Today the knowledge of the ageing status of an electrical installation and its components is of fundamental interest for correctly inferring on the network economics. In Brazil, covered conductors must withstand an ageing test combining the stresses of heat, voltage to ground and corona. The observed failures indicate the necessity of complementary tests. In this paper Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), electron spin resonance (ESR), thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning ...

Octopus insularis is the most important octopus commercially fished in northeastern Brazil. Its reproductive dynamics were studied in order to contribute to the biological basis for its management along Rio do Fogo, a small community in a partially protected marine area in northeastern Brazil. Overall, 1108 specimens were caught by the free diving fishery and experimental pot fishery, down to 15 m depths between November 2009 and September 2011. These specimens had their mantle length (ML) and body ...

Abstract Background Li-Fraumeni (LFS) and Li-Fraumeni-like (LFL) syndromes are associated to germline TP53 mutations, and are characterized by the development of central nervous system tumors, sarcomas, adrenocortical carcinomas, and other early-onset tumors. Due to the high frequency of breast cancer in LFS/LFL families, these syndromes clinically overlap with hereditary breast cancer (HBC). Germline point mutations in BRCA1 , BRCA2 , and TP53 genes are associated with high risk of breast cancer. Large ...

The growing demand of consumers for synthetic chemical-free foods has increased the search for natural preservatives such as bacteriocins and bacteriocin-like inhibitory substances (BLIS) to give them adequate microbiological safety, sensory characteristics, and shelf life. In this study, the antimicrobial activity of BLIS produced by Pediococcus pentosaceus ATCC 43200 was compared with that of nisin. Lactobacillus sakei ATCC 15521, Listeria seeligeri NCTC 11289, Enterococcus En2052 and En2865, and ...

The identification and phylogenetic relationships of potato cyst nematodes (PCN) were studied to assess the potential value of geographical distribution information for integrated pest management of potato production in Portugal. This research focused on PCN species, Globodera pallida and Globodera rostochiensis . From 2013 until 2019, 748 soil samples from the rhizosphere of different potato cultivars were surveyed in the Portuguese mainland to detect and identify both species and track their location. ...

Iodine incorporation into thyroglobulin is dependent on the activities of both thyroperoxidase (TPO) and thyroid dual oxidase 2 (DuOx2). Although TPO expression is decreased in some thyroid nodular lesions, DuOx1 and 2 mRNA expressions are maintained, but DuOx H2O2-generating activity has never been evaluated in such tumors. Our goal was to determine DuOx activity in hypofunctioning lesions of the thyroid. We evaluated H2O2 generation by DuOx in 12 paranodular to cold nodule samples, 17 non-toxic ...

In Brief Objective: To study the time, intensity of symptoms, hormonal profile, and related morbidity of climacteric in women with untreated isolated growth hormone (GH) deficiency (IGHD). Design: Women belonging to a large Brazilian kindred with IGHD due to a homozygous mutation in the GH-releasing hormone receptor gene were studied. None of them had ever received GH replacement therapy. A two-step protocol was performed. In the first case-control experiment, aimed to determine the age at climacteric, ...

Summary Chronic inflammation has been identified as an important component of metabolic syndrome ( M et S ). Inhibition of the inflammatory mediator signals is a promising strategy against insulin resistance, atherosclerosis and other problems associated with M et S . Regular exercise decreases the components associated with M et S , including inflammatory cytokines. However, the relationship between an acute resistance training ( RT ) session, cytokine levels and M et S is unclear. Therefore, the aim was to ...

CD69 is an early marker of lymphoid cell activation. The authors report on an up‐regulation of CD69 in splenic B and T cells of C57Bl/6 mice after administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or microbial immunosuppressive/mitogenic (ISM) proteins produced by C. albicans (p43) and African Swine Fever Virus (p36). This up‐regulation of CD69 was observed 6 and 24 h after mitogenic treatments. The same pattern of increased CD69 expression was observed in the lymph nodes of mice treated with p43 or LPS, whereas ...

The renin-angiotensin (Ang) system (RAS) is a complex hormonal system present locally in several tissues such as cardiovascular organs. RAS deregulation through overactivation of the classical arm [Ang-converting enzyme (ACE)/Ang-II/Ang type 1 receptor (AT1R)] has been linked to the development of cardiovascular diseases and activation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathways. The ER stress is a condition that, if unresolved, might lead to heart failure, atherosclerosis, hypertension, and endothelial ...

Metallic materials undergo many metallurgical changes when subjected to welding thermal cycles, and these changes have a considerable influence on the thermo-mechanical properties of welded structures. One method for evaluating the welding thermal cycle variables, while still in the project phase, would be simulation using computational methods. This paper presents an evaluation of the temperature field and residual stresses in a multipass weld of API 5L X80 steel, which is extensively used in oil ...

Immunological methods to detect SARS-CoV-2 seroconversion in humans are important to track COVID-19 cases and the humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 infections and immunization to future vaccines. The aim of this work was to develop a simple chromogenic magnetic bead-based immunoassay which allows rapid, inexpensive, and quantitative detection of human antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in serum, plasma, or blood. Recombinant 6xHis-tagged SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid protein was mobilized on the surface of Ni2+ ...

Recent studies from temperate lakes indicate that eutrophic systems tend to emit less carbon dioxide (CO2) and bury more organic carbon (OC) than oligotrophic ones, rendering them CO2 sinks in some cases. However, the scarcity of data from tropical systems is critical for a complete understanding of the interplay between eutrophication and aquatic carbon (C) fluxes in warm waters. We test the hypothesis that a warm eutrophic system is a source of both CO2 and CH4 to the atmosphere, and that atmospheric ...
