2. Collector mixtures and their synergistic effect on quartz floatability
Abstract Sinergy is the interaction of two or more agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects. Etherdiamine yields superior results for quartz floatability in a Hallimond tube and higher selectivity in the reverse bench scale cationic flotation of an iron ore, when compared to ethermonoamine. Blending these collectors

3. FGF23 levels as a marker of physical performance and falls in community-dwelling very old individuals
ABSTRACT Objective: The fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has been related to biological aging, but data in elderly individuals are scant. We determined the profile of serum FGF23 levels in a population of very-old individuals and studied their correlations with parameters of bone metabolism and health markers, as functional performance. Materials and me

6. Study of soils used with subgrade and sub-ballast in Brazilian railways
Abstract Brazil has an extremely limited railroad network compared to other developed and developing countries. There are projects to expand this mesh. Knowing that the cost of implementing a railroad is high, research for solutions that allow cost reduction is of great importance. But the parameters of the materials used in the subgrade and sub-ballast laye

8. Assessment of the diagnostic performance of two new tools versus routine screening instruments for bipolar disorder: a meta-analysis
Objective: The present meta-analysis was conducted to determine the diagnostic accuracy of the bipolarity index (BI) and Rapid Mode Screener (RMS) as compared with the Bipolar Spectrum Diagnostic Scale (BSDS), the Hypomania Checklist (HCL-32), and the Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ) in people with bipolar disorder (BD). Methods: We systematically searched

9. SALICILATOS COMO INIBIDORES DO PROCESSO OXIDATIVO MEDIADO POR COBRE E FERRO NO BIODIESEL B100
Biodiesel is a renewable fuel produced from vegetable oils and animal fats transesterification. However, due to its chemical characteristics, it is susceptible to oxidation causing losses to its manufacturers and users. In this work a series of salicylates were synthesized and employed as secondary antioxidants in biodiesel B100. The accelerated oxidation te
