O descarte incorreto dos chamados Resíduos Sólidos da Saúde (RSS) é algo que causa grande impacto na integridade do meio ambiente e coloca a vida da população em risco, principalmente dos trabalhadores em contato direto com esses materiais. Objetos perfuro-cortantes, como agulhas, além de materiai...

Endoglucanase production by endophytic fungi isolated from vitis labrusca l. with peanut hull and sawdust as substrates

Biosci. j. (Online); 35 (3), 2019
Endoglucanases are enzymes widely employed in different industrial fields, albeit with high production costs. Studies on new microbial sources and low-cost substrates are highly relevant, including those on agro-industrial. Current analysis evaluates peanut hull (PH) and sawdust (SD) ...

Allometric models to estimate tree height in northern Amazonian ecotone forests

Acta amaz; 49 (2), 2019
Allometric models defining the relationship between stem diameter and total tree height in the Amazon basin are important because they refine the estimates of tree carbon stocks and flow in the region. This study tests different allometric models to estimate the total tree height from the stem diameter i...

Encapsulación de Weissella paramesenteroides y su aplicación en residuos de pescado
Weissella paramesenteroides encapsulation and its application in the use of fish wastes

Rev. argent. microbiol; 51 (1), 2019
The goal of the present study was to evaluate the encapsulation of Weissella paramesenteroides, isolated from bee bread, as a technological tool for its use in biological fish silage. The pH decrease in fish silages using the bacteria encapsulated and in a non-encapsulated form was compared. W. paramesen...

Bioprodução de pediocina por Pediococcus pentosaceus ET34 em resíduo agroindustrial hidrolisado bagaço de cana-de-açúcar

Um dos grandes desafios nas indústrias alimentícia, farmacêutica e agropecuária é a busca por novos compostos para substituir os antibióticos. Como possíveis candidatos estão as bacteriocinas para serem utilizados paralelamente aos antibióticos ou até substituí-los. As bactérias ácido-látic...

Composition of bacterial community in enrichment cultures of shale by-products from Irati Formation, Brazil

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (4), 2018
ABSTRACT We examined microbial communities from enriched fine and retorted shale particles using sequencing of V4 variable region of 16S rRNA. High number of microbial genera was found in both enriched shale by-products that were dominate by Actinobacteria, Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, showing differen...
