The certification of glass-fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) piping systems is regulated by normative standards in which test series of 10,000 h are required to estimate the residual properties at the end of the expected life (normally, 50 years). In this paper, the possibility to reduce the test duration, whilst maintaining an equivalent prediction of long-term properties, is discussed. Experimental results from...
Brosimum gaudichaudii Tréc. (Moraceae), espécie típica do cerrado, popularmente conhecida como algodãozinho e mama-cadela, é muito apreciada pelo sabor adocicado dos frutos. É planta medicinal utilizada para o tratamento do vitiligo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar as características biométricas das sementes, a emergência e o desenvolvimento de plântulas provenientes de diferentes locais do cerrado mato-g...
Two different methods to detect Fasciola hepatica in faeces using kappa index were compared with four tamises technics and sequencial fitration in two tamises using Flukefinder® apparatus. High accordance between the two methods was observed. The values showed high sensibility and specificity.
We report optical and morphological properties of poly(2-methoxy-5-hexyloxy-p-phenylenevinylene) (OC1OC6-PPV) films processed by casting, spin-coating (SC) and Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) techniques. The absorption spectra are practically the same, with an absorption maximum at approximately at 500 nm. For the photoluminescence (PL) spectra at low temperature (T=10K), a small but significant difference was noted in ...
The expression of P53, Bcl-2, Bax, Bag-1, and Mcl-1 proteins in CD5/CD20-positive B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) cells from 30 typical CLL patients was evaluated before and after 48 h of incubation with 10-6 M fludarabine using multiparametric flow cytometric analysis. Protein expression was correlated with annexin V expression, Rai modified clinical staging, lymphocyte doubling time, and previous treat...
We report on time resolved photoluminescence (PLRT) measurements in poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV) films irradiated by laser in the presence of air. We observe a PL intensity enhancement and a biexponential decay dynamics of PL signal for all irradiated films. These results can be understood in terms of a chain shortening process due to carbonyl incorporation and formation of an energy profile that extends an...
Site-selective luminescence spectroscopy (SSL) was employed to resolve the vibracional modes in self-assembled poly(p-phenylene vinylene), PPV. Using Franck-Condon analysis, the PPV spectra can be well described by three effective vibrational modes at 330, 1160 and 1550 cm-1. As the temperature increases from 4 to 180 K the electron-phonon coupling (S factor) remains constant for the 1550 cm-1 mode while for ot...
Foram utilizados sete cães adultos, três machos e quatro fêmeas, sem raça definida, com pesos entre 10 e 22kg, para avaliação do processo cicatricial do músculo diafragma, na presença do implante de pericárdio bovino conservado em solução supersaturada de açúcar a 300%. Foi criado um defeito na porção muscular do hemidiafragma esquerdo de dimensões 8,0×5,0cm. Após a toracotomia no oitavo espaço intercostal esqu...
