Antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities of Hymenaea martiana Hayne (Fa...
Pacheco,A. G. M.; Pacheco,E. J.; Macedo,L. A. R. O.; Silva,J. C.; Lima-Saraiva,S. R. G.; Barros,V. P.; Oliveira-Junior,R. G.; Branco,A.Abstract Hymenaea martiana is a species popularly known in Northeastern Brazil as “jatobá” and used in folk medicine to treat pain and inflammation. The aim of this work was to evaluate the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activity of H. martiana. In the present study, we carried out an investigation about the effects of the crude ethanolic extract (Hm-EtOH) and the ethyl acetate fraction (Hm-AcOEt) in mod...
Fractions of Selaginella convoluta (Arn.) Spring (Selaginellaceae) attenuate th...
Oliveira-Macêdo,L. A. R.; Pacheco,A. G. M.; Lima-Saraiva,S. R. G.; Silva,J. C.; Oliveira-Júnior,R. G.; Souza,G. R.; Lavor,E. M.; Silva,M. G.Abstract Selaginella convoluta (Arn.) Spring is a species popularly known as “jericó”, and used in folk medicine as analgesic and anti-inflammatory. This study aimed to investigate in mice the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities of the hexane (Sc-Hex) and chloroform (Sc-CHCl3) fractions (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg) obtained by partition of crude ethanol extract from S. convoluta. The preliminary phytoc...
Propagation Model for Path Loss Through Vegetated Environments at 700 – 800 MHz...
Silva,J. C.; Siqueira,G. L.; Castellanos,P. V. G.Abstract In almost all literature about propagation models through vegetated environments, path loss has been proposed based on specimens of temperate clime conditions. In this work, a new propagation model is proposed, based on measurements, carried out on vegetated environments with tropical specimens. These environments are common on suburban and rural areas in Brazil. Current models have presented pessimist...
Effects of a small natural barrier on the spatial distribution of the fish asse...
Silva,J. C.; Gubiani,É. A.; Piana,P. A.; Delariva,R. L.Abstract Geographical barriers influence species distribution and play an important role in the segregation of fish assemblages. The present study aims to test the influence of a small natural barrier on the spatial distribution of fish species in the Verde River, Upper Paraná River Basin, Brazil, considering two biotopes: upstream and downstream of the Branca Waterfall. We observed the highest species richness...
Avaliação tecnológica de cerâmicas tradicionais incorporadas com rejeito do min...
Rodrigues,L. dos S.; Silva,J. C.; Angélica,R. S.; Rabelo,A. A.; Portugal Fagury,R. L. R.; Fagury Neto,E.A indústria cerâmica tem grande papel ambiental quando o assunto é reciclagem de rejeitos. A grande produção industrial que vem se desenvolvendo na Região Norte do país abre espaço para utilização de rejeitos como substituto de matéria-prima na produção de cerâmicas. Esta substituição, além da vantagem ambiental, também confere vantagens às características físicas da cerâmica produzida. O presente trabalho viso...
The Odivelas Palaeozoic volcano-sedimentary sequence: Implications for the geol...
Moreira,N.; Machado,G.; Fonseca,P. E.; Silva,J. C.; Jorge,R. C. G. S.; Mata,J.We present a preliminary characterization of the structure, stratigraphy and petrography of a sequence including the Odivelas Limestone near Covas Ruivas locality (Ossa-Morena Zone, Évora-Beja Domain). In this area, limestone and tuffites occur spatially associated with mafic meta-volcanic rocks presenting mineral parageneses typical of low grade metamorphism (greenschists facies) and with the occasional occurr...
