1. Nuts and Cardiovascular Diseases: Focus on Brazil Nuts
Abstract Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the main cause of death globally and most CVD can be prevented by addressing their risk factors, such as an unhealthy diet. Many authors have studied the benefits of nut consumption on CVD. Nuts contain high amounts of vegetable protein, unsaturated fatty acids, dietary fibers, vitamins, minerals and many other bioa

2. Recuperação de solo salino-sódico por fitorremediação com Atriplex nummularia ou aplicação de gesso. / Reclamation of saline-sodic soil by phytoremediation with Atriplex nummularia or application gypsum.
Arid and semi-arid environments may present salty soils, which hamper plant growth, being removed from productive process constituting degradation cores. Under these conditions, glycophyte plants cant growth because high levels of salts hinder their metabolism, however, for halophytes this is favorable environment and these plants may represent a key to soil

3. Occurrence of aflatoxin B1 in natural products
The media claims for the consumption of natural resource-based food have gradually increased in both developing and developed countries. The interest in the safety of these products is partially due to the possible presence of toxigenic fungi acting as mycotoxin producers, such as aflatoxins produced during the secondary metabolism of Aspergillus flavus, A.

4. Intake, nutrient apparent digestibility and ruminal constituents of sheep fed diets with canola, sunflower or castor oils
The objective in this experiment was to determine the effects of feeding diets with canola, sunflower or castor oils on intake, nutrient apparent digestibility and ruminal constituents of crossbred Dorper × Santa Inês sheep. Four rumen-cannulated animals of 90.2±11.4 kg average body weight were assigned to a 4 × 4 latin square. Animals remained individua

5. Phytotoxicity of cadmium and barium and derivation of critical limits in soils / Fitotoxidade de cádmio e bário e derivação de lilites críticos em solos
Soil pollution by heavy metals caused by anthropogenic activities is a problem in many countries. Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most hazardous elements due to its relatively high mobility in soils and transfer to plants. The main human exposure pathway to Cd is through the vegetable consumption and depends on the exposure scenario. Thus, defining a critical lim

6. Impact of a 2-year intervention program on cardiometabolic profile according to the number of goals achieved
We investigated the impact of lifestyle goal achievement on cardiovascular risk factors after a 2-year behavioral intervention program applied to 394 adults (113 with diabetes, mean age 60.2 ± 11.4 years, 56% women) and targeting four goals: ≥5% weight loss; ≥150 min/week physical activities; <10% saturated fat intake/day; ≥400 g fruit and vegetable i

7. Contribuição da fitoquímica para o desenvolvimento de um país emergente
The sustainable development of an emergent country is dependent on a consistent scientific, technologic and innovative policy, on nature and biodiversity, on a rational exploration of natural resources to feeding, social advance and economical aim along with maintenance of health and diseases treatment. Phytochemical investigations may be used to contribute

8. Determination of nitrate in lettuce by ion chromatography after microwave water extraction
Lettuce is worldwide known as the most important vegetable. In this context, most farmers are searching new techniques for best quality products including hydropony. However, nitrate is of great concern, since it has a negative impact on human metabolism. The main objective of the present work was to evaluate the nitrate content of lettuce produced by conven

9. Estudo do metabolismo de ácidos graxos em Pseudomonas putida visando a modulação da composição monomérica de elastômero biodegradável. / Study of fatty acids metabolism in Pseudomonas putida aiming to modulate monomer composition of biodegradable elastomer.
Different strategies were applied to modulate the composition of biodegradable elastomeric polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) accumulated by Pseudomonas from fatty acids and plant oils, in order to improve the applications of this material, mainly by unsaturated monomer insertion. PHA composition varied both with fatty acid type and fatty acids ratio in mixtures su

10. Different threonine: lysine relations in chicks cutting diets supplemented with glycine: enzymatic activity and performance / Diferentes relações treonina: lisina em dietas para pintos de corte, suplementadas com glicina: desempenho e atividade enzimática
Two experiments were conducted, one for performance and another for metabolism, with objectives of evaluating the effect of different digestible threonine: digestible lysine relations, supplemented or not with glycine on the performance, the threonine aldolase, threonine dehydrogenase and threonine dehydratase enzyme activity and the uric acid excretion of c

11. Water intake and digestive metabolism of broilers fed all-vegetable diets containing acidulated soybean soapstock
A study was conducted to compare live performance and digestive metabolism of broiler chickens fed all-vegetable diets (All-Veg) compared to a regular diet including animal by-products. Three feeds were formulated and provided to broilers according to the feeding program: pre-starter from 1 to 10 days, starter from 11 to 21 days, and grower from 21 to 35 day

12. Efeitos do nitrogênio no crescimento e no metabolismo de frutanos em Vernonia herbacea (Vell.) Rusby / Effects of nitrogen in growth and fructan metabolism in Vernonia herbacea (Vell.) Rusby
O nitrogênio é um dos elementos mais limitantes no desenvolvimento de plantas. Vernonia herbacea (Vell.) Rusby, Asteraceae do cerrado, possui órgãos subterrâneos (rizóforos) que armazenam frutanos do tipo inulina. Estudos anteriores mostraram que o tratamento com solução nutritiva contendo 1,3 mmol L-1 NO3 - (Nlimitado) promoveu o acúmulo de frutano
