Fibrinolytic proteases are enzymes that provide a promising alternative to drugs for thrombolytic therapy, since they degrade fibrin, the major component of blood clots. Aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) using polyethylene glycol (PEG) 8000 and sodium phosphate were used to select optimal conditions for extracting a cysteine protease with fibrinolytic and fibrinogenolytic activity from the legume Gliricidia sepium PBSGS. For this purpose, extraction tests were conducted in accordance with a 24-factorial ...

Tests on titanium alloys that possess low elastic modulus, corrosion resistance and minimal potential toxicity are ongoing. This study aimed to evaluate the behavior of human osteoblastic cells cultured on dense and porous Titanium (Ti) samples comparing to dense and porous Ti–35 Niobium (Ti–35Nb) samples, using gene expression analysis. Scanning electronic microscopy confirmed surface porosity and pore interconnectivity and X-ray diffraction showed titanium beta-phase stabilization in Ti–35Nb alloy. ...

RESUMO No processo de urbanização, o aumento na proporção de superfícies impermeabilizadas e as mudanças no uso do solo são responsáveis por maiores volumes e velocidades do escoamento superficial, refletindo em uma maior capacidade de arraste e em um maior aporte de nutrientes nos corpos d'água receptores. O objetivo deste trabalho foi implementar uma ferramenta matemática capaz de reproduzir o impacto de mudanças na bacia hidrográfica sobre a dinâmica do fitoplâncton em um lago urbano.

The process of cryopreservation impairs sperm cell function, potentially leading to a reduction in fertility. The objectives of the present study were to evaluate the effects that cryopreservation using two different extenders has on sperm motility and mitochondrial function, as well as on the integrity of plasma membranes, acrosomal membranes and chromatin, using practical and objective techniques. The focus of the present study was to identify correlations between alterations in sperm membranes ...

In recent years, there has been a growing concern about some substances in the aquatic environment such as methylene blue dye (MB) and 17α-ethynylestradiol (EE2) hormone, mainly from waste textile and pharmaceutical industries, respectively. This waste, which is not effectively treated, generates large amounts of contaminated effluents. Textile industries, which use dyes mainly in their dyeing and finishing processes, generate a lot of effluent contamination by dyes. The 17α-ethynylestradiol hormone ...

The residue from the oil extraction of cottonseeds is an important foodstuff for animals, being a source of high quality protein and other important components, such as calcium, phosphorus, iron and vitamins in addition to its energy value. However, these products have an anti-nutritional factor, gossypol, and its concentration in these derivatives depends on the degree of oil extraction. Gossypol is a phenolic yellowish pigment, the pigment produced by the glands found in the roots, stems, leaves ...

One of the most exciting questions about the human voice is how the vocal fold produces and modulates different sounds. One hypothesis to explain the wide range of movements found in the vocal fold is based on the variety of muscle fiber orientations in the thyroarytenoid (TA) muscle. The tongue (TO) muscle is considered the most complex structure in the body in terms of muscle fiber orientation and movements. Thus, possible similarities between these two muscles and their innervations, the recurrent ...

Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY) were used as a normotensive control group. In untreated rats, intravital videomicroscopy showed that functional capillary density was lower in SHR skeletal muscle (WKY 395 +/- 17 and SHR 258 +/- 13 capillaries/mm, P < 0.01) and ear skin (WKY 391 +/- 18 and SHR 210 +/- 15 capillaries/mm, P < 0.01).

The dichloromethane extract of Calea uniflora afforded a mixture of two novel chromanones, uniflorol-A (1) and uniflorol-B (2), and one known chromanone, 2,2-dimethyl-6- (1-hydroxyethyl)-chroman-4-one (3). The structures of these compounds were determined by spectroscopic methods. Biological activity of the compounds against Leishmania major promastigotes was evaluated. Mixture of the novel chromanones 1 and 2 showed significant growth inhibition of the parasite in the micrograms per milliliter range.

Thus, the aim of the present study is to test the hypothesis that the exposure of adult Danio rerio individuals to this pollutant for 30 days is enough to cause polylactic acid biomicroplastics (BioMPs of PLA) accumulation in their bodies, which leads to behavioral/neurotoxic, ...
