In situ arsenic speciation at the soil/water interface of saline-alkaline lakes of the Pantanal, Brazil: A DGT-based approach
(Science of the Total Environment, 2022) [Artigo]Arsenic (As) is a naturally occurring element in the Earth's crust, exhibiting toxicity towards a wide range of living organisms. Its properties and environmental dynamics are strongly regulated by its speciation, and the ... -
Antarctic-derived yeasts: taxonomic identification and resistance to adverse conditions
(Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciencias, 2022) [Artigo]Antarctic harsh conditions favor the development of microbial adaptations. In this study, a molecular approach was applied to identify/refine the taxonomy of five yeasts isolated from different Antarctic samples, which ... -
Toxicity of deltamethrin pyrethroid on neotropical millipedes, Gymnostreptus olivaceus and Plusioporus setiger
(Journal of Advanced Zoology, 2007) [Artigo]The toxicity of Deltamethrin pyrethroid to millipedes Gymnostreptus olivaceus Schubart, 1944 (Spirostreptida, Spirostreptidae) and Plusioporus setiger (Broelemann, 1901) (Spirostreptida, Spirostreptidae), estimated in terms ... -
Lead exposure does not affect baseline and induced innate immunity in quails
(Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, 2022) [Artigo]Lead (Pb) is one of the most common metals found in ecosystems in elevated concentrations derived mainly from anthropogenic activities. Pb toxicity is of special concern in birds due to its capacity for bioaccumulation in ... -
Antarctic fungi applied to textile dye bioremediation
(Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciencias, 2022) [Artigo]Antarctica has one of the most hostile conditions on the planet. The environmental characteristics found in this region favor the development of extremophile microorganisms, which are poorly explored biotechnologically. ... -
Regional hydrogeological prospection for natural mineral water
(Aguas Subterraneas, 2021) [Artigo]This study proposes a model for hydrogeological assessment and prospection of natural mineral water on a regional scale aimed to select potential areas for implementing natural mineral water projects. The following prospective ... -
Precipitation as the main mechanism for Cd(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II) removal from aqueous solutions using natural and activated forms of red mud
(Environmental Advances, 2021) [Artigo]The red mud (RM) has been used as an alternative low-cost adsorbent to remove trace elements, with the adsorption onto sodalite surface described as the main removal mechanism for trace elements. However, recent studies ... -
Metals and metalloids in green turtle hepatic tissue (Chelonia mydas) from Santos Basin, Brazil
(Environmental Research, 2022) [Artigo]Metal and metalloid concentrations in the liver tissue of green turtles (Chelonia mydas) stranded on the Brazilian coast (n = 506) were studied using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and cold vapor atomic ... -
Microbial communities in petroleum-contaminated sites: Structure and metabolisms
(Chemosphere, 2022) [Resenha]Over recent decades, hydrocarbon concentrations have been augmented in soil and water, mainly derived from accidents or operations that input crude oil and petroleum into the environment. Different techniques for remediation ... -
Molecular links between whitesand ecosystems and blackwater formation in the Rio Negro watershed
(Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 2021) [Artigo]Tropical rivers such as the Rio Negro constitute a major portion of the global aquatic flux of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) entering the ocean, but the exact amount, source contributions and fate of terrestrial DOC remain ... -
