Climate projections of chill hours and implications for olive cultivation in Minas Gerais, Brazil by Fabrina Bolzan Martins (7141982)

“…The present climate data were obtained from 47 conventional weather stations, and the future climate data were obtained from three Earth system models (IPSL-CM5A-LR, MRI-CGCM3, and MIROC5). Future projections point to a decrease in the suitable areas for olive crop cultivation, particularly under representative concentration pathway (RCP) 8.5 and for olive cultivars with a high-chilling requirement (Tb=7.0ºC). …”

Compound 1294 interferes in host cell invasion. by Kayode K. Ojo (353587)

“…Cultures were then incubated for an additional 60 min before β-galactosidase activity was measured. There was a significant decrease in β-galactosidase activity (t-test; p<0.001) when compound 1294 was added at the beginning of infection (1294 0′), but not when the compound was added at later timepoints, and no changes occurred when 1294 was added after the infection phase (1294 60′ post-infection. …”

ZnS Nanocrystals as an Additive for Gamma-Irradiated Poly (Vinyl Chloride) by Roberta Cristina da Silva (4829853)

“…It was demonstrated that the addition of ZnS nanocrystals imparted molecular protection to the polymer matrix while improving flexibility, by decreasing the Young Modulus of PVC films. These results suggest the use of sonochemically synthesized ZnS nanocrystals as a new additive for radiation-grade PVC materials.…”
