Hyptis crenata, commonly known as “salva-do-Marajó”, “hortelã-do-campo”, and “hortelãzinha”, is used in folk medicine in Northeast Brazil as tea or infusion to treat inflammatory diseases. Due to the pharmacological efficacy and the low toxicity of the essential oil of Hyptis crenata (EOHc), we decided to investigate the EOHc antiedematogenic effect in experimental models of inflammation. EOHc was administrated...

For this reason and because Pterodon polygalaeflorus seeds have great EO content, which is frequently pharmacologically active, the present study aimed to evaluate the antinociceptive effect of EO from Pterodon poly...
The influence of the toroidal geometry, and the plasma column displacement, over the usual tokamak poloidal magnetic field configuration was investigated for circular plasmas through a series of simulations. The results obtained clearly showed the existence of a change in phase modulation of the Mirnov signals, which are not usually considered when the magnetic signals are Fourier analyzed in the frame of cylin...
