The objective of this study was to evaluate the physiological responses in canola seeds and seedlings treated with thiamethoxam and subjected to different salinity levels. Canola seeds of the Diamond cultivar were used, submitted to the following treatments: Test - Control, Trat - Seed treatment with the a.i. thiamethoxam, in which it has a bioactivating function. Sodium chloride (NaCl) and calcium chloride (CaCl2) salts were used to simulate saline stress, with saline potential levels of 0, -0.2, -0.4 and -0.6 MPa. Sowing was carried out in gerbox boxes, containing three sheets of germitest paper, previously moistened with saline solutions corresponding to the saline potential of the treatment. The seeds were kept in a BOD-type germinator, at a constant temperature of 20 °C, under constant photoperiod. The variables analyzed were first germination count, germination, germination speed index, radicle and epicotyl length and seedling dry mass. The saline stress induced by the osmotic potentials of NaCl and CaCl2 significantly decreased the vigor and germination of canola seedlings. Seed treatment with the a.i. thiamethoxam proved to be efficient in reducing the damage caused by salinity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Evaluate the effectiveness of salinization compared to heparinization on the patency of the fully implanted catheter. Integrative literature review. The search was carried out in the National Library of Medicine, Science Direct, Scientific Electronic Library Online and Virtual Health Library databases. When washing the port-a-cath, 10 to 20ml of 0.9% saline solution is used, reaching up to 20 ml for washing; in blocking, 0.9% saline solution is used to saline or heparinized solution, with concentrations of 50 to 100U/ml, reaching up to 500U/ml for heparinization, both with a 1.5 to 5 ml flush. SF stood out by showing security in port-a-cath blocking. The use of a fully implanted catheter in cancer patients proved to be of such importance for the procedures, the studies showed that there is no significant difference between the solutions, suggesting the use of 0.9% saline solution for catheter blocking.

Salinity is one of the limiting factors that negatively affect the germination, emergence, and development of pastures in the lower part of the Lauca - Oruro River sub-basin, reducing the availability of forages for livestock. With the purpose of identifying salinity tolerant forage species, the germination capacity in saline solutions of eight species was evaluated: Agropyron elongatum (Host) P. Beauv., Hordeum muticum J. Presl., Bromus catharticus Vahl., X. Triticosecale Wittmarck , Hordeum vulgare L., Atriplex cristata, Trifolium amabile (L.) Kunth., and Suaeda foliosa Moq. The research was carried out in laboratories of the Faculty of Agricultural and Natural Sciences - Technical University of Oruro; Saline solutions with four concentrations of NaCl per one liter of distilled water were applied to the seeds: 2.56, 5.12, 7.68, and 10.54 g, and control without salinity. The results indicate that X. Triticosecale Wittmarck and H. vulgare have greater tolerance to solutions of extreme salinity and little affected in their germination capacity. The seeds of A. elongatum, B. catharticus and S. foliosa significantly reduce germination, however, they manage to germinate at all salinity levels. The seeds of A. cristata and T. amabile are the most sensitive to saline affectation, germination is significantly reduced at all salinity levels, even at the highest concentration. It is concluded that these species can be used as forage for the use of salinized soils, depending on the maximum tolerance determined.

The aim of this study was to compare cartilage regeneration of the hip in rabbits, with and without the transplantation of autologous mesenchymal stem cells. Thirty rabbits were submitted to chemical induction of osteoarthritis with a 2% colagenase in the right hip. They were divided into 2 groups of 15 animals each: Group 1 (intra-articular application of autologous mesenchymal stem cells) and Group 2 (control - intra-articular application of sterile saline solution). Radiographic and histopathological evaluations were performed at 30, 60 and 90 days after application. The mesenchymal stem cells group (Group 1) showed slight improvement of the quality of the repair tissue, according to the semi-quantitative scale criteria ICRS 1 (International Cartilage Repair Society). The Group 1 (Stem Cells) showed superiority in relation to Group 2, especially in the parameters joint surface, extracellular matrix and cellular distribution, demonstrating that stem cells were beneficial in the treatment of osteoarthritis.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the development of corn crop at different levels of irrigation water salinity in two concentrations of soil organic matter. The experiment was conducted at the Center for Agrarian Sciences of the Federal University of Alagoas. The experimental design adopted was the entirely randomized in factorial scheme 5 x 2, with four replications. The treatments consisted of different levels of electrical conductivity of CEa water (0,5; 1,5; 3,0; 4,5 and 6,0 dS m-1) associated with the presence and absence of organic matter in the soil. The saline solutions were prepared with NaCl and distilled water, using the formula: TSD (g L-1) = 0.64 x CEa. At 40 days after emergence, the plants were collected and analyzed for the number of leaves, plant height, leaf area, shoot dry mass and dry mass of the root system and the relative chlorophyll index of the leaves. It was found that all the variables studied were affected by the increase in salinity levels of irrigation water and that the addition of organic matter in the soil in isolation provided a better development of maize plants.

Introduction: Bucosinusal communications are relatively frequent surgical complications in dental practice. Although several conditions are related to this type of communication, the exodontia of upper posterior teeth presents as the main etiological factor. They are diagnosed through fistulas, which communicate the buccal and sinus cavities, thus allowing the passage of food and other substances into the maxillary sinus, thus providing infectious pictures known as Sinusites. Objective: through the report of a clinical case of buccosalusal fistula, we will focus on the success of the closure of buccomasinal communication with Bichat Adipose Body. Technique report: male patient, 59 years old, leucoderma, with no systemic alterations, who attended the University of the Sacred Heart Postgraduation outpatient clinic reporting as a main complaint the fact of "getting fluids through the nose" during feeding and that this had started after performing a residual root exodon of element 16. It also reported that after the exodontia, an attempt was made to close the buccosinusal fistula through the repositioning of the vestibular flap and no success was achieved. After 45 days of conditioning the maxillary sinus mucosa through irrigations with saline solution and 0.12% chlorhexidine, the patient was proposed and the buccosinusal fistula was closed using the Bichat Adipose Body. Conclusion: Today, in order to achieve the high success rate in the closure of buscossinusal communications, we use the Bichat Adipose Body, because it is a simple procedure and provides satisfactory results for the patient.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the microbiological quality of samples of sugarcane broth marketed in a fair in the State of Alagoas. Seven samples of informally traded sugarcane broth were collected at intervals of fifteen days and taken to the laboratory for analysis. The aseptically collected samples were diluted in 0.1% peptone saline solution, where 25 mL of each sample was diluted in 225 mL of this solution and inoculated into test tubes containing Lauryl Sulfate Triptose (LST) medium and an inverted Durham tube for the Presumptive tests and, subsequently, samples that formed gas were transferred to tubes containing EC medium and Brilliant Green for tests of total and thermotolerant coliforms, respectively. Yeasts were analyzed by means of inoculation in PDA medium and microscopic visualization. The detection of protozoa was done through traps made in PVC tube in Agar-water medium. The soil was analyzed by means of filtration and microscopic observation. All samples had total and thermotolerant coliforms with a maximum count of >2400 MPN/mL. The yeast count showed 8x10-6 UFC. Of the total of 21 samples, only two in the first collection showed protozoa. None of the samples showed dirt. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Most of the oocytes used in reproductive biotechnologies come from ovaries obtained at locations geographically distant from specialized laboratories. Thus, this work evaluated the viability of ovarian follicles in different transport conditions to identify which best suits the success of the treatment. Ovary pigs (32) were obtained from a slaughterhouse, a pair being used as a control group fixed in 10% formaldehyde. The other pairs were immersed in 0.9% saline solution and maintained at temperatures of 4 and 35.5 ° C for periods of 2, 16 and 24 hours. After these times, the ovaries were fixed in 10% formaldehyde for 24 hours and submitted to histological routine with impregnation in paraffin. Sections were analyzed by evaluating the morphology of the antral follicles and analyzed at most 30 follicles per section. After the analysis, it was possible to verify that antral follicles of the ovaries preserved at 4 and 35.5 ° C for a period of 2 hours showed no significant difference in the control group (p> 0.05), as well as the 4 ° C treatments during 16 and 24 hours. However, treatments at 35.5 ° C for 16 and 24 hours showed a significant reduction in the frequency of normal follicles compared to treatments of the same storage period at 4 ° C and the control group (p <0.05). In conclusion, optimal ovary swine storage to make it viable for breeding experiments can be performed at 35.5 ° C for 2 hours or at 4 ° C for 24 hours. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article reports a case of periapical cyst treatment in the mandible using the marsupialization and enucleation technique, followed by rehabilitation with implants. The patient, a 64-year-old man, presented with a unilocular radiolucent lesion measuring 2.5cm x 1.5cm in the region of tooth 47. An incisional biopsy was performed for histopathological diagnosis, confirming the hypothesis of a periapical cyst. During the surgery, marsupialization was performed and the patient was instructed to perform daily irrigations with saline solution and 0.12% chlorhexidine. After 12 months, bone repair and lesion reduction were observed, allowing for enucleation and implant placement. It is concluded that the marsupialization technique associated with enucleation can be a conservative treatment option for certain odontogenic cysts. [Extracted from the article]

This study aimed to analyze the effect of a saline solution on growth and chemical composition of Atriplex nummularia. These species seedlings were planted in the Garden of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. Chemical characterization was performed using the Ion Chromatography (IC) and Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The results of this analysis highlighted the diversity of anions and cations absorbed by the plant during its evolutionary process. Based on this study it was concluded that the Atriplex could be used as a source of absorbing salts from soils contaminated by effluents from industrial processes in which the saline water has as an end product of their processes.
