1. Adhesion evaluation of the Rhodococcus opacus strain on an apatite surface
Abstract Adsorption of microorganisms and/or their different components onto a mineral surface would modify the surface characteristics of the mineral. Thus, this investigation evaluated the adsorption capacity of the Rhodococcus opacus strain onto an apatite surface. Zeta potential and contact angle measurements of the mineral showed dislocations of the val

2. Fundamental bioflotation aspects of hematite using an extracted Rhodococcus opacus by-product
Abstract The aim of this study is to assess the floatability of hematite using a crude biosurfactant (BS) extracted from Rhodococcus opacus. Throughout high-pressure ethanol extraction, unrefined surfactant was extracted from the bacteria with a yield of 0.3 g/L. An FTIR analysis on this extract, shows the presence of alcohol (–OH) and ketone (C=O) groups,

3. Activated Complex Approach to Describe Bovine Serum Albumin-Azure A and Bovine Serum Albumin-Azure B Intermolecular Interactions
Azure A (AZA) and azure B (AZB) phenothiazine dyes are used for clinical and medical purposes, and their functions can be altered via interactions with proteins. However, no kinetics information on the interactions between phenothiazine dyes and bovine serum albumin (BSA) is available. Surface plasmon resonance was used to determine the energetic and dynamic

4. AVALIAÇÃO DE NANOTUBOS DE CARBONO FUNCIONALIZADOS VISANDO O DESENVOLVIMENTO DE MÉTODOS DE PRÉ-CONCENTRAÇÃO DE ÍONS METÁLICOS E DETERMINAÇÃO POR TÉCNICAS ESPECTROMÉTRICAS E ELETROANALÍTICAS
This review focuses on the use of functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the development of preconcentration methods with substantial contributions on selectivity and sensitivity for metal ions determination. CNTs have been usually employed in the development of preconcentration/speciation coupled to spectroanalytical techniques for ions determination at

5. Risk Factors for Mortality in Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit
The present study investigated the activity of pyrimidine derivatives against Aedes aegypti. Two compounds, 3c and 3d showed excellent larvicide activity. Additionally, quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models were built using multiple-linear regression and partial least squares with descriptors generated from Dragon and VolSurf+ software,

7. Produção de biossurfactantes: manoproteínas intracelulares e soforolipídios extracelulares por Saccharomyces cerevisiae
RESUMO Os biossurfactantes apresentam inúmeras aplicações ambientais e são produzidos por diversos microrganismos. Os provenientes da levedura Saccharomyces cerevisiae são pouco estudados para fins ambientais, sendo atóxicos. Objetivou-se o estudo da produção de biossurfactantes intra e extracelular por essa levedura, desenvolvida em meio de cultivo

10. Study of erythrocytes as a novel drug carrier for the delivery of artemether
Resealed erythrocytes have been explored in various dimensions of drug delivery, owing to their high biocompatibility and inability to initiate immune response. The present research was designed to evaluate the drug delivery potential of erythrocytes by loading a hydrophobic anti-malarial drug, Artemether. Three different loading techniques were applied to a

11. Rheological properties of low-density polyethylene filled with hydrophobic Co(Ni)-Al layered double hydroxides
Abstract Cobalt/aluminum and nickel/aluminum layered double hydroxide (LDH - M+2:Al molar ratio of 3:1) were intercalated with dodecylsulphate (DDS), laurate (LAU), stearate (STE) and palmitate (PAL) and used as filler in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) in percentages between 0.2 and 7.0wt%. After injection molding, the samples were submitted to morphologic

12. Morphological, thermal and bioactivity evaluation of electrospun PCL/β-TCP fibers for tissue regeneration
Abstract Electrospinning is a simple and low-cost way to fabricate fibers. Among the various polymers used in electrospinning, polycaprolactone (PCL) stands out due to its excellent biodegradability and biocompatibility. However, PCL has some limitations such as low bioactivity, hydrophobic surface, and long in vivo degradation. Calcium phosphate ceramics h
