This work studied the ultrasound technology as an alternative to enhance the reaction of sucrose inversion. To achieve it, the effect of ultrasound processing was evaluated in three situations: the reaction (invertase acting on substrate under ultrasound processing), the isolated substrate (sucrose) and the isolated enzyme (invertase). Ultrasound (25 kHz, 22 W/L) processing was conducted under different conditions of pH and temperature. The ultrasound assisted reaction was accelerated in relation to ...

Jirau hydropower plant (Jirau HPP) is one of the largest scale run-of-river hydro-projects in the Madeira River, Brazilian Amazon. This project has attracted strong national and international attention, especially with respect to environmental issues, because the Madeira River supports a diverse fish species. Many of these are migratory species and impact the reproductive stocks of the fishes that live in the Amazon River. Numerical simulations to predict fish eggs and larvae drift have been scarce ...

The objective of this study was to develop simple mathematical models for the prediction of the total anthocyanin content of fruits and vegetables, using colorimetry. Phenolic extracts of 13 species of fruits and vegetables were produced using 70% acidified ethanol and 70% ethanol. The quantification of the total anthocyanins of the extracts was performed by the spectrophotometric method, and the color characterization was done through the tristimulus colorimeter. The correlation between the L* ...

This study was aimed at optimizing the ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) of phenolic compounds from jussara and blueberry fruits using the response surface methodology (RSM). UAE was found to be more efficient to extract phenolic compounds from both fruits than the conventional extraction. The optimum extraction conditions for the jussara fruits were: extraction time between 30 and 62 min for total anthocyanins and total phenolics, fruit:solvent ratio of 10% and 6% (w/v) for total anthocyanins and ...

Feeding livestock with cover crops can improve the efficiency and sustainability of integrated crop–livestock systems under no-till. However, no-till systems are based on permanent soil cover by organic material, so grazing livestock can compete for soil cover. Hence, managing stocking rates during the grazing period of the cultivated forage species is a key factor to assure enough herbage mass for maintaining long-term sustainable no-till systems. In this context, the objective of this study was ...

ABSTRACT Leaf rust (Puccinia triticina) is one of the most common diseases in wheat crops. For effective control of such disease, leaf application of mixtures of triazole and strobilurin fungicides is recommended. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of different fungicide formulations and numbers of applications in controlling wheat leaf rust in the cultivar TBIO Pioneiro 2010. Experimental design was completely randomized, 2x2 factorial arrangement, consisting of two fungicide formulations ...

The Araripe Basin has been the subject of several publications in the recent years, notably with respect to the rich paleontological collection of Brejo Santo, Crato and Romualdo Formations. However, papers detailing stratigraphic aspects of Brejo Santo Formation are scarce. The formation (Mesozoic era - Dom João Stage) is represented by a predominantly pelithic succession (up to 450 m thick) outcropping in eastern portion of the basin. The Brejo Santo Formation unconformably overlies the Cariri Formation, ...

Ayahuasca is a hallucinogenic beverage produced from the decoction of Banisteriopsis caapi (Bc) and Psychotria viridis (Pv), β-carboline- and N,N-dimethyltryptamine(DMT)-containing plants, respectively. Accumulating evidence suggests that ayahuasca may have therapeutic effects on ethanol abuse. It is not known, however, whether its effects are dependent on the presence of DMT or if non-DMT-containing components would have therapeutic effects. The aim of the present study was to investigate the rewarding ...

Layered double hydroxide (LDH) are promising drug delivery systems (DDS) for the transport of biologically active substances, with special attention to those with poor aqueous solubility. Praziquantel (PZQ) is an anthelmintic BCS class II drug, presenting low solubility and high permeability. Due to these qualities, its absorption becomes compromised, generating the need for relatively high doses. In this context, the synthesis and characterization of calcium and aluminum LDH (CaAl-LDH) was performed, ...
