3. Characterization of sugarcane bagasse ash (SBA) and its evaluation for use in alkali-activated slag mixtures
Abstract This work proposed to incorporate the sugarcane bagasse ash (SBA) with a high content of organic matter (loss on ignition of 35.87%) in alkali-activated mixtures with blast furnace slag. After grinding SBA, replacement ratios of 10%, 20%, and 30% of the ground ash were used for the flowability evaluation. The mixtures containing 20% and 30% showed a

4. Screening of the Au:Pt Atomic Ratio Supported in SrCO3: Effects on the Performance of the Solvent-Free Oxidation of Benzyl Alcohol
We have prepared, by a sol-immobilization method, bimetallic catalysts with different Au:Pt atomic ratios supported on commercial SrCO3. The catalytic performance for the oxidation reaction of benzyl alcohol of such materials was compared to the monometallic counterparts, aiming at the obtaining of the best composition of the material. It was found that the

5. Academic performance and use of psychoactive drugs among healthcare students at a university in southern Brazil: cross-sectional study
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: People have been using psychoactive substances for a long time. Over the last few years, this practice has spread among university students, who use these substances to improve their academic performance, relieve stress and increase concentration and memory. OBJECTIVES: To estimate the use of psychoactive drugs among healthcare stude

6. Beware of reflectance confocal microscopy artifacts when searching hyphae in acral skin,
ABSTRACT Background: Although performance of rapid immunochromatographic tests (RITs) for dengue virus (DENV) serotypes 1, 2 and 3 is relatively settled, evidence on accuracy of RITs for DENV-4 are based on studies with small sample sizes and with discrepant results. Objectives: To assess accuracy and inter-observer agreement of RITs targeting dengue nonst

8. ERRATUM
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Cervical cancer screening in Brazil is done using Pap smears. Women who are most likely to have a preinvasive lesion or cervical cancer are immediately referred for colposcopy. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of endocervical cytological tests in diagnosing preinvasive cervical lesions in wo

11. Corrosion Resistance of TiO2-ZrO2 Nanocomposite Thin Films Spin Coated on AISI 304 Stainless Steel in 3.5 wt. % NaCl Solution
Utilizing high chromium and nickel content in AISI 304 steel confers its good corrosion resistance. However, the high content of chromium and nickel increases the steel susceptibility to corrosion caused by the high concentration of chlorine. Consequently, the electrochemical and mechanical performance of the steel degrades. In this study, the effect of addi

12. Metabolic responses to dietary carbohydrate/lipids ratios in neotropical hybrid catfish (♂Pseudoplatystoma corruscans×♀Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum)
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of different carbohydrate and lipid (CHO/L) ratios on the performance and energy metabolism of hybrid catfish (♂Pseudoplatystoma corruscans × ♀ Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum). One hundred and sixty-eight fish (104.9±16.5 g BW) were distributed into 24 100-L tanks. The experiment was performed u
