1. Ecophysiology, genotoxicity, histopathology, and gene responses of naphthalene injected Colossoma macropomum (Cuvier, 1818) exposed to hypoxia
Abstract The present study aimed to evaluate the biological responses of Colossoma macropomum to naphthalene injection and subsequent hypoxia exposure, emphasizing the expression of the tumor suppressor gene tp53. Tambaquis were intraperitoneally injected with naphthalene (50 mg/kg) and, after 96 hours, the fish were transferred to respirometry chambers and,

2. Temperature and circadian effects on metabolic rate of South American echimyid rodents, Trinomys setosus and Clyomys bishopi (Rodentia: Echimyidae)
ABSTRACT Basal metabolic rate (BMR) represents the lowest level of metabolic activity capable to sustain homeostasis in an endotherm and is an important tool to compare metabolic rates of different species. Echimyidae is the most specious family within caviomorph rodents, however, little is known about the biology of its species, such as Trinomys setosus (De

3. Water temperature, body mass and fasting heat production of pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus)
ABSTRACT Knowledge on fasting heat production (HEf) of fish is key to develop bioenergetics models thus improving feeding management of farmed species. The core of knowledge on HEf of farmed, neotropical fish is scarce. This study assessed the effect of body mass and water temperature on standard metabolism and fasting heat production of pacu, Piaractus meso

4. Surgical risk tests related to cardiopulmonary postoperative complications: comparison between upper abdominal and thoracic surgery
PURPOSE: To investigate if tests used in the preoperative period of upper abdominal or thoracic surgeries are able to differentiate the patients that presented cardiopulmonary postoperative complications. METHODS: Seventy eight patients, 30 submitted to upper abdominal surgery and 48 to thoracic surgery were evaluated. Spirometry, respirometry, manovacuometr

5. Padrões bioenergéticos das aranhas de teia: considerações sobre a unidade e a diversidade do fenômeno / Patterns of bioenergetic of web spiders: considerations about the unity and diversity of the phenomenon
The physiological mechanisms are often applied to explain important evolutionary adaptations (e.g. endothermy) and ecology (e.g. physiological limitations to occupy a particular microhabitat) of vertebrates. Despite the fact that it improves vertebrates ecological and evolutionary hypotheses with possible processes and mechanisms, it is scarcely used to unde

6. The influence of soil and landfill leachate microorganisms in the degradation of PVC/PCL films cast from DMF
While the use of plastics continues to increase in our daily lives in a growing range products, these materials are very persistent in the environment. The blending of aliphatic polyesters with other thermoplastic polymers is a profitable way of producing materials with changed physical properties and biodegradability, which can facilitate microbial adhesion

7. Habitat, hábito e morfologia cardíaca: influência destes fatores sobre as respostas cardiorrespiratórias à hipóxia e alterações térmicas em espécies de peixes ecologicamente distintas
Os ambientes aquáticos estão sujeitos a grandes variações em suas propriedades físicoquímicas as quais pode comprometer a sobrevivência dos animais que habitam essas águas, especialmente os peixes, os quais exibem comportamento adaptativo, respostas fisiológicas, bioquímicas e genéticas para enfrentar tais mudanças. O objetivo do presente estudo

8. Nitrificação e desnitrificação simultânea em reator com biomassa em suspensão e fluxo contínuo de esgoto / Simultaneous nitrification and denitrification in reactor with biomass in suspension and continuous flow of sewage
It was developed in Europe the process known as Simultaneous Nitrification and Denitrification (SND) in activated sludge that operates with a SRT, high enough for nitrification to occur, even with low concentration of dissolved oxygen in the aeration tanks. Such situation in the tanks is possible to maintain anoxic conditions inside the flocs and to have the

9. Evaluating the effect of soil flushing with surfactant on the biodegradation of soil contaminated by diesel oil. / Avaliação do efeito da lavagem com surfactante na biodegradação de um solo contaminado por óleo diesel.
Diesel fuel is one of the most petroleum derivates consumed in Brazil and responsible with large numbers of contaminated areas. While there are consecrated techniques for the removal of diesel oil-free phases, vapor and dissolved, the solutions to remove the residual phase still need greater efficiency and/or lower cost. This work shows the results of a labo

10. Biodegradation of blend films PVA/PVC, PVA/PCL in soil and soil with landfill leachate
This study investigated the biodegradation of blends films of poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(vinyl chloride) (PVA/PVC) and poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(caprolactone) (PVA/PCL) blends films prepared with dimethylformamide under a variety of conditions by respirometry, spectrophotometry (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and contact angle. The films were buried

11. Avaliação da biodegradabilidade de petróleo utilizando microrganismos isolados do estuário do Rio Potengi (RN)
A atividade petrolífera do RN constitui uma ameaça permanente aos ecossistemas costeiros, principalmente os manguezais, com a possibilidade de derramamentos de óleo. Neste contexto, o objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar o potencial de resistência do ambiente de manguezal a um possível derramamento. Foram selecionados e isolados microrganismos degradadores

12. Desempenho de um reator para compostagem descentralizada de lixo orgânico domiciliar e grau de maturação do composto / Performance of a reactor for decentralized composting of organic waste at home and degree of maturation of the compound
Nas últimas décadas, a disposição final de lixo tornou-se um sério problema a ser enfrentado por todos os países, em função da escassez crescente de terrenos disponíveis para aterros sanitários e distância cada vez maior dos centros geradores e a disposição final, assim como do aumento substancial da geração per capita. A acumulação de lixo
