Abstract S olanum nigrum L. plants were exposed for 28 days to 100 and 200 μmol/L copper (Cu) in a hydroponic system analyze the antioxidant defense response. A dose‐dependent reduction growth (fresh mass of root shoot, shoot height, elongation) with increasing concentration Cu was observed, whereas treatments did funt affect total chlorophyll carotefunids content. An enhanced lipid peroxidation, terms malondialdehyde ( MDA ) content, quantified shoots when subjected highest level, while...
Applying very high gravity (VHG) fermentation conditions to the sugarcane juice (SCJ) bioethanol industry would improve its environmental and economic sustainability without need for major infrastructure changes or investments. It could enable a decrease in consumption of biological natural resources (cane/land, water energy) while maintaining acceptable production parameters. The present study attempts demonstrate characterise an effective industrially relevant SCJ-VHG process. An...
Cacao plantations from South America have been afflicted with the severe fungal disease known as Witches’ Broom Disease (WBD), caused by basidiomycete Moniliophthora perniciosa . Yeasts are increasingly recognized good biocides, although their application is still mostly restricted to postharvest control of plant and fruit decay. Their possible utilization in field, a preharvest phase, nevertheless promising, particularly if strains locally adapted evolved they belong species considered safe...
Abstract S olanum nigrum L. plants were grown in hydroponic systems exposed to Cr ( III ) or VI under two different exposure regimes (a 4‐week prolonged treatment with lower concentrations and a 1‐week shock higher concentrations), determinate the effects of on plant metabolism growth define phytoremediation potential this species. The data obtained shows that only induced appearance visible symptoms metal toxicity (reduction root shoot fresh mass), while none oxidation states caused...
O linfoma folicular é uma neoplasia linfoproliferativa maligna de comportamento indolente associada a células B do folículo central. Apesar ser o segundo subtipo mais comum Linfoma Não-Hodgkin, sua manifestação na cavidade oral raramente descrita. apresenta pouca informação clínica, epidemiológica e patológica documentada. É descrito um caso diagnosticado partir palato duro numa doente 59 anos. A foi transferida para Serviço Hematologia, tendo sido submetida ao plano tratamento que incluiu...
