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...
The thistle is a plant that is associated with the production of cheese, as it is responsible for the phenomenon of coagulation of milk. Lately there has been an increased the number of studies about this plant, related to the chemical composition in order to perceive the benefits for human health. The aim of this study was to characterize the thistle flower in relation to its composition i...
O principal objetivo deste estudo foi aferir a Literacia Ambiental nos alunos à saída do Ensino Secundário. Pretendeu-se, com a aplicação de um questionário, determinar até que ponto a aposta em Educação Ambiental na Escola Secundária de Santa Maria (Sintra), se tem traduzido tanto em novos conhecimentos quanto em novas atitudes, que uma vez adquiridos se integram e interrelacionam com o conhecimento prévio que...
Este trabalho tem por objectivo principal alertar para a necessidade de se rever o paradigma epistemológico tradicional, segundo o qual, a raiz das nossas decisões éticas e morais assenta, permanentemente, numa base racional. Tendo em consideração os dados obtidos por IRM do cérebro humano constata-se que, efectivamente, a interacção de várias das suas áreas (córtex cingular posterior, girus frontal mediano, su...
At the moment we live, the problematic of the intercultural relations presents itself to us in a particularly intense way. The European project develops and deepens, the phenomena of nationalisms spreads to all Europe, becoming too much evident all the national idiosyncrasies and cultural multiplicities. At the same time we verified phenomena’s of population dislocation in large scale and particularly in Portug...
Under the Mediterranean climatic conditions, the annual precipitation distribution determines that many streams are temporary with surface flow interruption during the summer dry period in contrast to the high discharges during floods, observed from late autumn to early spring. As water flows through the drainage basin it can pick up nutrients, sediments and pollutions. These can affect the ecological processes...
This study evaluates the impacts of wildfires in lotic Mediterranean ecosystems. It was carried out at Monchique ridge after big wildfires occurred during 2002 and 2003. Deferential impacts were evaluated comparing historical results obtained before the wildfires (1999 and 2001), with the post fire ones (2006 and 2007). Physical and chemical parameters of the water, habitat morphology, diatoms, macrophytes, mac...
Dissertação de mest., Contabilidade, Faculdade de Economia, Univ. do Algarve, 2012 ; Em Janeiro de 2010, entrou em vigor em Portugal um novo normativo contabilístico, o SNC, o qual tem como base o normativo internacional emitido pelo IASB no seguimento do processo levado a cabo pela União Europeia de harmonização contabilística. Um dos objectivos principais deste processo de harmonização foi incrementar o grau...
Purpose: To quantify keloid fibroblasts after irradiation with 470nm blue LED, in vitro. Methods: Fibroblasts from keloid and adjacent skin have been obtained from 6 patients. Cells have been cultivated and maintained in DMEM culture medium. In Petri dishes, they were irradiated with energy doses of 6J, 12J and 18J. After 24 h, counting was done by the average of the triplicates for each sample. Results: There ...
OBJECTIVE: To compare ultrasonography (US) to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the clinical activity score (CAS) in Graves' ophthalmopathy. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Nineteen patients underwent extraocular muscle thickness measurements by US and MRI, reflectivity by US and signal-intensity ratio by MRI. There were also twelve US control subjects. RESULTS: US median thicknesses were greater than in controls. Cor...
