The thistle flower is usually associated to the making of cheese, because it’s responsible for the phenomenon of the coagulation of milk. However, the number of studies about the chemical composition on this plant has risen, in an attempt to understand its health benefits. The objective of this work was to characterize the thistle flower in relation to its antioxidant activity, the composition of phenolic comp...
In Portugal, the flowers of Cynara cardunculus L. are traditionally used for the production of cheese “Serra da Estrela”, because they are responsible for the phenomenon of the coagulation of milk. The leaves may be used in diet as teas, soups, stews or salads. The phenolic compounds, such as phenolic acids and flavonoids, have been associated to their potential health benefits.The objective of this work was to...
Projecto de Graduação apresentado à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de Licenciado em Serviço Social ; O fenómeno da imigração de brasileiros em Portugal não é recente. Começou por estar circunscrito às elites, mas a partir de 1990 assumiu contornos terceiro-mundistas, consistindo num grande fluxo de pessoas associado a origens sociais modestas.

Os compostos fenólicos estão amplamente presentes no reino vegetal, sendo essenciais para o crescimento e reprodução das plantas, além de serem responsáveis pela cor, adstringência e aroma em vários alimentos [1]. Estes compostos, sendo antioxidantes, combatem os radicais livres, previnem doenças cardíacas, doenças neurodegenerativas, problemas do aparelho circulatório, cancro, inflamação e inibem a oxidação li...
O consumo de bagas tornou-se popular entre os consumidores preocupados com a saúde devido aos seus altos níveis de compostos fenólicos com propriedades antioxidantes [1]. Os mirtilos têm atraído atenção especial devido à sua alta capacidade antioxidante e elevada concentração de antocianinas e outros compostos fenólicos, tornando-a numa das frutas mais desejáveis e nutritivas [2]. Para além das antocianinas, os...
The article focuses the professional knowledge that permeates the educational practices of teachers of Early Childhood Education in Brazil, who participated in the In-service Training Program “Escola em Movimento: Saberes e Fazeres em Cena”. It emphasizes that the increase in the quality indicators of education presupposes the existence of public policies directed to the monitoring of such indicators, the manag...
In this paper we present the results of a longitudinal research on blended learning ecosystems, in collaboration with the University of Algarve and innovation centres in Spain and Switzerland. We present the findings of its implementation among students in the final course of Education studies at the University of Oviedo. The sample is of 120 students. The methodology is quantitative. The instruments used are a...
Chemically, the phenolic compounds are cyclic benzene compounds having one or more hydroxyl groups directly associated to the ring structure. While they contain alcohol groups, they do not show properties of alcohols. The phenols can be distinguished into two groups: non-flavonoids and flavonoids [1-4]. Bananas cv. nana and pears cv. D. Joaquina were subject to drying (at 70 ºC) for comparison of their propert...
The agricultural organic farming is different from conventional farming in a way that is aimed at providing a balanced and constructive action in agricultural systems. With the increase in intensive agriculture, undesirable changes were being observed in ecosystems with irreparable damage being caused to the natural equilibrium. This is the reason for the increasing interest in organic farming as an environment...
