1. Erros judiciários em tempos de digital surveillance: os algoritmos de reconhecimento facial em questão
Resumo The overall complexity of the subject matter and the required high level of expertise make environmental crime investigations quite a challenging task for law enforcement. The clandestine nature of environmental offences combined with the environmental law’s intricacy is among the reasons behind prosecutorial failures. The authors analyze a criminal

2. 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

3. Organic Matter Leached from Tropical Soils by Simulated Rain, Hard (NaOH) and Soft (NaNO3) Extractions: A Realistic Study about Risk Assessment in Soils
Alkaline extractions from humic material are used to risk assessment in soils. However, there are questions about the type of extraction most suitable for this evaluation. Thus, this work evaluated different soil extractions in search of realistic environmental conditions (simulated rain). The parameters obtained revealed significant differences between the

4. Trace analysis of environmental endocrine disrupting contaminant bisphenol A in canned, glass and polyethylene terephthalate plastic carbonated beverages of diverse flavors and origin
Abstract Bisphenol A (BPA) is a hazardous contaminant demonstrating endocrine disrupting properties, and assumed to be involved in the pathogenesis of various cancer diseases for instance prostate, lung and breast cancer. The objective of the present study was to estimate the BPA amounts in carbonated beverages from the Saudi Arabian market for the first tim

5. FAST DETERMINATION OF THE SULFUR SPECIES IN SOLID PHASE SYSTEMS BY A TPO-IR METHOD
Qualitative and quantitative assessment of total sulfur and sulfur species in solid phase is necessarily important for development of effective desulfurization methods, reduction of environmental pollution, and prevention of catalyst poisoned. In this work, TPO-IR (Temperature Programmed Oxidation- Infrared) method was used for rapid determination of sulfur

6. Sarcopenia pediátrica: explorando um novo conceito em crianças com doença hepática crônica,
Abstract Background Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic repercussions and an association with comorbidities such as metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, and obesity. Psoriasis patients have a higher prevalence of obesity compared to the general population. Diet is a relevant environmental factor, since malnutrition, inadequate

7. Dietary patterns of patients with psoriasis at a public healthcare institution in Brazil,
Abstract Background Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic repercussions and an association with comorbidities such as metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, and obesity. Psoriasis patients have a higher prevalence of obesity compared to the general population. Diet is a relevant environmental factor, since malnutrition, inadequate

8. Evaluation and Geostatistical Study of Toxicological Risk by Water Ingestion with Al, Ba, Fe and Pb in Communities Close to Industrial Areas in the Brazilian Amazon
This study provides a risk assessment and risk maps related to the consumption of water contaminated by Al, Ba, Fe and Pb in an industrial area in the Brazilian Amazon. A total of 120 samples of drinking water were collected from 26 locations in the municipality of Barcarena, Pará State. Multiple elements were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma optical

9. USING SOUNDS PRODUCED BY PIGS TO IDENTIFY THERMONEUTRALITY ZONES FOR THERMAL ENVIRONMENT ASSESSMENT RATIOS
ABSTRACT Although dry bulb temperature (T) is the environmental variable most commonly used to classify thermal comfort in pigs, environmental assessment ratios provide more accurate information. The objective of this study was to correlate the sound pressure levels (SPL) produced by piglet vocalization with the thermal environment observed during the nurser

10. Effects of addition of engineered ZnO nanoparticles on the stability of colloidal suspensions containing TiO2 interacting with sandy soil
Abstract The stability of colloidal suspensions of engineered nanoparticles in the environment is of great interest for the risk assessment and treatment of hazardous materials. The relevance of this study is due to the evidence that engineered nanoparticles have been produced and used in commercial products in large scale, especially ZnO and TiO2, which are

11. Determination and Risk Assessment of Formaldehyde and Acetaldehyde in the Ambient Air of Gas Stations in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil
Formaldehyde (FA) and acetaldehyde (AA) were determined in the ambient air of five gas stations (GS) in the city of Salvador, Bahia State, Brazil, using three passive samplers exposed simultaneously for 8 h and analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV). The concentration ranges found were 3.31-5.78 µg m−3 for FA an

12. Correlations of rock mass classifications applied to ferruginous caves
Abstract For the Brazilian iron ore mines, the presence of caves presents a challenge, since most of them are located within the ore deposit. The National Environment Commission (CONAMA 347 Resolution/2004) establishes that the speleological heritage, as well as its area of influence, cannot sustain irreversible environmental impacts. The physical integrity
