Reducing social inequalities in the oral health of an adult population by Manoelito Ferreira SILVA JUNIOR (8303886)

“…Although the occurrence of oral disease did not decrease over the study period (4 years), there was a reduction in inequality among lower social classes in regard to presence of tooth decay and oral health impact on self-perceived quality of life between 2011 and 2015 (p < 0.05). …”

Improvement of the viability of probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus) by multilayer encapsulation by Maria Fernanda da Silveira Cáceres de Menezes (7290539)

“…Exposure to different pHs, simulating passage through the gastrointestinal tract, showed that treatment of the microcapsules with only pectin (LA/P0) and with one and two layers of whey protein (treatments LA/P1 and LA/P3, respectively), were able to protect Lactobacillus acidophilus , with microcapsules increasing the release of probiotics from the stomach into the intestines. Free cells showed a decrease in their counts over the course of the simulated gastrointestinal system. …”

Table_2_Effect of Environmental Stress on the Nutrient Stoichiometry of the Clonal Plant Phragmites australis in Inland Riparian Wetlands of Northwest China.DOCX by Yi Zhou (2723)

“…In this manuscript, we studied the clonal plant Phragmites australis in an inland riparian wetland of Northwest China and compared its nutrient distribution and stoichiometry trade-offs as well as its responses to soil environmental factors in three different environments, namely, a wetland, a salt marsh, and a desert. We found that (1) P. australis could adapt to heterogeneous environments by changing its nutrient allocation strategies, as evidenced by the significant decrease in N and P concentrations, and significant increase in whole-plant C:P and N:P ratios from the wetland to the desert habitats. (2) P. australis adapted to stressful environments by changing its nutrient allocation patterns among different modules, showing a greater tendency to invest N and P in underground modules (rhizomes and roots) and an increase in the utilization efficiency of N and P in the leaves, and stems as environmental stress increased. (3) The C-N, C-P, and N:P-C in the whole plant and in each module showed significant anisotropic growth relationships in the three habitats (P < 0.05). (4) Soil water, pH and salt were the main factors limiting nutrient stoichiometry. …”

Influence of corrosion and alternating cyclic stresses on fatigue life of FE 50010 and FE 50007 nodular cast irons by Crisleide Graciema Izauro da Silva (10471660)

“…However, in the last years the FE 50007 nodular cast iron is being replaced by the FE 50010 nodular cast iron because of its greater ductility. The ductility leads to a decrease in hardness, favoring the machining and, consequently, having a lower final cost of production. …”

Countercations and Solvent Influence CO₂ Reduction to Oxalate by Chalcogen-Bridged Tricopper Cyclophanates by Brian J. Cook (5125262)

“…The <i>k</i>_obs values are dependent on the countercation and solvent (e.g., <i>k</i>_obs is greater for [K­(18-crown-6)]⁺ vs (Ph₃P)₂N⁺, and there is a 20-fold decrease in <i>k</i>_obs in THF vs DMF). …”
