1. Operating Model and Estimation of the Insurance Premium for an Energy Futures Clearing House in Brazil
Abstract Purpose We propose and analyze a new operating model for an energy futures exchange that could be implemented in Brazil, where there is low liquidity for these contracts. The clearing house temporarily assumes the position of customers who fail to answer the margin call, instead of closing the position, as would normally be done under normal condit

3. Evidence for the efficacy of Tai Chi for treating rheumatoid arthritis: an overview of systematic reviews
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic disease with higher prevalence among women aged between 30 and 50 years and general prevalence of 1% worldwide. Interventions promoting improvement of quality of life for individuals with RA are required. Tai Chi appears to be a low-cost alternative, with studies showing positive results from this

4. Optimization of hot-air drying conditions on functional properties of flour from dried South African sweet potato cultivars (Impilo and Bophelo) using the response surface methodology
Abstract The response surface method (RSM) has an important application in formulation of new products. This study determined the effect of electric hot-air drying on the functional properties of flour made from orange-fleshed sweet potato (OFSP). Flour from the cultivars Bophelo (B) and Impilo (IM) were treated with 13 temperature-time combinations designed

5. Utilization of ferronickel slag in hot mix asphalt
Abstract The growing concern in minimizing the disorderly disposal of waste in nature has been influencing measures that seek to give new environmentally sustainable and economically viable purposes for these materials. The use of steel slag aggregate in road paving emerges as an alternative for reducing the storage of this material in industrial yards, as w

6. Arsenic and Other Elements Determination in Seawater Using Coprecipitation and Standard Mode Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry
The present work aims the determination of As, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn and Pb in seawater samples using coprecipitation extraction procedure before standard mode inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) (no collision/reaction cell). The coprecipitation procedure is based on the precipitation of Mg(OH)2 from the reaction of the Mg2+ ions (present into the

7. Green Extraction Optimization of Bioactive Compounds from Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) Using Response Surface Methodology
Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) is known for its bioactive compounds with high antioxidant potential and pharmacological properties, such as antibacterial, antidepressant and anti-inflammatory. These properties are attributed to the presence of (poly)phenolic compounds. In the literature there is no extraction of these compounds with a totally non-toxic

8. One-Step Isolation of Monoterpene Indole Alkaloids from Psychotria leiocarpa Leaves and Their Antiviral Activity on Dengue Virus Type-2
The leaf MeOH extract of Psychotria leiocarpa (Rubiaceae) showed in vitro non-cytotoxic and anti-dengue virus serotype 2 (DENV2) activity in human hepatocarcinoma cell lineage (HepG2). A one-step and cost-effective reversed-phase solid-phase extraction method based on high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) parameters allowed the isolation, directly fr

9. A Simple Approach to Analyze Sugar Nectar Composition in Flowers Using Capillary Electrophoresis and Enzymatic Assays
Despite the obvious importance of nectar, the composition of this solution remains surprisingly understudied to most of the flowers. Here we describe a simple, low-cost, and reliable methodology to analyze the three main sugars present in 210 nectar samples of Christmas Bellflowers using capillary electrophoresis (CE) and enzymatic assays. CE separation (-16

11. Cost minimization analysis of an in-house molecular test for cytomegalovirus in relation to a commercial molecular system
ABSTRACT Introduction: Cytomegalovirus may cause severe disease in immunocompromised patients. Nowadays, quantitative polymerase chain reaction is the gold-standard for both diagnosis and monitoring of cytomegalovirus infection. Most of these assays use cytomegalovirus automated molecular kits which are expensive and therefore not an option for small labora

12. Enurese noturna: uma condição comórbida,
ABSTRACT The present study presents the application of artificial neural network (ANN) to predict the modulus of rupture (MOR) and mass loss (ML) of the fire retarded fiberboard. Hence, the effect of adding the fire retardants including boric acid, borax and ammonium sulfate was evaluated on MOR and ML of fiberboard manufactured at different press temperatur
