14. Evaluation of the injuries caused by Pachycoris torridus (Scopoli, 1772) (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae) in Jatropha curcas (Linnaeus) (Euphorbiaceae)
ABSTRACT The Jatropha curcas species is a perennial plant and easy to manage, being cultivated in many countries because of its high content in oil and the lowest cost of production. This study had as objective to evaluate the injuries caused by the Pachycoris torridus in J. curcas seedlings. Thirty-four days after the planting, 30 J. curcas seedlings were c

15. Thermal Infrared Enthalpimetry in Paper Microzone Plates for Green and High Throughput Determination of Wine Acidities
The use of paper devices in chemical analysis has been increased due to their low cost, high surface area, portability, and biodegradability. A novel use of paper devices is proposed using thermal infrared enthalpimetry (TIE) for a rapid, green, and high throughput determination of wine acidities. The determination of total, fixed, and volatile acidities in

16. CHEMICAL REGENERATION OF BONE CHAR ASSOCIATED WITH A CONTINUOUS SYSTEM FOR DEFLUORIDATION OF WATER
Abstract Sources of fluoride contaminated water are found around the world and their treatment is required before human consumption. This paper contributes to advances in the use of bone-char as an adsorbent for fluoride, associating steps of chemical regeneration and fluoride adsorption in continuous systems, thereby making feasible the multiple use of the

17. Local treatment of colostomy prolapse with the MESH STRIP technique: A novel and highly efficient day hospital technique
OBJECTIVE: Stoma prolapse is an intussusception of the bowel through a mature stoma. It can be caused by increased intra-abdominal pressure, excessively mobile bowel mesentery and/or a large opening in the abdominal wall at the time of stoma formation. It occurs predominantly in loop stomas, and correction methods include conservative modalities, such as lo

18. Produção de biossurfactantes: manoproteínas intracelulares e soforolipídios extracelulares por Saccharomyces cerevisiae
RESUMO Os biossurfactantes apresentam inúmeras aplicações ambientais e são produzidos por diversos microrganismos. Os provenientes da levedura Saccharomyces cerevisiae são pouco estudados para fins ambientais, sendo atóxicos. Objetivou-se o estudo da produção de biossurfactantes intra e extracelular por essa levedura, desenvolvida em meio de cultivo

21. RE-ESTERIFICATION OF MACAUBA ACID OIL USING GLYCEROL FOR ACIDITY REDUCTION AND BIODIESEL PRODUCTION
Abstract Biodiesel production using acid oils is an important alternative for biofuel cost reduction. However, it is a huge challenge for homogeneous transesterification, the main industrial route commonly used. This paper presents macauba oil with high acidity, 43.90 w/w%, as a potential raw material for biodiesel production. The acidity was reduced to 0.8

24. Leachate and vinasse used in a biological process combined with Fenton’s reaction: a green method for treatment of textile effluents
Abstract: The production of textiles generates a large amount of liquid residues considered to be environmentally problematic and which, if discarded without due treatment, may cause eutrophication of water sources, the intoxication of living beings, and the blocking of light penetration. Some methods have been applied for the treatment of this type of waste
