1. Carbon Dots from Pilosocereus gounellei for Fluorimetric Determination of Tannin in Tea Using a Flow-Batch System
In this study, xiquexique (Pilosocereus gounellei) native endemic cactus from the Brazilian semiarid was used for the first time as a natural carbon source (“green precursor”) for the synthesis of highly fluorescent carbon dots (CDs). These CDs were successfully used to develop a fast, low-cost, eco-friendly fluorescence method for the determination of t

2. A Modified Ascending Aortic Cannulation Technique in Minimally Invasive Totally Thoracoscopic Cardiac Surgery
ABSTRACT Cannulation through the femoral artery is the preferred method of establishing peripheral cardiopulmonary bypass in minimally invasive totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery. However, faced with the contraindication of femoral artery cannulation, modified ascending aortic cannulation is an alternative approach to minimally invasive totally thoracosco

3. Development of a Disposable Pipette Extraction Method Using Coffee Silverskin as an Adsorbent for Chromium Determination in Wastewater Samples by Solid Phase Extraction
A procedure using disposable pipette tips adapted for solid-phase extraction, known as DPX SPE, was used as an alternative way for the chromium determination in wastewater samples. DPX-SPE consists of a device which allows a dynamic contact between the sample and the solid-phase. A residue obtained from the processing of coffee beans, denominate coffee silve

4. Obtainment of a new metal matrix composite from the recycling of UNS S31803 duplex stainless steel by powder metallurgy
Abstract The purpose of circular economy is to maximize resources efficiency. With the increase in consumption of raw materials, energy and waste generation, recycling is necessary for environmental and industrial reasons. Thus, the powder metallurgy, together with mechanical milling, stands as a new method for scraps recycling. This study aimed to produce U

5. Effects of Citrus Sudden Death Disease on Fatty Acid Profile of Orange Tree Bark
Citrus sudden death (CSD) is a disease that has affected millions of orange trees in Brazil, leading to economic losses in the order of billions of US dollars. This article examines the effects of CSD on the fatty acid composition of triacylglycerides (TAG) extracted from rootstock and scion bark. The fatty acid profile determined by gas chromatography showe

6. A Nodal-iterative Technique for Criticality Calculations in Multigroup Neutron Diffusion Models
ABSTRACT In this work, a nodal and iterative technique to evaluate the effective multiplication factor as well as the neutron flux, in multigroup diffusion problems, is presented. An iterative scheme, similar to the source iteration method, is implemented to decouple the system of differential equations which is the fundamental mathematical model. Then, anal

7. Urethral monopolar cauterization: alternative infravesical obstruction model in male rats
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: We aimed to determine which method gives the most consistent results between urethral monopolar cauterization and standard urethral partial ligation methods for the urethral obstruction model. METHODS: Thirty male rats were randomly divided into control, partial ligation, and monopolar cauterization groups. Six weeks after experimental p

8. An alternative route to extract nickel and cobalt from non-commercial laterite ore
Abstract Laterite ores, which represent around two-thirds of nickel reserves, became an important source of nickel and cobalt metals. The objective of the present study was to investigate the efficiency of a hybrid route to extract nickel and cobalt present in a laterite ore sample which was not commercially attractive to be processed through the current rou

9. Thermal characterization of soil-cement bricks using mining tailings
Abstract Soil-cement bricks are earth construction materials that have been gaining prominence due to their environmental advantages. The Brazilian Technical Standard NBR 8491 establishes physical and mechanical procedures to characterize these bricks. However, the thermal characterization is an important assessment, since it is related to the building’s t

10. Natural and Semisynthetic Triterpenes from Combretum leprosum Mart. with Antiplasmodial Activity
Malaria is responsible for thousands of deaths each year. Currently, artemisinin combination therapy (ACT) is used as first-choice medication against the disease. However, the emergence of resistant strains prompts the search for alternative compounds. The present study aimed to investigate the antiplasmodial activities of natural triterpenes (compounds 1 an

11. The role of transperineal ultrasound in the evaluation of stress urinary incontinence cases
ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate the use of transperineal ultrasonography while diagnosing stress urinary incontinence (SUI) by comparing the urethral angle (α), posterior urethrovesical angle (β), and bladder neck descent (BND) during rest and Valsalva maneuver in continent women and women with SUI. Materials and methods: This prospective observational stu

12. Comparison of the suprainguinal fascia iliaca compartment block with continuous epidural analgesia in patients undergoing hip surgeries: a retrospective study
Abstract Background and objective Pain control is one of the major concerns after major hip surgeries. Suprainguinal fascia iliaca compartment block (S-FICB) is an alternative analgesic technique that can be considered as an effective and less invasive method than epidural analgesia (EA). In this retrospective study, we compared postoperative analgesic effi
