Influence of land use on nutrients transport using SWAT model: Study case of Ar...
DURÃO, A.; BRITO, D.; MORAIS, M.; FERNANDES, R.M.; NEVES, R.The impacts of agricultural activities in the environment are due to the lixiviation and soil erosion. Pollution of agricultural origin presents diffuse characteristics reaching the environment through surface runoff, lateral flow and groundwater flow. Models can contribute to understand the sources and the processes responsible for pollution, also identifying areas of concern. To evaluate the status of river w...
Estimation of transported pollutant load in Ardila catchment using the SWAT model
DURÃO, A.; LEITÃO, P.; BRITO, D.; FERNANDES, R.M.; NEVES, R.; MORAIS, M.Excess of organic matter and nutrients in the water body promotes algae blooms, which can accelerate the eutrophication process, situation often observed in the Ardila river. This river was identified as very polluted and classified as critical for Alqueva-Pedrogão System. The aim of this study was to estimate the transported nutrients load in a transboundary catchment using the SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment ...
Hydrological Modeling in temporary streams: A case study in Pardiela basin, Sou...
PEDRO, A.; MORAIS, M.; ROSADO, J.; SILVA, H.; SERAFIM, A.; NEVES, R.; BRITO, D.; POTES, M.; SALGADO, R.; LILLEBØ, I.; CHAMBEL, A.The project “Conservation and rehabilitation strategies for temporary Mediterranean river corridors: a case study on Pardiela basin, southern Portugal (Guadiana basin)", is being carried out,with the collaboration of researchers from diverse scientific areas, in order to increase the knowledge on temporary streams. The project includes different approaches at reach and basin scales, regarding the study of tempo...
Does the intake of LC-PUFAS during pregnancy affect the body composition of ter...
Camões, T.; Silva, A.; Neves, R.; Pereira-da-Silva, Luís; Moreira, Ana Catarina; Virella, Daniel; Alves, M.; Papoila, A. L.; Serelha, M.; Mendes, LinoBackground: The effect of the intake of polynsaturated long chain fatty acids (LCPUFAs) during pregnancy on fetal body composition has been assessed by studies using mostly neonatal anthropometry. Their results have been inconsistent, probably because neonatal anthropometry has several validity limitations. Air displacement plethismography (ADP) is a recently validated non-invasive method for assessing body com...
Antifungal activity of the naphthoquinone beta-lapachone against disseminated i...
Medeiros,C.S.; Pontes-Filho,N.T.; Camara,C.A.; Lima-Filho,J.V.; Oliveira,P.C.; Lemos,S.A.; Leal,A.F.G.; Brandão,J.O.C.; Neves,R.P.The in vivo antifungal activity of the naphthoquinone beta-lapachone against disseminated infection by Cryptococcus neoformans was investigated. Swiss mice were immunosuppressed daily with dexamethasone (0.5 mg per mouse) intraperitoneally for 3 days, the procedure was repeated 4 days later, and the animals were then challenged intravenously with C. neoformans (10(6) CFU/mL) 1 week later. Seven days after infec...
The Risks of Self - Medication: Case Report of Familial Misuse of AM3 (Immunofe...
Oliveira, M; Neves, R; Abranches, MOver the last decades extended medical knowledge has been an important health care benefit in terms of disease prevention and management. However, probably with no exception, most pharmaceutical products are not devoid of adverse consequences. Immunomodulators are commonly considered a “benign” drug whose advantages bypass consequences. The immunomodulator AM3 (Immunoferon®) is a clinically used, orally adminis...

Métodos de manejo de Cyperus esculentus na lavoura de arroz irrigado
Panozzo,L.E.; Agostinetto,D.; Galon,L.; Moraes,P.V.D.; Pinto,J.J.O.; Neves,R.As espécies da família Cyperaceae incluem-se entre as principais plantas daninhas que infestam as lavouras de arroz irrigado no Rio Grande do Sul. Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o controle de Cyperus esculentus, a seletividade e a produtividade de grãos de arroz, cultivar Qualimax 1, em função de épocas de início da irrigação por inundação, épocas de aplicação e doses do herbicida penoxsulam. O experime...
Effect of praziquantel administration on hepatic stereology of mice infected wi...
Barros,L.A.; Costa-Silva,M.; Biolchini,C.L.; Neves,R.H.; Machado-Silva,J.R.A study was undertaken to investigate the effect of administering praziquantel (PZQ), focusing on the liver stereological findings of malnourished mice infected with Schistosoma mansoni. Thirty female Swiss Webster mice (age: 21 days; weight: 8-14 g) were fed either a low-protein diet (8%) or standard chow (22% protein) for 15 days. Five mice in each group were infected with 50 cercariae each of the BH strain (...
Does a shell matter for defence? Chemical deterrence in two cephalaspidean gast...
Neves, R.; Gaspar, Helena; Calado, GonçaloOpisthobranch molluscs show an evolutionary trend to reduce, internalize and lose the shell. Many of them base their defensive strategies on natural deterrent products and current evolutionary theory suggests that the acquisition of chemical defences preceded shell reduction and loss, which has characterized the evolution of this group. Here we show that basal, shelled opisthobranch molluscs are defended agains...
