The micronucleus (MN) and nuclear abnormality (NA) tests were employed to evaluate the genotoxic potential of Lucrecia dam (RN, Brazil) located in a semi-arid region influenced by crop irrigation irregular rainfall. analyses these water samples demonstrated presence several cyanobacteria as well metals radioactivity. Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was used for assays analysis metal concentrations gills liver samples. Genotoxic source fish showed significant increase frequency damage...
ABSTRACT Water deficit is a current problem of global relevance. This in Brazil, especially the Semiarid region, which undergoes severe droughts for much year. requires search alternatives, such as planned wastewater use, successful alternative developed countries that applied various purposes, including agriculture. However, despite increasing growth agriculture there are no established control and monitoring policies to minimize its impacts on environment human health. The country does not...
The present study evaluated the mutagenic potential of surface water from Lucrecia dam. Tradescantia-micronucleus (Trad-MCN) test and CBMN assay in human peripheral blood lymphocytes were applied, corresponding to an vivo vitro system, respectively. Heavy metals some physicochemical properties also measured. Water samples collected November 2009 (dry season) May 2010 (rainy at three different points. Results both assays for raw showed positive responses points analyzed when compared negative...
The Brazilian semiarid region presents some adverse environmental conditions for the settled population such as a restricted water availability and presence of radon metal natural sources that can contaminate reservoirs consequently become concern human health. present study evaluated quality Riacho das Cachoeiras Dam located in urban area Lajes Pintadas (state Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil) source consumption. An analysis Physicochemical parameters, heavy content Radon samples was performed...
Abstract The reuse is a growing practice in Brazil, given its relevance minimizing the water scarcity. However, environmental consequences and sustainability have not been completely elucidated, being risk perception analysis starting point for understanding such concerns. In this perspective, aim of study was to evaluate operation Sewage Treatment Plants, applicability sewage reuse, influence on quality life population Parelhas Pedro Velho, counties semiarid northeastern coast,...
comunidade, a fim de tornar o sistema autossustentável.Conclui-se que, para desenvolvimento comunidades rurais, dessalinização águas subterrâneas é uma metodologia viável quando se emprega técnicas pós-tratamento e recursos financeiros maneira sustentável.
Voltage sags have become a growing concern to the electric power utilities and customers. This is mainly related increasing application of electronic devices connected grid. are physical phenomenon random nature, inherent in system because its length vulnerability overhead lines from transmission distribution systems. In this context, been facing complaints about voltage sags. Therefore, work aims investigate problems analyze possible solutions real electricity feeder that substation...
