Desalination of seawater has become an important and growing
industry due to the water shortage in some Mediterranean countries. This
activity may result in environmental impacts, mainly generated by the
discharge into the sea of the concentrate (brine) produced. Data…

Este trabalho teve por objetivo desenvolver novas formulações de snacks de terceira geração por extrusão termoplástica de misturas de farinhas de pupunha e mandioca e averiguar o potencial do novo produto. A farinha de pupunha foi incorporada à farinha de…

The genus Bradyrhizobium encompasses a variety of bacteria that can live in symbiotic and endophytic associations with legumes and non-legumes, and are characterized by physiological and symbiotic versatility and broad geographical distribution. However, despite indications of great genetic variability within…

Despite its frequent use, there is little understanding of the concept of differential
among upper high school and undergraduate students of physics. As a first step to identify the origin of this situation and to revert it, we have done…

The electrochemical oxidation of the aniline dimers 2-aminodiphenylamine (2-adpa) and 4-aminodiphenylamine (4-adpa) has been
performed in strongly acidic medium on platinum, graphite, and indium tin oxide electrodes. The resulting films have been
characterized by a number of electrochemical, microscopic, and…

The redox process undergone by the electrochemically synthesized poly(2,2-dithiodianiline), poly(DTDA), has been examined in
acetonitrile-water mixtures by electrochemical and spectroscopic techniques. The spectroscopic properties of this material are equivalent to those exhibited by the chemically synthesized one. The polymeric structure…
