Small mammals naturally infected with Schistosoma mansoni were studied in the valley of the Paraíba do Sul river (São Paulo State, Brazil). 192 animals of 12 species were examined post mortem. Cavia aperea, Holochilus brasiliensis leucogaster, Nectomys squamipes squamipes, Oryzomys nigripes eliurus and Zygodontomys brachyurus were found infected. Most schistosome eggs found in the faeces were mature but no eggs were found in the faeces of C. aperea although adults were recovered. In the other infected ...

Sulfamethazine (SMT) is an emerging pollutant continuously delivered into water bodies that has attracted growing attention due to its recalcitrant behavior in the environment. Although UV-based technologies have been investigated for the treatment of both water and wastewater containing SMT, photosensitization of the target compound is not usually examined during photo-induced oxidation processes. It is not our intention to propose processes for water treatment, only to understand the phenomena ...

The recent development of high-frequency ultrasound, associated with the improved sensitivity in color Doppler, enabled the identification of various skin structures and layers. In basal cell carcinoma, the 22 MHz frequency ultrasound permits the delimitation of tumor margins, while color Doppler, determines its vascularization. We present two cases in which the association of both exams allowed an in vivo analysis of the tumor's morphology, size, thickness and vascularization, thus contributing ...
