Chitosan/collagen biomembrane loaded with 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran for the treatme...
Braz, Elton Marks Araujo; Silva, Solranny Carla Cavalcante Costa; Alves, Michel Muálem Moraes; Carvalho, Fernando Aécio Amorim; Magalhães, RuiIn this work, chitosan/collagen-based membranes loaded with 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (2,3-DHB) were developed through a simple solvent-casting procedure for use in the treatment of cutaneous Leishmaniasis. The obtained membranes were characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, TG, DSC, and XRD. Porosity, swelling, mechanical properties, hydrophilicity, and antioxidant activity were analyzed. In addition, assessment...
Potential wound healing effect of gel based on chicha gum, chitosan, and maurit...
Ferreira, Maria Onaira Gonçalves; Ribeiro, Alessandra Braga; Rizzo, Marcia Santos; Oliveira, Antonia Carla de Jesus; Osajima, Josy AnteveliWounds are considered a clinically critical issue, and effective treatment will decrease complications, prevent chronic wound formation, and allow rapid healing. The development of products based on naturally occurring materials is an efficient approach to wound healing. Natural polysaccharides can mimic the extracellular matrix and promote cell growth, thus making them attractive for wound healing. In this con...

Biopolymer from water kefir as a potential clean-label ingredient for health ap...
Lucena, Monalisa de Alencar; Ramos, Igor Frederico da Silveira; Geronço, Maurycyo Silva; Araújo, Ricardo de; Filho, Francisco Lopes da SilvaThe present work aimed to characterize the exopolysaccharide obtained from water kefir grains (EPSwk), a symbiotic association of probiotic microorganisms. New findings of the technological, mechanical, and biological properties of the sample were studied. The EPSwk polymer presented an Mw of 6.35 x 10(5) Da. The biopolymer also showed microcrystalline structure and characteristic thermal stability with maximum...
Biocompatible gels of chitosan-buriti oil for potential wound healing applications
Ferreira, Maria Onaira Gonçalves; Lima, Idglan Sá; Ribeiro, Alessandra Braga; Lobo, Anderson O.; Rizzo, Marcia Santos; Osajima, Josy AnteveliThe buriti oil (Mauritia flexuosa L.) can be associated with polymeric matrices for biomedical applications. This study aimed to evaluate the e ect of chitosan gel (CG) associated with buriti oil (CGB) as a healing agent. The fatty acids and volatile compounds composition of buriti oil were performed and the composite gels were characterized using FTIR and thermal analysis. Biological tests including antimicrob...

Development of composite scaffolds based on cerium doped-hydroxyapatite and nat...
Santos, Marcus Vinicius Beserra dos; Rocha, Lorenna Bastos Nogueira; Vieira, Ewerton Gomes; Oliveira, Ana Leite; Lobo, Anderson OliveiraHydroxyapatite (HAp) is a ceramic material composing the inorganic portion of bones. Ionic substitutions enhance characteristics of HAp, for example, calcium ions (Ca2+) by cerium ions (Ce3+). The use of HAp is potentialized through biopolymers, cashew gum (CG), and gellan gum (GG), since CG/GG is structuring agents in the modeling of structured biocomposites, scaffolds. Ce-HApCG biocomposite was synthesized us...
Estado nutricional e clorofila foliar do maracujazeiro-amarelo em função de bio...
Silva Júnior, Gabriel Barbosa da; Cavalcante, Ítalo Herbert Lucena; Albano, Francisca Gislene; Osajima, Josy AnteveliDiante dos altos custos de produção e da necessidade de conservação dos recursos ambientais, vem-se buscando alternativas agroecológicas, priorizando a qualidade do produto e reduzindo o nível de contaminações dos agroecossistemas. Assim, realizou-se um trabalho com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito de biofertilizantes líquidos, adubação com 50 e 100% da recomendação de adubação nitrogenada e potássica em cobertu...
New organic substrates and boron fertilizing for production of yellow passion f...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2016-03-03; Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq); FAPEPI (Foundation for Research Support of Piaui State); The identification of alternative substrates suitable for seedling production is very important, while boron nutrition is also relevant due to plant requirement and its difficul...
Conservação de inflorescências de helicônias previamente adubadas com doses cre...
Amaral, Genilda Canuto; Beckmann-Cavalcante, Márkilla Zunete; Brito, Leonardo Pereira da Silva; Lima, Marluce Pereira Damasceno; Osajima, Josy AnteveliA longevidade das hastes florais é um dos principais aspectos observados na produção de flores para corte, constituindo-se um pré-requisito para a qualidade do produto e sucesso da comercialização. Nesse sentido, objetivou-se avaliar a conservação de inflorescências de helicônias com ou sem renovação da água de manutenção, previamente adubadas com doses crescentes de nitrogênio e potássio. Foram utilizadas infl...
