Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells were immobilized in calcium alginate and chitosan-covered calcium alginate beads and studied in the fermentation of glucose and sucrose for ethanol production. The batch fermentations were carried out in an orbital shaker and assessed by monitoring the concentration of substrate and product with HPLC. Cell immobilization in calcium alginate beads and chitosan-covered calcium alginate beads allowed reuse of the beads in eight sequential fermentation cycles of 10 h each. ...

This study aimed to characterize the chemical composition, determine the fatty acid profile, and quantify the bioactive compounds present in guava seed powder (Psidium guajava L.). The powder resulted from seeds obtained from guava pulp processing. The agro-industrial seeds from red guava cv. paluma were used, and they were donated by a frozen pulp fruit manufacturer. They contain varying amounts of macronutrients and micronutrients, with a high content of total dietary fiber (63.94 g/100g), protein ( ...

This paper reports an experimental study of the water injection control parameters in a single-cylinder research engine at 1500 rpm, under 5 and 8 bar indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP). The results were used to validate a tridimensional numerical model, and simulations extrapolated the experimental test conditions up to 10 bar IMEP and 3000 rpm. The main purpose of this work was to assess the impact of different water injection strategies on the engine combustion parameters. An interesting ...

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial tissue that is located outside the uterine cavity and associated with fibrosis and inflammatory reaction. It is a polymorphic and multifocal disease with no known cure or preventive mechanisms. Patients may be asymptomatic or may experience chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, or infertility. The pelvic cavity is the most common location for endometriotic implants, which usually affect the retrocervical space, ovaries, vagina, rectosigmoid ...

Three sequential fermentative batches were carried out with cell recycle in four simultaneously operating bioreactors maintained at pH 6.5, 30°C, and 100 rpm. P. acidipropionici ATCC 4875 was able to produce propionic and succinic acid from sorbitol. The concentration of propionic acid decreased slightly from 39.5 ± 5.2 g L(-1) to 34.4 ± 1.9 g L(-1), and that of succinic acid increased significantly from 6.1 ± 2.1 g L(-1) to 14.8 ± 0.9 g L(-1) through the sequential batches.

In Brazil, there is great diversity in the geomorphological evolution of landscapes as a result of the country’s massive geographical size (over 8.5 million km2). Diverse climates and palaeoclimates acting on different tectonic compartments, substrates, and reliefs have generated a rich diversity of natural landscapes. The Brazilian territory can be broadly divided into two tectonic mega-compartments: Amazonian Brazil and Atlantic Brazil (Extra-Amazonian Brazil). These two compartments are separated ...

Abstract Erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL) is an inflammatory complication in leprosy. Yet, the involvement of ENL neutrophils in the inflammatory response against Mycobacterium leprae remains poorly explored. Our primary aim was to investigate the utility of the surface expression of neutrophil IL-10R1 as an ENL biomarker and, secondarily, to evaluate whether leprosy or healthy M. leprae–stimulated neutrophils produce cytokines and are able to respond to IL-10. We, in this study, describe a subpopulation ...

Factor analysis was used to generate valid and reliable scales based on a sample of 205 Portuguese franchisee firms, and structural equation modeling methodology was then employed in the analysis. The results show franchisee-based brand equity (FBBE) to be a multivariate factor with strong influence on performance. ...

Mayaro virus (MAYV) is a sublethal arbovirus transmitted by mosquitoes with possible installation of an urban cycle in the Americas. Its infection causes disabling arthralgia, and still, there is no vaccine or treatment to it. We recently investigated nearly 600 compounds by molecular docking and identified epicatechin as a potent antiviral against MAYV. The root extract of Maytenus imbricata showed anti-MAYV activity and two isolated compounds from this plant were also evaluated in vitro. Proanthocyanidin ( ...

The hybridization of solar-thermal and combustion technologies for power generation is an emerging concept that brings the possibility to mitigate carbon dioxide emissions while maintaining a firm supply. This work presents a thermoeconomic model for a distributed-scale (<100 kWe) hybrid solar-thermal power plant, developed to study its performance under different operating conditions in a region with a yearly direct normal irradiance of around 1600 kWh/m2 yr. The proposed system consists of a combined ...

Global optimization analysis of the 38-atom sequence of CunAum (n+m=38) nanoalloy clusters was performed by means of a genetic algorithm and using the Gupta empirical potential. A subset of these global minimum structures was recalculated with more detail using density-functional theory (DFT) techniques, namely the sequence CunAu38-n with n=6,13,15,18,37. The density-functional theory analysis confirms some general qualitative trends observed in the cluster sequence using the genetic algorithm, namely: ( ...

The phenolic composition of olive fruits represents a vast and unique source of health beneficial molecules due to the presence of specific phenolic compounds (PCs), such as verbascoside (VERB), oleuropein (OLE) and its derivative molecules. Despite of being some of the most critical compounds regarding olive oil quality, these PCs are mostly abundant in olive fruits and leafs due to their hydrophilic nature. In olives, the phenolic profile suffers a deep and constant change along fruit ripening being ...

The biogeochemical cycles and food web in such restrictive environments may be exclusively formed by microorganisms. Polar mycological studies are recent and there is much to know about the diversity and genetic resources of these microorganisms. In this sense, the molecular taxonomic approach was applied to identify 129 fungal isolates from marine and terrestrial samples collected ...
