Heavy metal pollution is a matter of concern in industrialised countries. Contrary to organic pollutants, heavy metals are not metabolically degraded. This fact has two main consequences: its bioremediation requires another strategy and heavy metals can be indefinitely recycled. Yeast cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are produced at high amounts as a by-product of brewing industry constituting a cheap raw mate...
The present work describes the optimization of a short-term assay, based on the inhibition of the esterase activity of the alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, in a microplate format. The optimization of the staining procedure showed that the incubation of the algal cells with 20 μmolL−1 fluorescein diacetate (FDA) for 40 min allowed discrimination between metabolic active and inactive cells. The shortterm ass...
The effect of intracellular reduced glutathione (GSH) in the lead stress response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was investigated. Yeast cells exposed to Pb, for 3 h, lost the cell proliferation capacity (viability) and decreased intracellular GSH level. The Pb-induced loss of cell viability was compared among yeast cells deficient in GSH1 (∆gsh1) or GSH2 (∆gsh2) genes and wild-type (WT) cells. When exposed to Pb,...

Relatório de estágio de mestrado em Ensino da Música
Em português, assim com em outra linguas românicas, certos complementos verbais – especialmente quando governados pelas preposições para ou a (ambas usualmente traduzidas por to ou for) – podem ser convertidas no que alguns gramáticos tradicionais chamam de ''pronomes dativos'', como em A Maria lhe deu um livro. Chamaremos essa contrução de dativização em português. Nosso objetivo neste trabalho é estudar as pr...
