Several epidemiological studies have linked particulate matter exposure to numerous adverse health effects on the respiratory, cardiovascular, and reproductive systems (Braga et al., 1999; ; ; ). More recently, ambient levels of black carbon were associated to impaired cognitive function in children (), suggesting that the central nervous system (CNS) may be a target of air pollutants. The present study was conducted to (a) determine whether chronic residual oil fly ash (ROFA) exposure promotes behavioral changes ...

The insecticidal Cry11Aa and Cyt1Aa proteins are produced by Bacillus thuringiensis as crystal inclusions. They work synergistically inducing high toxicity against mosquito larvae. It was proposed that these crystal inclusions are rapidly solubilized and activated in the gut lumen, followed by pore formation in midgut cells killing the larvae. In addition, Cyt1Aa functions as a Cry11Aa binding receptor, inducing Cry11Aa oligomerization and membrane insertion. Here, we used fluorescent labeled crystals, ...

The present work assessed some engineering approaches, such as the addition of the redox mediator anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonate (AQDS) (50 and 100 μM), microaeration (1 mL air min−1), and nitrate (100−400 mg L−1), for enhancing the biotransformation of the antibiotics sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and trimethoprim (TMP) (200 μg L−1 each) in anaerobic reactors operated at a short hydraulic retention time (7.4 h). Initially, very low removal efficiencies (REs) of SMX and TMP were obtained under anaerobic conditions (∼ ...

Early detection of breast cancer increases the chances of cure, but the reliable identification of impalpable lesions is still a challenge. In spite of the advances in breast cancer detection, the molecular basis of impalpable lesions and the corresponding circulating biomarkers are not well understood. Impalpable lesions, classified by radiologists according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System in the categories 3 and 4, can be either benign or malignant (slow growing or aggressive). ...

To investigate the prevalence of Campylobacter and Salmonella in poultry carcasses in state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 60 samples from 6 slaughterhouses were collected over a period of 6 months. A total of 82 Campylobacter isolates were obtained from twenty seven (45%) positive chicken carcasses, including 44 isolates (53.66%) of Campylobacter jejuni and 38 (46.34%) of Campylobacter coli. The identification of all strains was confirmed by PCR. Salmonella was isolated from 4 (6.67%) carcasses by conventional ...

We are interested in studying the ubiquitin (UBI) gene expression during different stress and growth conditions in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans. Here, we report the cloning of a cDNA clone that corresponds to a gene, ubi1, that encodes a carboxyl extension protein from A. nidulans. This cDNA corresponds to a gene that encodes a protein that showed high homology to other polyubiquitin and CEP-80 genes at the N- and C-terminus, respectively. We characterize the mRNA expression of the ...

Epidemiological studies have demonstrated the adverse effects of particulate matter (PM) inhalation on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. It has been reported that air pollution may affect the central nervous system and decrease cognitive function. In rats, residual oil fly ash (ROFA) instillation causes decreased motor activity and increased lipid peroxidation in the striatum and the cerebellum. Our objective was to determine whether chronic instillation of particles induces changes in learning ...

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is usually taught in universities through theoretical lectures and simulations on mannequins with low retention of knowledge and skills. New teaching methodologies have been used to improve the learning, placing the student at the center of the process. Likewise, the outside community knows next to nothing about cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Patients who have an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest will die if the effective maneuvers are not promptly done. Learning by teaching ...
