1. EFFECT OF MERCURY EXPOSURE ON U1-70 KDA PROTEIN EXPRESSION IN EMBRYOS OF BLACK BEAN (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Exposure to heavy metals has been documented to induce changes in the expression of plant proteins. Phaseolus vulgaris L., represents a great source of nutrition for millions of people, and is the second most important legume crop. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of Hg stress on germination rate and identify the gene expression profiling o

2. Mercury Concentration in Liver Tissues of South American Fur Seals (Arctocephalus australis) from Southwestern Atlantic Ocean
Mercury (Hg) contamination of oceans is rapidly increasing, however Hg bioaccumulation in pinnipeds has been understudied. Here, we report for the first time Hg concentration in liver tissues of South American fur seals (Arctocephalus australis) in South and Southeast Brazil. Hg concentration was determined in twenty-five fur seals’ specimens found strande

3. Characterization of Commercially Available Turmeric for Use in Pharmaceutical Products and Food Supplements
We addressed some physicochemical and biological differences in commercial turmeric, acquired from both handling pharmacies and stores selling natural products for quality assessment. For this, it was determined the melting point, antioxidant activity by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH), antimicrobial activity via the agar disk-diffusion assay,

4. Mercury in muscle and liver of Plagioscion squamosissimus (Acanthuriformes: Sciaenidae) from the Machado River, Brazilian Amazon
RESUMO O Rio Machado é o principal afluente do Rio Madeira no estado de Rondônia, uma região impactada por desmatamento, pecuária, desenvolvimento urbano, mineração de ouro e efluentes urbanos e industriais, que provavelmente contribuem para a introdução de mercúrio (Hg) no sistema aquático. Nosso objetivo foi determinar as concentrações de Hg to

5. Mercury bioaccumulation, genotoxic and biochemical biomarkers reveal the health status of yellow-spotted Amazon River turtles (Podocnemis unifilis) in an environmental protection area in the Amazon
RESUMO Quelônios são considerados bons bioindicadores da qualidade ambiental. A avaliação do estado de saúde de populações de quelônios na Amazônia também é importante porque estes animais são tradicionalmente consumidos em grandes quantidades em comunidades ribeirinhas e em reservas de uso sustentável. O presente estudo avaliou a saúde de Podo

7. Electrochemical Determination of Trifluralin Herbicide Using Silver Solid Amalgam Electrode: Application in Fresh Food Samples
This paper reports the use of polished silver solid amalgam electrode (p-AgSAE) allied to square wave voltammetry (SWV) in the development of a simple, sensitive, fast and green electroanalytical methodology for the trifluralin herbicide determination in fresh food samples. The experimental (supporting electrolyte and potential and time accumulation) and vol

8. Microbial activity and studies on excavated megalithic micaceous potsherds from Peninsular India
Abstract The abundantly available mica flakes were added in raw materials to manufacture pottery in Central Peninsular India during the early Iron Age (700-300 BCE) for storage and glittering. The micaceous potsherds from the excavated megalithic site of Nagpur were studied for their composition, manufacturing techniques, microstructural features, microbial

9. EFEITO DO HG2+ E DOS ÍONS CU2+, FE2+, NI2+, SN2+ E ZN2+ NA ESTABILIDADE DE NANOPARTÍCULAS DE PRATA: UMA PRÁTICA INTERDISCIPLINAR DE NANOTECNOLOGIA EXPERIMENTAL
The growing predominance of nanoscience and nanotechnology makes it increasingly important that these topics become an integral part of all scientific education. For this reason, in the present work, an interdisciplinary experiment of nanotechnology is introduced. As silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are the most applied nanomaterial in consumer products, the cur

10. Determining Mercury in Sediment Samples by Extraction Using a Novel-Chelating Reagent Dithiothreitol (DTT) Followed by Cold Vapor Atomic Fluorescence Spectrometry (CV-AFS)
A new analytical protocol has been developed for the determination of mercury in surface sediments using dithiothreitol (DTT) as a new chelating reagent for the extraction. This protocol requires a small sample mass (250 mg), 4.0 mL of a 0.1 M (pH = 9.0) aqueous DTT solution, and sonication for 30 min, followed by cold vapor atomic fluorescence spectrometry

11. An Electrochemiluminescence Biosensor for the Determination of Mercury Ion via Dual-Amplification Strategy
A novel dual-signal amplificatory electrochemiluminescence (ECL) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) biosensor was designed for the determination of Hg2+. One amplification unit was gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) modified on a glassy carbon electrode, and the other was single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) (with amino at the 3’ terminal and thiol at the 5’ terminal) labeled w

12. Electroanalytical Method for Determination of Trace Metals in Struvite Using Electrochemically Treated Screen-Printed Gold Electrodes
We present an electroanalytical method using square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry on electrochemically-treated screen-printed gold electrodes to the simultaneous determination of lead(II), copper(II) and mercury(II) in struvite (natural fertilizer produced from urine). Electrochemical treatment via cyclic voltammetry of the working electrodes increased s
