1. Consumption and Characterization of Forestry Biomass Used in Tobacco Cure Process
ABSTRACT The tobacco production requires annually a large volume of firewood used in the cure process of tobacco leaves, representing up to 10% of its production cost. An alternative is the use of agroindustry residues, such as sawdust or pellets. The objective of this study was to analyze the consumption and to characterize forestry biomass used in the toba

2. Urinary cotinine in tobacco farmers in Southern Brazil
ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To describe urinary cotinine levels in tobacco farmers. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2,570 tobacco farmers. All participants that reported green tobacco sickness in the week prior to the interview plus a subsample of 492 pesticide applicators were included. We collected urinary samples and information about sociodem

3. Alkali production in the mouth and its relationship with certain patient's characteristics
Objectives To assess the relationships among alkali production, diet, oral health behaviors, and oral hygiene. Methods Data from 52 subjects including demographics, diet, and oral hygiene scores were analyzed against the level of arginine and urea enzymes in plaque and saliva samples. An oral habit survey was completed that included: use of tobacco (TB)

4. Association between Lung Function and Vocal Affections Arising from Tobacco Consumption
Introduction Smoking is a major risk factor for numerous diseases; it is necessary to analyze the impact that the habit can have on vocal health. Objectives To determine the influence of smoking on changes in vocal production and lung vital capacity compared with nonsmokers. Methods This cross-sectional study compared smokers and nonsmokers (24

5. Indústria de tabaco, tabagismo e meio ambiente: as redes ante os riscos.
Neste artigo analisamos as estratégias da indústria de tabaco e os dilemas dos setores que criticam tais estratégias ou buscam alternativas ao tabagismo e à cultura do fumo. O trabalho discute, de um ponto de vista socioambiental, inter e transdisciplinar, a história da produção, da industrialização e do consumo dos derivados de tabaco, detendo-se e

6. SETOR DE SAÚDE PÚBLICA versus INDÚSTRIA DO TABACO: CONFRONTO IDEOLÓGICO ENTRE ORGANIZAÇÃO MUNDIAL DA SAÚDE E BRITISH AMERICAN TOBACCO/SOUZA CRUZ
This dissertation is part of a study that aims to understand the manifestations of ideological disagreement between the public health sector, which is represented by the World Health Organization (WHO) and by government allies (Pan American Health Organization - PAHO, Ministry of Health, and the Brazilian National Cancer Institute - INCA), and the tobacco in

7. Family Agriculture and Food Security: the importance of production for self-consumption / Agricultura Familiar e Segurança Alimentar: a importância da produção para o autoconsumo
The present dissertation approaches the theme of food security in the family agricultural context, having as its basis a research performed in the municipalities of Pelotas, São Lourenço do Sul and Canguçu. The focus of the study is centered upon the issue of self-consumption, which involves a myriad of practices adopted by families to ensure the full or

8. Revelações do imaginario : iconografia campineira do final do seculo XIX
Departing from a group of images and drawings produced by the Liberdades tobacco factory (Fábrica de Fumo Liberdade), placed in the city of Campinas in 1899, I examine the city urban imaginary at the end of the XIX century. Those groups of images make clear a pre determine intention, a visual discourse about Campinas at this period, but also implied through

9. Hydrogen Peroxide from the Oxidative Burst Is Neither Necessary Nor Sufficient for Hypersensitive Cell Death Induction, Phenylalanine Ammonia Lyase Stimulation, Salicylic Acid Accumulation, or Scopoletin Consumption in Cultured Tobacco Cells Treated with Elicitin
H2O2 from the oxidative burst, cell death, and defense responses such as the production of phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), salicylic acid (SA), and scopoletin were analyzed in cultured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) cells treated with three proteinaceous elicitors: two elicitins (α-megaspermin and β-megaspermin) and one glycoprotein. These three proteins h

10. Production of the Isoflavones Genistein and Daidzein in Non-Legume Dicot and Monocot Tissues
Metabolic engineering for production of isoflavones in non-legume plants may provide the health benefits of these phytoestrogens from consumption of more widely used grains. In legumes, isoflavones function in both the symbiotic relationship with rhizobial bacteria and the plant defense response. Expression of a soybean isoflavone synthase (IFS) gene in Arab

11. Mortality due to respiratory cancers in the coke oven plants of the Lorraine coalmining industry (Houillères du Bassin de Lorraine).
The main activity of the Houillères du Bassin de Lorraine (Lorraine Collieries), employing 23,000 operatives and executives, is coalmining. The coke production is carried out by two coke oven plants with a workforce of respectively 747 and 552 workers. The coal coking process entails the emission of noxious products such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

12. Biosynthesis of Very-Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Transgenic Oilseeds: Constraints on Their AccumulationW⃞
ω6- and ω3-polyunsaturated C20 fatty acids represent important components of the human diet. A more regular consumption and an accordingly sustainable source of these compounds are highly desirable. In contrast with the very high levels to which industrial fatty acids have to be enriched in plant oils for competitive use as chemical feedstocks, much lower
