1. Comparative Study of Degradation of Reactive Dyes and Decolorization and Detoxification in Aqueous Solution Applying DyP Peroxidases Isolated from Saccharomonospora viridis (SviDyP) and Thermobifida fusca (TfuDyp)
The wastewater that originates from the widespread usage of synthetic dyes in the industry have become a severe environmental problem. Several efforts have been made to develop new types of treatment which are capable of performing the degradation of the dyes from the environment. Within this scope, much attention has been drawn to enzymatic approaches, main

2. Zn, Co, Cr, As, and genotoxic effects in the ichthyofauna species from polluted and non-polluted/protected estuaries of the São Paulo coast, Brazil
Abstract: The human impact on estuarine regions results in an increasing concentration of trace elements in the environment, exposing aquatic organisms. In this study, Zn, Co, Cr, and As were determined in the muscle tissue of some fish species from Santos-São Vicente (SSV), a recognized polluted region, and in the Cananeia estuary (CAN). Genotoxicity was a

4. Genotoxic evaluation of the River Paranaíba hydrographic basin in Monte Carmelo, MG, Brazil, by the Tradescantia micronucleus
Abstract Pollutants have adverse effects on human health and on other organisms that inhabit or use water resources. The aim of the present study was to assess the environmental quality of three watercourses in Monte Carmelo, MG, Brazil, using the micronucleus test on Tradescantia. For each treatment, 15 plants were exposed to water samples for 24 h. The con

5. Desenvolvimento e aplicação de técnicas miniaturizadas de preparo de amostra na determinação de fármacos no ambiente / Development and application of microextraction sample preparation techniques to determine pharmaceutical drugs in the environment
The occurrence of pharmaceutical drugs in the environment is a worldwide problem caused by the genotoxicity and ecotoxicity activities of those compounds. Water is one of most used natural resource in human activities which explain the presence of emerging contaminants. Those compounds affect not only humans but also aquatic animals that spend the whole life

6. Estudo das alteraÃÃes hematolÃgicas, bioquÃmicas e genotÃxicas induzidas por agrotÃxicos em agricultores do estado do Piauà / STUDY OF POSSIBLE GENETIC CHANGES INDUCED BY PESTICIDES IN FARMERS IN THE STATE OF PIAUÃ
Exposure to pesticides represents a potential risk to human health. In addition to poisoning, these compounds may interact with DNA, causing degenerative diseases, including cancer. The risk assessment for pesticides was conducted in the municipalities of Picos, Piripiri, Barras and Josà de Freitas with farm workers (exposed group) and 55 administrative off

7. AvaliaÃÃo das AlteraÃÃes HematolÃgicas, BioquÃmicas e GenotÃxicas nos Trabalhadores Expostos à AgrotÃxicos em MunicÃpios do Estado do Piauà / Evaluation of Hematologic, Biochemical and Genotoxic Effects in Workers Exposed to Pesticide in Municipalities of PiauÃ
A utilizaÃÃo de agrotÃxicos na agricultura elevou rapidamente seu consumo, especialmente de forma indiscriminada, sendo o Brasil um dos maiores mercados, representando 16% da venda mundial. No PiauÃ, a expansÃo agrÃcola na regiÃo dos cerrados contribuiu para o aumento do seu uso, expondo os agricultores a danos ao DNA. O objetivo desse estudo foi aval

8. Mutagênese ambiental: estabelecimento de valores de referência para manguezais da Baía de Ilha Grande / Environmental mutagenesis: establishment of reference valves for mangroves of Ilha Grande Bay
Environmental studies have shown that substances generated by anthropogenic processes can cause adverse effects by interfering with the ecosystem natural balance. Mangroves perform essential functions in biological cycles and are Permanent Protection Area in Brazil. Unfortunately, they are being degraded above its support limit, leading to a reduction of the

9. AvaliaÃÃo da Piscicultura em Esgoto DomÃstico Tratado: Aspectos ZootÃcnicos, Ambientais e de Qualidade do Pescado Produzido / Evaluation of treated domestic sewage in fish: aspects of husbandry, environmental and quality of fish produced.
The use of wastewater is an alternative widespread nowadays. One way to reuse it in fish activity, considering that the effluent from Sewage Treatment Stations, are rich sources of nutrients that could be used by fish. However, some restrictions arise regarding the quality of animals for use in human diet. Thus, this research was conducted using treated sewa

10. Investigação de contaminantes mutagênicos de matrizes ambientais em área de risco ecotoxicológico
A crescente introdução de variados poluentes em matrizes ambientais de áreas urbanas causa prejuízos ao ecossistema e dificulta as medidas de controle ambiental. Essas substâncias, após liberadas, se distribuem e interagem de acordo com suas características e as do meio receptor. Indicadores precoces de contaminação permitem a adoção de medidas pr

11. Genotoxic evaluation of an industrial effluent from an oil refinery using plant and animal bioassays
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are genotoxic chemicals commonly found in effluents from oil refineries. Bioassays using plants and cells cultures can be employed for assessing environmental safety and potential genotoxicity. In this study, the genotoxic potential of an oil refinery effluent was analyzed by means of micronucleus (MN) testing of Alium

12. Genotoxicidade e composição do material particulado emitido pela queima de Biomassa: um estudo de caso em Tangará da Serra, Região da Amazônia Brasileira
Tangara da Serra is located on southwestern Mato Grosso and is found to be on the route of pollutants dispersion originated in the Legal Amazons deforestation area. This region has also a wide area of sugarcane culture, setting this site quite exposed to atmospheric pollutants. The objective of this work was to evaluate the genotoxicity of three different co
