1. In vivo and in vitro Volatile Constituents of the Flowers of Xylopia aromatica by HS-SPME/GC-MS
Xylopia aromatica (Lam.) Mart. (Annonaceae) is a typical species from the Brazilian cerrado that presents medicinal properties. The plant is distinguished by its large white flowers which produce a pleasant fragrance. X. aromatica is characterized by a wide range of medicinal application. These characteristics have motivated us to investigate the flowers vol

2. MODELING AND SIMULATION OF A VACUUM MEMBRANE DISTILLATION PLANT COUPLED WITH SOLAR ENERGY AND USING HELICAL HOLLOW FIBERS
Abstract This paper investigates the effect of operating conditions such as coil pitch, fiber diameter, distance between fiber and absorber internal wall and absorber diameter for a vacuum membrane installation coupled with solar energy and using helically coiled fiber to maximize the permeate flow rate. The model is based on a system of equations composed o

3. Characterization of Breast Meat Collected from Spent Lohmann Brown Layers in Comparison to Commercial Ross Broilers
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to compare characteristics and properties of breast meat from spent Lohmann Brown layers (SP, 90 weeks old, n = 24) and those of commercial broilers (BR, 6 weeks old, n = 24). The breasts of both SP and BR were collected from a local processing plant, vacuum-packed in a plastic bag, and stored at -18ºC until further

4. Growth promotion of Guinea grass by diazotrophic bacteria1
RESUMO A espécie Panicum maximum cv. Mombaça é uma forrageira adaptada às diversas condições edafoclimáticas encontradas no Brasil; no entanto, necessita de altas doses de fertilizantes nitrogenados para garantir altas produtividades. Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito da inoculação com estirpes de bactérias diazotróficas associativas nas característi

5. Evaluation of the Projectile's loss of Energy in Polyester Composite Reinforced with Fique Fiber and Fabric
Firearms threat has always been a matter of personal concern, especially to soldiers in armed conflicts as well as police officers and civilians involved with public security. A multilayered armor system (MAS) is intended to personal protection against high kinetic energy ammunition, such as that used in rifles. MAS layers are normally composed of a front ce

6. Genetic diversity and nonparametric statistics to identify possible ISSR marker association with fiber quality of pineapple
Abstract: Due to the increasing search for renewable resources, plant fibers have become an alternative when creating new products. Studies demonstrate the potential use of pineapple fibers in composites. The objective of this work was to evaluate the genetic diversity and verify any association between ISSR (Inter Simple Sequence Repeats) bands and quality

8. Guaruman: a Natural Amazonian Fiber with Potential for Polymer Composite Reinforcement
The Amazonian region of South America is known for its diversified number of plants from which food, medicine, wood and fibers have, since long time, been produced by local natives. A typical example is the guarumã (“guaruman”as suggested English spelling) scientifically identified as Ischinosiphon koem, an abundant plant found in the low lands alongsid

9. Influence of section and moisture content on the tensile strength parallel to fibers of bamboo culms woody material
RESUMO O bambu é uma planta abundante em regiões tropicais, a qual pode ser utilizada como material estrutural não convencional; contudo, há alta variabilidade em suas propriedades mecânicas. Objetivou-se verificar a influência do teor de umidade e das seções (com e sem nó) na resistência à tração paralela a fibras dos colmos de três espécies

10. Genetic gains in agronomic and technological traits of elite cotton genotypes
ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to estimate the predicted genetic gains with the simultaneous selection of agronomic and technological traits from elite cotton lines using selection indexes. Data from the evaluation of 36 elite lines were evaluated in three trials located in Apodi-RN in 2013 and 2014 and Santa Helena, GO, Brazil in 2013, in a randomi

11. Morpho-anatomy of native species used as substitute of quina (Cinchona spp.) in Brazilian traditional medicine: Esenbeckia febrifuga
ABSTRACT Esenbeckia febrifuga (A.St.-Hil.) A. Juss. ex Mart., Rutaceae, is known by several popular names including quina-do-mato. This name is a reference to the use of its bark as febrifuge and in the past was employed as a substitute of Cinchona sp. for treatment of malaria symptoms. This confusion may have been reinforced by the fact that the bark of the

12. Peculiar anatomical traits, high durability, and potential ornamental use of Cyclanthaceae as fresh foliage
ABSTRACT Wild plant species with potential for use as ornamental green foliage are often reported. Nevertheless, there are few studies evaluating morphological and anatomical aspects associated with this use. Preliminary trials suggest that the species of Sphaeradenia (Sander ex Mast.) Harling, a Cyclantaceae that occurs from Costa Rica to Peru, is suitable
