Technological hazard assessments are extremely rare in Brazil, despite their importance for planning. Aquatic systems are of particular concern, since they are the endpoint of every process occurring in the watershed, including technological disasters. Thus, our goal is to map the technological hazard vulnerability in lagoon systems though a geographic information systems (GIS) model. The technological hazard vulnerability model consists of the spatial overlapping of technological pressure and fragility, having environmental systems as spatial units. The methodology was applied to the lagoon systems of the Rio Grande do Sul State, Southern Brazil, as a case study. The very high vulnerability of the Northern Guaíba Lake is due to the high concentration of technological infrastructures combined with high fragilities of wetland systems. In the Patos Lagoon Estuary, highly vulnerable systems consist mostly in shallow waters. The Mirim Lagoon was less vulnerable compared to other systems, due to a much smaller occurrence of elements of technological pressure. The proposed methodology allowed for the identification of environmental systems particularly vulnerable to technological hazards, where management efforts must be more intense. The results were used for the Ecological-Economic Zoning of the Rio Grande do Sul, as well as to revise the water quality framework of the Patos Lagoon estuary, currently underway.

Distortion/interaction models show that minimizing geometric distortion at the zinc complex during the rate-limiting nucleophilic substitution step controls the mechanistic preference for OH over Cl transfer with HOCl and the chemoselectivity for HOCl over H2 O2 .An unprecedented bird-nest high-nuclear molybdenum(V) cobalto-phosphate nanosized wheel modified by imidazole (im) and pyridine (py), [H55 (Mo24 O48 )(Co4 O)2 Co16 (PO4 )42 (py)6 (EtOH)2 (H2 O)11 ]- @[(Him)2 (Hpy)](N-Et-py)(H2 PO4 )(py)7 (EtOH)⋅12 H2 O (1), has been successfully synthesized by self-assembly. The anionic huge wheel consists of two rare Co4 O squares, four Co4 tetramers, four Mo4 tetramers and four Mo2 dimers, linked by bridging oxygen atoms and [PO4 ] groups and encloses two imidazolium cations and a protonated pyridium for charge balance. Surprisingly, 1 represents the first twisted wheel-shaped cluster with a record high-nuclear molybdenum(V) cobalto-phosphate. The delocalized electron effects of the cluster are enhanced with the help of coordinated py ligands, which endows 1 with an excellent third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) response. Additionally, 1 also shows a better photocatalytic water oxidation activity than Co(NO3 )2 with the O2 production of 205 μmol during 6 h in the absence of the [Ru(bpy)3 ]2+ photosensitizer.In vitro metabolic stability assays using rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) isolated hepatocytes (RT-HEP) or hepatic S9 fractions (RT-S9) were introduced to provide biotransformation rate data for the assessment of chemical bioaccumulation in fish. Raltitrexed supplier explored the suitability of the RT-HEP and RT-S9 assays for difficult test chemicals, and the in vitro-based predictions were compared to in silico-based predictions and in vivo-measured bioconcentration factors (BCFs). The results show that volatile or reactive chemicals can be tested with minor modifications of the in vitro protocols. For hydrophobic chemicals, a passive dosing technique was developed. Finally, a design-of-experiment approach was used to identify optimal in vitro assay conditions. The modified assay protocols were applied to 10 fragrances with diverse physicochemical properties. The in vitro intrinsic clearance rates were higher in the S9 than in the hepatocyte assay, but the in vitro-in vivo (IVIV) predictions were comparable between the 2 assays. The IVIV predictions classified the test chemicals as nonbioaccumulative (BCF less then 2000), which was in agreement with the in vivo data but in contrast to the in silico-based predictions. The findings from the present study provide strong evidence that the RT-HEP and RT-S9 assays can provide reliable estimates of in vivo biotransformation rates for test chemicals with difficult physicochemical properties.

Fifty endodontically treated mandibular first molar teeth were divided into five groups (n = 10). Endocrowns were obtained from lithium disilicate glass ceramic ingots by heat-press technique (Group e.max Press GEP), and from feldspathic blocks (Group Cerec GC), polymer infiltrated ceramic network blocks (Group Enamic GE), lithium disilicate glass ceramic blocks (Group e.max CAD GEC), and zirconia-reinforced glass ceramic blocks (Group Suprinity GS) by CAD/CAM technique. After thermocycling, marginal adaptation was evaluated under scanning electron microscope at ×200 magnification. #link# The specimens' fracture strengths were tested in universal test machine, and fracture types were evaluated. Statistical analyses were performed with Kruskal-Wallis test. The highest marginal gap value was found in GEP, but no significant differences were determined among the other four groups (p > .05). Significant differences were observed among the groups in terms of fracture strength (p = .019). The fracture strength values of GEC were significantly higher than GE, GC, and GS (p .05). CAD/CAM endocrowns showed better marginal adaptation than heat-pressed endocrowns. Clinically acceptable marginal gaps were seen in both endocrown types. Both CAD/CAM and heat-pressed lithium disilicate glass ceramic endocrowns showed higher fracture strength.Early non-chromosome-related missed abortion (MA) is commonly associated with an altered immunological environment during pregnancy. Human decidual natural killer (dNK) cells, the most abundant lymphocyte population within the first-trimester maternal-fetal interface, are vital maternal regulators of immune tolerance mediating successful embryo implantation and placentation. Previous studies have shown that dNK cells may play a role in MA. However, the gene expression status and specific altered manifestations of dNK cells in patients with early MA remain largely unknown. Here, we show that MA dNK cells have distinct mRNA and lncRNA expression profiles through RNA sequencing, with a total of 276 mRNAs and 67 lncRNAs being differentially expressed compared with controls. Protein-protein interaction analysis of differentially expressed mRNAs was performed to identify hub genes and key modules. An lncRNA-mRNA regulatory network characterized by the small-world property was constructed to reveal the regulation of mRNA transcription by differential hub lncRNAs.
