Este estudo teve por objetivo verificar através de chorume líquido produzido por composteira alternativa uso como biofertilizante no desenvolvimento e análises de parâmetros de plantas de feijoeiro (Phaseolus vulgaris) cv. BRS FC 402. O chorume foi preparado a partir de resíduos orgânicos de hortaliças, leguminosas e foliares. Diferentes doses de chorume foram aplicadas por pulverização após a germinação do feijoeiro totalizando 3 aplicações com intervalos de 15 dias. Após aplicações, foram analisados parâmetros vegetativos para diâmetro de caule, número de folhas, altura de planta, comprimento raiz, número de vagens, massa fresca e massa seca em P. vulgaris. Os resultados demonstram que não houve incremento significativo entre as diferentes dosagens de chorume em comparação com a testemunha para todos os parâmetros vegetativos analisados. Ainda, foi observado que o diâmetro de caule e número de folhas é prejudicado em todas as concentrações de chorume aplicadas. Este foi um estudo piloto para esse cv. de Phaseolus vulgaris, estudos futuros deverão ser realizados avaliando características físico-químicas do solo e do chorume, sua influência sobre a disposição de minerais, influência do pH estabilidado e ácido in natura e dosagens inferiores e superiores as usuais.

Disease severity was found to depend on the level of fragmentation and concentration. Inoculation of Gros Michel plantlets with mycelia fragmented for 3 minutes resulted in significantly higher levels of disease severity (AUDPC) than fragmentation for 1 minute for all the isolates. For both times of fragmentation, AUDPC increased with concentration. The highest and lowest AUDPCs for both times of fragmentation were achieved with concentrations of 15 and 5 mg mL-1, respectively. Overall, all the three isolates demonstrated high levels of virulence, with Mak 01 causing the highest severity (AUDPC - 98.5) when compared to Mak 02 (AUDPC - 93.5) and Kaw 10 (AUDPC - 92.2) for 3-minute fragmentation and concentration of 15 mg mL-1.

A randomized design was used with four treatments and four experimental units with one bird each, nine of which were measured in time. The ingredients used were albumin, starch, cellulose, and soybean oil. Suspensions containing barium sulfate and saline were prepared, except for soybean oil. For each bird, 2.5 mL of the suspension was administered directly to the crop. Dual-energy absorptiometry (DEXA) was used to quantify the passage of food. The birds were sedated and maintained under inhalation anesthesia during the scan. Measurements were taken at intervals of 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 24 h. The variables identified were passage time, first quality, and the average time of each variable. Based on these results, the ingredients may show differences in dynamic passing on the Japanese quail GIT. The duration of the first attempt was 32 min, ranging from 21 to 44 min. The average time value of food choice was close to 10.8 h and varied according to the ingredient from 8.45–12.16 h. Among the variables, soybean oil presented values that denote a fast passage in the GIT, while albumin presented values that denote a slower passage.

Patients submitted to external beam radiation therapy of head and neck may suffer anatomical changes during the course of treatment. Frequent causes of such variations are the reduction of tumor volume, the progression of the disease during the course of radiotherapy, the loss of weight, and other causes. The conventional treatments are made of 33 to 35 fractions. Thus, the interval of time between the treatment planning computed tomography (CT) and the conclusion of the treatment surpasses two months. Monitoring significant anatomical variations and making adjustments to the plans of radiotherapy during the course of radiotherapy could be a relevant strategy to achieve the objectives proposed for the treatments. The objective of this study was to analyze how the variations in volume of interest, both target structures and healthy tissues could affect the dose distribution in the patient in radiation therapy treatment of head and neck cancer. This analysis will be made through investigation of metrics dose-volume, volumetric variations of target structures, as well as the parotid glands, patient thickness in the cervical region, image fusion, and isodose surfaces plotted on the CTs. The timing to Replan head and neck cancer appears to be around the 15th fraction of treatment, however a study with a larger number of patients is necessary. In case of adaptive radiotherapy, reduction of mean dose in the ipsilateral parotid was observed in 100% of patients, while in the contralateral parotid reduction was observed in 80% of patients. The decision to replan head and neck cancer has benefit in the spinal cord and brainstem since this study showed reduction in the maximum dose in 70% of patients in case of treatment replan. Decrease of dose including 95% of volume and minimum dose in the PTV (mean percentage decrease observed was 7.71%) was observed in case of no treatment replan. Increase in the maximum dose in the PTV was observed, for which the mean percentage increase observed was 2.42%.
