The ability of lipolytic yeasts to grow on olive mill wastewater (OMW)-based medium and to produce high-value compounds while degrading this waste, was tested. OMW collected from three-phase olive mills from the North region of Portugal were characterized and used. OMW with COD ranging from 100 g L−1 to 200 g L−1 were supplemented with yeast extract and ammonium chloride. Studies of OMW consumption were carried out in batch cultures of Candida rugosa, Candida cylindracea and Yarrowia lipolytica. ...

There is worldwide concern with the increasing rates of infections due to multiresistant Candida isolates reported in tertiary medical centers. We checked for historical trends in terms of prevalence rates and antifungal susceptibility of the Candida haemulonii species complex in our yeast stock culture collected during the last 11 years. The isolates were identified by sequencing the rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, and antifungal susceptibility tests for amphotericin B, voriconazole, ...

Abstract. Hydrological studies in small basins are essential for investigating the role of distinct processes on water resources conservation and to assess the impact of the natural ecosystems on improving water security especially in semiarid environments. In Brazil, the cooperative hydrological Network REHISA (“REde de HIdrologia do SemiÁrido”) comprises hydrologists from several universities of Brazil, focusing on field measurements, monitoring and modeling activities in well instrumented experimental ...

Mining contributes to the global economy on different scales and plays a fundamental role in the development of the goods and services sectors. However, the negative impacts caused by the activity are unavoidable, as they intensely degrade soil structures and modify landscapes. The use of native tree species has been effective in restoring the structure and functions of post-mining ecosystems in the Amazon. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate chemical indicators of soil quality, survival ...

The cell wall is an essential component in fungal homeostasis. The lack of a covering wall in human cells make this component an attractive target for antifungal development. The host environment and antifungal stress can lead to cell wall modifications related to drug resistance. Antifungals targeting the cell wall, including the new β-D-glucan synthase inhibitor ibrexafungerp and glycosyl-phosphatidyl Inositol (GPI) anchor pathway inhibitor fosmanogepix are promising weapons against antifungal ...

As the typical range of influence of oil spills surrounds urbanised and economically active areas, it is likely that fragile regions may not be part of the most vulnerable zones. This premise is remediated in this paper with the adoption of a vulnerability approach based on the integration of static and dynamic information, such as oil pollution susceptibility. Susceptibility is a poorly consolidated term and is often used as synonym for environmental sensitivity; it is considered here to be the ...

This paper presents a new methodology for allocating transmission system costs in single or interconnected energy markets. Initially, the proposed method allows the decomposition of the total transmission cost into two components: the first corresponds to the utilized network capacity, estimated at a specified operating condition, and the second refers to the transmission capacity available but not used in the system. A technique for decomposing nodal tariffs per subsystem guarantees the applicability ...

This work presents a control strategy applied to a doubly fed induction machine (DFIM) for wind generation in a medium power system. In order to control the active power and reactive power exchange between the machine and the grid, the rotor is fed by a link of AC-DC-AC converters modeled as voltage and controlled current sources, respectively. The control of the rotor-side converter is realized by fuzzy controllers whose performances are compared with that of conventional Proportional-Integral controllers. ...

Antifungal resistance in humans, animals, and the environment is an emerging problem. Among the different fungal species that can develop resistance, Candida tropicalis is ubiquitous and causes infections in animals and humans. In Asia and some Latin American countries, C. tropicalis is among the most common species related to candidemia, and mortality rates are usually above 40%. Fluconazole resistance is especially reported in Asian countries and clonal spread in humans and the environment has ...

Soft-sediment deformation structures (SSDS) represent synsedimentary structures that can be formed under different tectonic regimes and are considered of great importance for studies associated with the paleoseismic activity. SSDS represent depositional heterogeneities and play an important role in fluid flow, thus influencing hydrocarbon or groundwater reservoirs. This paper describes the SSDS in Aptian lacustrine finely laminated limestones of Crato Formation, the post-rift sequence of Araripe ...

Malignant mesotheliomas are rare types of cancers that affect the mesothelial surfaces, usually the pleura and peritoneum. They are associated with asbestos exposure, but due to a latency period of more than 30 years and difficult diagnosis, most cases are not detected until they reach advanced stages. Treatment options for this tumor type are very limited and survival ranges from 12 to 36 months. This review discusses the molecular physiopathology, current diagnosis, and latest therapeutic options ...

Increasing the Nb2O5 content decreased the glass transition and softening temperatures. Thermal stability increased with Nb2O5 addition and it was higher for glasses based on the composition having the highest SiO2 content. The thermal expansion coefficient tended to increase with the Nb2O5 amount. Zinc borate and zinc niobate ...
