1. Impact of Air Pollutant on Heart Rate Variability in Healthy Young Adults
Abstract Background: Air pollution and sex independently affect cardiac autonomic control, which can be assessed by heart rate variability (HRV). The research hypothesis is that individuals exposed to low concentrations of pollution have higher cardiac autonomic modulation compared to those exposed to high concentrations and that women have better cardiac a

2. Nitrogen Oxides Levels in the Atmosphere of Different Brazilian Urban Centers, by Passive Sampling
Urban air pollution is still an emerging environmental problem, it causes damage to health and is difficult to be controlled in urban centers. The population of large metropolises is often exposed to concentrations of nitrogen oxides (NOx), mainly due to vehicle emissions. Epidemiological studies claim that exposure to these oxides is strongly correlated wit

3. FATORES DE EMISSÃO E DE ENRIQUECIMENTO DA CROSTA PARA ELEMENTOS TRAÇO (MP2,5) EMITIDOS PELA FROTA VEICULAR NA REGIÃO METROPOLITANA DE SÃO PAULO, BRASIL
Air pollution can cause several negative impacts on health and the environment. In large urban centers, this pollution is directly related to anthropogenic activities, mainly activities in the transportation sector. This study analyzed data on black carbon, fine particulate material (PM2.5) and its main trace elements from automotive vehicles (S, P, K, V, Cr

4. Chromatographic Profiles of Ethyl Acetate Extracts Produced by Bacillus sp. Collected from the Mangroves in the Brazilian Northeast
The genus Bacillus is Gram-positive, anaerobic or aerobic facultative bacteria, often described to be associated with the mangrove rhizosphere. Secondary products of their metabolism, coming from places affected by pollution and environmental stresses, such as mangroves, have been attracting interest from the biotechnological point of view. In view of this s

5. MICROPLÁSTICOS: USO NA INDÚSTRIA COSMÉTICA E IMPACTOS NO AMBIENTE AQUÁTICO
Environmental pollution from plastics and microplastics is currently one of the most relevant issues of the scientific community and cosmetic industry. In particular, microplastics are referred to as small pieces of plastic less than five millimeters (<5mm) and do not dissolve in water, can be harmful to the ocean and aquatic life. Microplastics can be desig

6. A Low-Cost Smart Surveillance System Applied to Vehicle License Plate Tracking
Abstract The growth of urban centers has a major impact on our lives and on our society, one of which is the increase in the vehicle fleet, which in turns is a major offender in increasing road congestion, pollution, accidents, theft of vehicles, among others. With a focus on minimizing problems with theft of vehicles in an urban environment this paper propo

8. Biochar and swine wastewater: Effects on soil fertility of different textures and corn nutrition
ABSTRACT The use of organic waste in agriculture has stimulated the search for technologies that reduce environmental pollution. Among the residues are the biochar and swine wastewater (SW), which incorrectly disposed cause negative impacts, however, when combined, they can enhance agricultural production, due to the synergism between both. In this sense, th

9. Comparison of minimal-flow sevoflurane versus desflurane anesthesia: randomized clinical trial
Abstract Background and objectives: Minimal-flow anesthesia provides various advantages, such as reduced environmental pollution, proper humidification and warming of anesthetic gases, and reduced costs. The aim of this study was to compare the cost-effectiveness of minimal-flow sevoflurane and desflurane anesthesia and their effects on hemodynamics, postop

11. Reproductive phenology of aquatic macrophytes in the Cerrado-Pantanal ecotone
ABSTRACT Studies of plant phenology have been performed predominantly with terrestrial species and rarely so with aquatic communities. Such plants are fundamental for the aquatic ecosystems, representing a valuable source of resources when they are scarce in terrestrial environments for the fauna. Studies of phenology help to understand the reproduction rhyt

12. Spatial Distribution and Pollution Assessment of Trace Elements Pb, Cu, Ni, Fe and As in the Surficial Water of Staring Bay, Indonesia
Staring Bay has long been used by the local community for fisheries and fishing activities; however, the rapid population growth and industrial activities around the bay in recent years are predicted to contribute significantly to the increase of waste entering the bay. This particular study was aimed to provide baseline levels of trace elements Pb, Cu, Ni,
