaso-occlusive events, including acute chest syndrome, the number and duration of hospitalizations and the need for transfusion. The therapeutic success of hydroxyurea is directly linked to access to the drug, the dose used and adherence to treatment which, in part, is correlated to the availability of hydroxyurea. This consensus aims to reduce the number of mandatory exams needed to access the drug, prioritizing the requesting physician's report, without affecting patient safety. date disease reallife real life attacks vasoocclusive vaso occlusive events syndrome transfusion which part physicians physician s report safety

Resumo Introdução: a associação entre a diminuição da atividade física e o isolamento social já foi descrita na literatura, entretanto a relação do nível de adesão dos idosos às medidas protetivas durante a pandemia da covid-19 e os efeitos ocasionados pela inatividade física na condição de fragilidade permanece com expressivo hiato de conhecimento. Objetivo: analisar os efeitos do distanciamento e do isolamento sociais gerados pela pandemia da covid-19 na fragilidade em idosos e nas atividades físicas realizadas por eles da atenção primária à saúde de uma Unidade Básica de Saúde do Brasil. Materiais e método: estudo de coorte prospectivo, realizado nos domicílios e em unidades básicas de saúde. Na primeira onda, pré-pandemia, a amostra foi composta por idosos (n = 168) não frágeis. Após o seguimento médio de 762 dias, realizou-se uma segunda onda, em que se classificaram os idosos conforme o nível de exposição ao distanciamento e ao isolamento sociais (n = 100), bem como se observaram os desfechos “nível de atividade física” e “condição de fragilidade”. Aplicaram-se questionários sociodemográfico e clínico, miniexame do estado mental, marcadores de fragilidade física e grau de adesão ao distanciamento e ao isolamento sociais. Realizaram se análises estatísticas descritivas, de associação, curvas de sobrevida e regressão de riscos proporcionais. Resultados: 53 % dos idosos transicionaram para a pré-fragilidade e 21 % apresentaram diminuição de atividade física. Houve elevado percentual de baixo grau de adesão ao distanciamento e ao isolamento sociais, e não se observou associação com atividade física e fragilidade (p = 0,288; p = 0,351, respectivamente). Mulheres tiveram mais risco de se classificarem como pré-frágeis ou frágeis (2,53; IC 95 %, 1,01-6,34) e de apresentarem diminuição de atividade física (2,13; IC 95 %, 1,06-4,26). Conclusão: não houve associação entre medidas protetivas de distanciamento e isolamento social, atividade física e fragilidade. Idosos que apresentam redução do nível de atividade física devem ser estimulados à sua prática a fim de se manterem ativos e se evitar a transição para a fragilidade, para a perda de funcionalidade e para a dependência.

Resumen Introducción: la asociación entre la disminución de la actividad física y el aislamiento social ya ha sido descrita en la literatura, sin embargo la relación entre el nivel de adherencia de los ancianos a las medidas de protección durante la pandemia de covid-19 y los efectos causados por la inactividad física sobre la condición de fragilidad permanece con un importante vacío de conocimiento. Objetivo: analizar los efectos del distanciamiento y el aislamiento social generados por la pandemia de covid-19 sobre la fragilidad de los ancianos y las actividades físicas realizadas por ellos en la atención primaria de salud en una Unidad Básica de Salud en Brasil. Materiales y método: estudio de cohorte prospectivo, realizado en domicilios y en unidades de atención primaria de salud. En la primera oleada, prepandémica, la muestra estaba formada por ancianos no frágiles (n = 168). Tras un seguimiento medio de 762 días, se llevo a cabo una segunda etapa, en la que se clasifico a los ancianos en función de su nivel de exposición al distanciamiento social y al aislamiento (n = 100), así como de los resultados “nivel de actividad física” y “estado de fragilidad”. Se utilizaron cuestionarios sociodemográficos y clínicos, miniexamen del estado mental, marcadores de fragilidad física y grado de adhesión al distanciamiento y el aislamiento social. Se realizaron estadísticas descriptivas, análisis de asociación, curvas de supervivencia y regresión de riesgos proporcionales. Resultados: el 53 % de los ancianos pasaron a la situación de prefragilidad y el 21 % mostraron una disminución de la actividad física. Hubo un alto porcentaje de baja adherencia al distanciamiento social y al aislamiento, y no hubo asociación con la actividad física y la fragilidad (p = 0,288; p = 0,351, respectivamente). Las mujeres tenían un mayor riesgo de ser clasificadas como pre-frágiles o frágiles (2,53; IC 95 %, 1,01-6,34) y de mostrar una disminucion de la actividad fisica (2,13; IC 95 %, 1,06-4,26). Conclusión: no hubo asociación entre las medidas protectoras de distanciamiento social y aislamiento, actividad física y fragilidad. Se debería animar a los ancianos con un nivel reducido de actividad física a practicarla para mantenerse activos y evitar la transición a la fragilidad, la perdida de funcionalidad y la dependencia.

Abstract Introduction: The association between reduced physical activity and social isolation has been described in the literature, but the relationship between the level of adherence to protective measures among older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic and the effects of physical inactivity on frailty remains a significant knowledge gap. Objective: To analyze the effects of social distancing and isolation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic on frailty in the elderly and on their physical activities in primary health care in a basic health unit in Brazil. Materials and methods: A prospective cohort study conducted in households and basic health units. In the first wave, before the pandemic, the sample consisted of non-frail elderly (n = 168). After a mean follow-up of 762 days, a second wave was conducted in which the elderly were classified according to their level of exposure to social distancing and isolation (n = 100) and the outcomes “level of physical activity” and “frailty status” were observed. Sociodemographic and clinical questionnaires, the Mini-Mental State Examination, physical markers of frailty, and level of exposure to social distancing and isolation were used. Descriptive statistics, association, survival curves, and proportional hazards regression were used. Results: Of the elderly, 53% transitioned to pre-frailty and 21% showed a decrease in physical activity. There was a high percentage of low adherence to social distancing and isolation, and there was no association with physical activity and frailty (p = 0.288; p = 0.351, respectively). Women had a higher risk of being classified as prefrail or frail (2.53; 95% CI, 1.01-6.34) and of having a decrease in physical activity (2.13; 95% CI, 1.06-4.26). Conclusion: There was no association between protective measures of social distancing and isolation, physical activity, and frailty. Older people with reduced levels of physical activity should be encouraged to exercise to remain active and avoid the transition to frailty, functional decline, and dependency.

ABSTRACT: Purple-fleshed sweet potato is a tuber rich in anthocyanins, which are phenolic pigments that confer color and present bioactive capacity. Moreover, its incorporation into dairy products can bring technological and functional benefits. Thus, this article evaluated the impact of the addition of lyophilized purple-fleshed sweet potato powder- LP (0% - Control, 2%, and 4%) on the physical, chemical, and technological characteristics of Greek yogurt. LP showed in vitro antioxidant and bioactive capacity by DPPH (20.64 ± 1.61 μmol TE g-1), FRAP (112.93 ± 4.38 μmol TE g-1), total phenolic content (103.66 ± 3.35 mg GAE g-1), and total anthocyanin content (51.10 ± 1.87 mg cyanidin 3-glucoside 100 g-1). Additionally, the assays demonstrated that the LP has 16.82 ± 0.63% of resistant starch. The fortification of Greek yogurt with LP reduced the syneresis, indicating that LP increased the water retention capacity. LP also inhibited the post-acidification process, increasing apparent viscosity, hardness, and gumminess, and promoting a stable pink coloration throughout the storage (P < 0.05). At the 4% level, the yogurt was firmer and showed greater chewiness, which is highly desirable for Greek yogurt. Therefore, the results suggested that lyophilized purple-fleshed sweet potato powder is a potential multifunctional natural ingredient.

RESUMO: Batata-doce de polpa roxa é um tubérculo rico em antocianinas, as quais são pigmentos fenólicos que conferem cor e apresentam capacidade bioativa. Além disso, sua incorporação em produtos lácteos pode trazer benefícios tecnológicos e funcionais. Desta forma, este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o impacto da adição de pó liofilizado de batata-doce de polpa roxa - LP (0% - Controle, 2% e 4%) nas características físicas, químicas e tecnológicas de iogurte tipo Grego. LP apresentou capacidade antioxidante e bioativa in vitro para DPPH (20.64 ± 1.61 μmol TE g-1), FRAP (112.93 ± 4.38 μmol TE g-1), teor de compostos fenólicos totais (103.66 ± 3.35 mg GAE g-1) e teor de antocianinas totais (51.10 ± 1.87 mg cyanidin 3-glucoside 100 g-1). Adicionalmente, os ensaios demonstraram que o LP possui 16,82 ± 0,63% de amido resistente. A fortificação do iogurte Grego com LP reduziu a sinérese, indicando que LP aumentou a capacidade de retenção de água, LP também inibiu o processo pós-acidificação, aumentando a viscosidade aparente, a dureza e a gomosidade, e promovendo uma coloração rosa estável durante todo o armazenamento (P < 0,05). No nível de 4%, o iogurte apresentou-se mais firme e com maior mastigabilidade, o que é altamente desejável para o iogurte tipo Grego. Assim, os resultados sugerem que o pó liofilizado de batata-doce de polpa roxa é um potencial ingrediente natural multifuncional.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate agronomic performance in cultivars of the Cavendish banana under the soil and climate conditions of the microregion of Assis in the state of São Paulo over three production cycles. The experiment was set up at the Fazenda São José Farm, Água do Pau d´Alho, in Palmital, São Paulo. The Grande Naine, IAC2001 and FHIA02 cultivars were evaluated, considering the following variables: cultivar; plant height; pseudostem perimeter; number of leaves at flowering and harvest; number of days from planting to flowering, from planting to harvest, and from flowering to harvest; weight of the bunch, stalk and fruit per bunch; number of hands per bunch; productivity of the fruit and pulp; weight and number of fingers on the second hand; weight, length and diameter of the finger; pulp diameter; and weight and thickness of the peel. The data were subjected to multivariate statistical techniques (principal component factor analysis, tree clustering, two-way joining, and correspondence). The results showed the extraction of three principal factors that accounted for 89.63% of the total variance of the characteristics under analysis: banana production (Factor 1), vegetative development (Factor 2), and cultivars and fruit diameter (Factor 3). The productive performance of the FHIA02 cultivar was homogeneous and inferior to that of the other cultivars, as seen in the two-way joining cluster analysis.

We conducted a cross-sectional study using data from the 2019 National School-Based Health Survey. The outcome was use of the three substances during the last 30 days. Hierarchical multiple logistic regression was carried out with independent variables grouped into four blocks: sociodemographic characteristics; family context; behavioral aspects; and stressors. Variables with p<0.05 were retained in the final model. The prevalence of concurrent substance use was 3.3%. Being male, living in the Midwest, South and Southeast, skipping school without parent permission, parents not knowing what their children do in their free time, having parents who smoke, having experienced physical aggression from parents, feeling that life is not worth living, trying drinking and illicit drugs before the age of 13, and having friends who drink alcohol, smoke and use drugs in their presence remained associated with the outcome in the final model. The findings reveal high prevalence of concurrent alcohol, cigarette and illicit drug use among adolescents and that poly use is associated with sociodemographic, family, and behavioral factors and stressors. alcohol 1317. 1317 13 17. 17 13-17 crosssectional cross sectional 201 SchoolBased School Based Survey 3 days blocks characteristics context aspects stressors p005 p 0 05 p<0.0 model 33 3.3% male Midwest Southeast permission time 131 1 13-1 20 p00 p<0. 3.3 13- 2 p0 p<0 3. p<

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between upper limb kinetics and perceived fatigability in elderly individuals during an upper limb position sustained isometric task. METHODS: A total of 31 elderly participants, 16 men (72.94±4.49 years) and 15 women (72.27±6.05 years), performed a upper limb position sustained isometric task. Upper-limb acceleration was measured using an inertial measurement unit. Perceived fatigability was measured using the Borg CR10 scale. RESULTS: Higher mean acceleration in the x-axis throughout the activity was associated with higher final perceived fatigability scores. Moderate correlations were observed between perceived fatigability variation and mean acceleration cutoffs in all axes during the second half of the activity. In women, significant correlations were found between all perceived fatigability cutoffs and mean acceleration in the y- and x-axes. However, in men, the relationships between perceived fatigability variation and mean acceleration were more extensive and stronger. CONCLUSION: The acceleration pattern of the upper limb is linked to perceived fatigability scores and variation, with differences between sexes. Monitoring upper limb acceleration using a single inertial measurement unit can be a useful and straightforward method for identifying individuals who may be at risk of experiencing high perceived fatigability or task failure.

Abstract Biomarkers of environmental contamination have been frequently used in the assessment of marine ecosystem quality because they provide quantitative measures of biological changes in organisms exposed to pollutants such as hydrocarbons from oil spills. Polychaetes have been tested as sentinel organisms of marine environmental health because they are abundant taxa of benthic assemblages and their sedentary lifestyle ensures chronic exposure to toxins in impacted areas. In this study, we evaluated whether the polychaete Scolelepis goodbodyi can be used as a reliable sentinel species for exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from an experimental diesel spill in a dissipative sand beach in the Southern Atlantic. The design used in this study comprised replicated control and diesel impact sites sampled four times (one, two, four and seven days) before and after the impact. Total PAH levels reached 114.0 ng g -1 in the impact site one day after the diesel spill; however, the pattern of biomarker responses in S. goodbodyi was primarily influenced by spatial variation rather than being attributed to the simulated diesel spill. The apparent absence of a contaminating effect may be linked to the low levels of the toxins retained in the sediment after the spill was simulated to elicit a response or to the presence of an efficient repair system within the organism. Furthermore, the sediments tested in this study, composed of sandy fractions, had a low capacity to concentrate PAHs after the simulated diesel spill, which may have contributed to the low significant changes in their biomarker activities. Based on our results, further studies testing other Polychaeta species and simulating oil spills in sedimentary environments composed of fine sediments such as salt marshes and mangroves may help produce evidence on more effective biomarker responses in these organisms. areas (PAHs Atlantic one, (one two days 1140 114 0 114. 1 - however S organism Furthermore fractions activities results 11

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of prebiotics, alone and in combination with antibiotics, on broiler performance, carcass yield, intestinal permeability, and intestinal morphometry. A total of 1440 day-old male Cobb 500 chicks were distributed in a completely randomized design, with four treatments and 10 replications per treatment. The treatments used were a basal diet without prebiotics and antibiotics (BD), a basal diet with antibiotics (AB), a basal diet with prebiotics (PRE), and a basal diet with antibiotics and prebiotics (AB+PRE). To perform the treatment, the antibiotic zinc bacitracin and a prebiotic of S. cerevisiae-derived mannan-oligosaccharides and beta-glucans were used. The treatments did not affect the performance of birds from 1 to 7 and 1 to 21 days of age. From 1 to 35 and 1 to 42 days, birds fed the AB+PRE treatment had higher feed intake than those fed the AB treatment. From 1 to 35 days, birds fed the AB+PRE treatment showed a worse feed conversion ratio. However, there was no difference in carcass yield between treatments. A higher number of goblet cells was observed in the duodenum and ileum of birds fed AB+PRE, but lower counts were obtained in birds fed AB. Intestinal histomorphometry displayed similar responses between both ages regarding antibiotic and prebiotic treatments, except in the ileum at 42 days, in which the antibiotic elicited a better response. Intestinal permeability analysis showed no significant difference between diets. The use of prebiotics, alone or in combination with antibiotics, does not improve the performance of broilers. morphometry 144 dayold day old 50 design BD, BD , (BD) AB, (AB) PRE, PRE (PRE) AB+PRE.

ABSTRACT Purpose: to carry out a pilot study applying the Reading and Language Together - Brazil program (RELATo-Brazil), targeting the development of reading and oral language abilities, aiming to improve phonological awareness skills and vocabulary knowledge in the school context. Methods: 9 children of both genders, aged between 8 and 10, enrolled in the second year of elementary school at a private school in the city of Florianópolis, SC, Brazil, joined in the study. The program was applied within three phases: Phase 1 - pre-intervention, with reading and vocabulary assessment tests; Phase 2 - intervention with sessions of different types, A, B, C and Phase 3 - post-intervention, which consisted of the subjects' reassessment, using the same tests applied in Phase 1. The data were stored in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and exported for statistical analysis in the IBM SPSS software, the 25th version. The significance level considered was p ≤ 0.05. Results: following 21 intervention sessions, a better performance among the participants was observed when comparing the results of the pre-intervention and post-intervention phases. There is a statistically considerable difference in the percentage distributions of the conceptual vocabulary fields for Furniture and utensils (p=0.028), Places (p=0.009) and Shapes and colors (p=0.047). The reading rate did not show a statistical difference, but the children performed better in reading time and accuracy after the intervention. Conclusion: the data suggest that training in phoneme awareness and oral language and linking them in the context of authentic book reading are effective strategies for improving both reading and oral language skills.

Abstract This study analyzed the construction process of the chosen name and related aspects among transgender individuals from a medium-sized municipality in southern Brazil. Qualitative data from a descriptive and exploratory mixed-method study was used. Self-declared trans people aged 18 or over were included. Three focus groups were conducted with ten participants. These individuals, aged between 19 and 52 years, have a documented chosen name, but half have not yet changed their civil records. The content analysis technique produced two categories: “construction of the chosen name as an instrument for validating the transgender identity” and “impacts of the construction of the chosen name on self-acceptance and on family and social relationships.” The results reinforce the importance of respecting the name as a way of contributing to the gender affirmation of transgender individuals. The name was linked to the experiences, individuality and values of these individuals. Its proper use, much more than respect for legislation, meant respect for the different possibilities of human existence. It is expected that the results presented can be used as a tool for recognizing the issues and nuances that permeate the construction of the chosen name and contribute to identity validation. mediumsized medium sized Brazil mixedmethod mixed method Selfdeclared Self declared 1 included participants 5 years records categories impacts selfacceptance self acceptance relationships. relationships experiences use legislation existence validation

Resumo O trabalho analisou o processo de construção do nome social e aspectos relacionados em pessoas trans de um município de porte médio do Sul do Brasil. Foram utilizados dados qualitativos de um estudo de método misto descritivo e exploratório. Incluíram-se pessoas autodeclaradas trans com 18 anos ou mais. Foram conduzidos três grupos focais com dez participantes. Estes, com idade variando entre 19 e 52 anos, apresentam nome social documentado, porém metade ainda não fez a alteração nos registros civis. A técnica da análise de conteúdo produziu duas categorias: “construção do nome social como instrumento de validação da identidade trans” e “impactos da construção do nome social na autoaceitação e nas relações familiares e sociais”. Os resultados reforçam a importância do respeito ao nome como forma de contribuição para a afirmação de gênero de sujeitos trans. O nome esteve atrelado às suas vivências, individualidades e valores. Seu uso adequado, muito mais do que o cumprimento de uma legislação, significou respeito às possibilidades diversas da existência humana. Espera-se que os resultados apresentados possam ser utilizados como ferramenta de reconhecimento acerca das questões e nuances que permeiam a construção do nome social, bem como contribuam para a validação identitária.

ABSTRACT: Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.; GB) is one of the most consumed pulses worldwide. Fermentation with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) has been a strategy to improve the nutritional and technological quality of chickpea flours, in addition to reducing the levels of antinutritional factors. Thus, this study evaluated the effect of fermentation with Lacticaseibacillus casei or co-culture on water activity (Aw), color, antioxidant capacity, and techno-functional properties of chickpea flour. Chickpeas were fermented at 28 °C for 96 h with Lactobacillus Casei or co-culture, resulting in the samples GBLC and GBCC, respectively, dried at 50 °C, and ground to obtain the flours. Fermentation reduced (P < 0.05) the Wa and color parameters (L*, a*, and b*) of the fermented flours (GBCC and GBLC). In terms of techno-functional properties, GBCC flours showed lower emulsifying capacity (EC, 80%) and emulsion stability (ES, 82.50%). GBLC and GBCC flours showed significant differences (P < 0.05) in swelling power only at 25 °C and a reduction in water solubility index (WSI) at all studied temperatures. LAB fermentation reduced the antioxidant capacity of GBLC e GBCC flours determined by the DPPH method, while in the FRAP method, there was an increase for GBCC and a reduction for GBLC. For the total phenolic content (TPC), there was an increase of 231% for GBCC flour and 164% for GBLC flour. Thus, it was concluded that the fermentation with Lactobacillus Casei and co-culture affected the Wa, color, EC, ES, WSI, the antioxidant capacity by the DPPH and FRAP assays, and the TPC of the fermented flours.

RESUMO: O grão-de-bico (Cicer arietinum L.; GB) é um dos pulses mais consumidos no mundo. A fermentação com bactérias ácido-láticas (BAL) é uma estratégia eficaz para potencializar a qualidade nutricional e tecnológica de farinhas de GB, além de reduzir os teores de fatores antinutricionais. Desta forma, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da fermentação com Lactobacillus casei ou por co-cultura na capacidade antioxidante e nas propriedades tecno-funcionais de farinha de GB. O GB foi fermentado a 28 °C por 96 h com Lactobacillus Casei ou a co-cultura, resultando nas amostras GBLC e GBCC, respectivamente, seco a 50 oC e moído para obtenção das farinhas. A fermentação reduziu a Aw e os parâmetros de cor (L*, a* e b*) das farinhas fermentadas (GBCC e GBLC). Nas propriedades tecno-funcionais, a farinha GBCC apresentou menor capacidade emulsificante (CE, 80%) e estabilidade da emulsão (EE, 82,50%). As farinhas GBLC e GBCC apresentaram diferenças significativas no poder de inchamento apenas a 25 °C e redução no índice de solubilidade em água (ISA) em todas as temperaturas estudadas. A fermentação com BAL reduziu a capacidade antioxidante das farinhas GBLC e GBCC determinada pelo método DPPH, já no método FRAP houve um aumento para GBCC e uma redução para GBLC. Quanto ao teor de fenólicos totais (TFT), observou-se um aumento de 231% da farinha de GBCC e 164% da farinha de GBLC. Assim, conclui-se que a fermentação com Lactobacillus Casei e co-cultura afetou a Aw, a cor, CE, EE , ISA, a capacidade antioxidante pelos ensaios de DPPH e FRAP e o TFT das farinhas fermentadas.
