Occupational chemical exposure and health status of wildland firefighters at th...
Teixeira, Tatiana; Almeida, Liliana; Dias, Isabel; Baptista, João Santos; Santos, Joana; Vaz, Mário; Guedes, JoanaWildland firefighting represents a physically and mentally demanding endeavour fraught with various risk factors. The primary aim of this study is to delineate occupational chemical exposure within the firefighting work environment on the firefront and its implications for firefighters’ health status. A systematic literature review was conducted utilising diverse keyword combinations across Scopus, Web of Scien...
Occupational exposure and health of wildland firefighters: protocol for a syste...
Teixeira, Tatiana; Dias, Isabel; Santos, Joana; Vaz, Mário; Baptista, João Santos; Guedes, J. C.The frequency of forest fires has increased in recent years. This phenomenon has led to an increase in the difficulty of fighting them and an increase in the occupational exposure of firefighters. This study aims to carry out a systematic review protocol to obtain information on firefighters' occupational exposure on the fire front. A protocol was carried out following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systemat...

Physical demand assessment of volunteer firefighters during wildland firefighting
Teixeira, Tatiana; Pratas, Pedro; Santos, Joana; Monteiro, Pedro R.; Baptista, João Santos; Vaz, Mário A. P.; Guedes, Joana C.Wildland firefighting is physically and mentally demanding. The aerobic capacity of firefighters is important due to the demands of the activity and the associated occupational risks. The main objectives of this study were to identify and characterise the physically demanding tasks undertaken by volunteer firefighters during wildland fires (real work conditions). A total of 125 firefighters replied to a survey ...
Comunicação Organizacional: a chave para o sucesso das organizações
Teixeira, TatianaAbstract We live defying times, we tend to walk towards a path of diversity and inclusion where personal identity must be respected and where flexibility and transversality tend to be a reality, and organizations are not an exception. In this article, I approach how organizational communication can be the tool that is missing for success, by approaching the general timeline of evolution of organizational commun...
Firefighters occupational exposure assessment: a systematic literature review
Teixeira, Tatiana; Dias, Isabel; Santos, Joana; Bustos, Denisse; Guedes, J.C.Over the years, the evolution of forest fires has occurred as a result of the evolution of the human species. However, forest fires are still a major challenge for society, placing firefighters with greater occupational exposure. The present study has as main objective to carry out a systematic review of the literature on the main techniques and variables for assessing the occupational exposure of firefighters,...
New insights into the genetic composition and phylogenetic relationship of wolv...
Pires, Ana Elisabete; Amorim, Isabel R.; Borges, Carla; Simões, Fernanda; Teixeira, Tatiana; Quaresma, Andreia; Petrucci-Fonseca, Francisco; Matos, JoséThis study investigates the gene pool of Portuguese autochthonous dog breeds and their wild counterpart, the Iberian wolf subspecies (Canis lupus signatus), using standard molecular markers. A combination of paternal and maternal molecular markers was used to investigate the genetic composition, genetic differentiation and genetic relationship of native Portuguese dogs and the Iberian wolf. A total of 196 unrel...
Determination of ascorbic acid and acetylsalicylic acid in commercial preparati...
Pereira, Olívia R.; Gomes, Cláudia; Gonçalves, Cristina; Borlido, Diana; Batista, Marta; Teixeira, Tatiana; Dias, L.G.The electronic tongue is a multi-sensors system used to identify the basic standards of taste, such as sweet, salty, sour and bitter, at levels not detectable by humans. Although the main purpose of electronic tongue is the qualitative analysis, the quantitative analysis of substances in a liquid matrix is also possible, having been the subject of these preliminary studies the application of electronic tongue t...

Oxidative stress in deep scattering layers: heat shock response and antioxidant...
Lopes, Ana Rita; Trübenbach, Katja; Teixeira, Tatiana; Lopes, Vanessa M.; Pires, Vanessa; Baptista, Miguel; Repolho, Tiago; Calado, RicardoDiel vertical migrators, such as myctophid fishes, are known to encounter oxygen minimum zones (OMZ) during daytime in the Eastern Pacific Ocean and, therefore, have to cope with temperature and oxidative stress that arise while ascending to warmer, normoxic surface waters at night-time. The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant defense strategies and heat shock response (HSR) in two myctophid sp...
