Abstract Pseudomonas aeruginosa UFPEDA 614 produced a rhamnolipid biosurfactant when grown on sugarcane bagasse impregnated with a solution containing glycerol. Biosurfactant levels reached 40 g of rhamnolipid per kilogram of dry initial substrate after 12 days. On the basis of the volume of liquid used, the biosurfactant levels were similar to those obtained in submerged liquid culture of a medium identical to the impregnating solution. The properties of the biosurfactant were very similar to those ...

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Atherosclerotic disease is the leading cause of death in Brazil. It is a complex disease and its prevention involves identification and control of risk factors. Moderately increased plasma homocysteine concentration (hyperhomocysteinemia) has been considered to be a risk factor for several vascular diseases. Mutations in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) enzyme, which is involved in homocysteine metabolism, have been investigated as potential vascular disease risk ...

In this paper we address the automatic summarization task. Recent research works on extractive-summary generation employ some heuristics, but few works indicate how to select the relevant features. We will present a summarization procedure based on the application of trainable Machine Learning algorithms which employs a set of features extracted directly from the original text. These features are of two kinds: statistical - based on the frequency of some elements in the text; and linguistic - extracted ...

This work proposes a new extractive text-summarization algorithm based on the importance of the topics contained in a document. The basic ideas of the proposed algorithm are as follows. At first the document is partitioned by using the TextTiling algorithm, which identifies topics (coherent segments of text) based on the TF-IDF metric. Then for each topic the algorithm computes a measure of its relative relevance in the document. This measure is computed by using the notion of TF-ISF (Term Frequency - ...

Viral infections have haunted humankind since times immemorial. Overpopulation, globalization, and extensive deforestation have created an ideal environment for a viral spread with unknown and multiple shedding routes. Many viruses can infect the male reproductive tract, with potential adverse consequences to male reproductive health, including infertility and cancer. Moreover, some genital tract viral infections can be sexually transmitted, potentially impacting the resulting offspring's health. ...

Manganese (Mn) is essential for animal development and homeostasis. However, anthropogenic activities increase the concentration of Mn in the environment and lead to increased risk of exposure to high doses of the metal. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of high doses of Mn on the male reproductive system of swiss mice. The 22-day old mice were randomly sorted into four groups and exposed to 0 (control), 15, 30 and 60 mg of MnCl2/kg/day, via daily gavages for 45 days. After the exposure, ...

Co-, Ni-, and Mn-doped BiFeO3 (BFO) ceramics were synthesized herein through a solid-state reaction. All doped BFO samples exhibit visible-light response, and the Co- and Ni-doped BFO samples present enhanced ferromagnetic order at room temperature. All doped samples show secondary phases in minor quantities. Optical spectra reveal two absorptions bands, indicating multiple electron transitions for BFO and its secondary phases. M − H hysteresis loops suggest enhanced ferromagnetism in the Co- and Ni- ...
