Hidroquímica na Amazônia Central. II. Flutuações no fluxo de saída de nitrogênio e fósforo em dois ecossistemas na Amazônia ()

Waters analyses were done of four "igarapes", on which two of them are dryer a Campina\'s area in the Central Amazonia, third and fourth drying a "terra firme" of forest located along of the BR-174 Road. The study had been done during a whole year, in order to know the lost on a cycle of essencial nutrients by Campina ecosystem, in comparison with a "terra firme". The data permited to verify that there is a curve for each "igarapé", in a anual cycle, and that although the lost can be considerable, N and P are not limitant factors for the Campina ecosystem, because these elements are given by died organic matter (litter), droped on the soil from vegetables.Foram feitas análises de água de quatro igarapés, dos quais dois drenam uma área de campina na Amazônia Central, o terceiro e o quarto drenando "terra firme de floresta", situados ao longo da rodovia BR-174. O estudo foi feito durante um ano ininterrupto, com a finalidade de conhecer o fluxo de saída de nutrientes essenciais do ecossistema da campina em comparação com a floresta de terra firme. Os dados permitem verificar que existe uma curva para cada igarapé, em um ciclo anual, e que apesar das perdas N e P não constituem fatores limitantes para o ecossistema da campina visto que esses elementos são fornecidos pela manta orgânica morta, que é depositada no solo pelos vegetais, e também pela lixiviação de troncos e folhas e ainda pelas chuvas

Quadrupole Moment Measurements of TSD1 and TSD2 Bands in \u3csup\u3e167\u3c/sup\u3eLu

The triaxial strongly deformed (TSD) bands in 167Lu were populated by the 123Sb(48Ca, 4n) reaction with a beam energy of 203 MeV. Gamma rays, requiring fivefold or more in prompt coincidence, were detected with the Gammasphere spectrometer. Of particular interests are TSD bands 1 and 2 which have previously been interpreted as zero phonon and one phonon wobbling bands, respectively. Using the Doppler shift attenuation method (DSAM), a preliminary transition quadrupole moment of 6.9+0.3−0.3 eb was extracted for the TSD1 band. Data analysis continues for TSD2 which is considerably more weakly populated

Spectroscopy around 36^{36}Ca

Expérience GANILInternational audienceAn experiment was performed to study excited states in neutron-deficient nuclei around Ca. A one-neutron knockout reaction was used to produce $^{36}$Ca ions from a $^{37}$Ca secondary beam, and in-beam $\gamma$-rays were measured. The $2^+$ energy in $^{36}$Ca is compared to the mirror nucleus $^{36}$S to deduce information on the isospin dependence of the nuclear force near the proton drip line. The energy of the first excited $2^+$ state in $^{36}$Ca and the cross section for the 1-neutron knock-out reaction from $^{37}$Ca at $\sim$ 45 · AMeV were obtained. Furthermore, for two other $T_z$ = −2 nuclei, $^{28}$S and $^{32}$Ar, the de-excitation of the first $2^+$ state has been observed

Evidence for octupole vibration in the triaxial superdeformed well of Lu164

High-spin states in Lu164 were populated in the Sb121(Ca48,5n) reaction at 215 MeV and γ-ray coincidences were measured with the Gammasphere spectrometer. Through this experiment the eight known triaxial superdeformed bands in Lu164 could be confirmed. Some of these bands were extended to higher as well as to lower spins. Evidence is reported for the first time for weak ΔI=1,E1 transitions linking TSD3 and TSD1. This observation may imply coupling to octupole vibrational degrees of freedom. The decay mechanism is different from the one observed in the neighboring even-N isotopes, which exhibit wobbling excitations built on the πi13/2 structure with E2(M1),ΔI=1 interband decay. An additional sequence decaying at high spin into TSD1 was observed up to Iπ=(50-). This band has a constant dynamic moment of inertia of ∼70 2MeV-1 and an alignment that is ∼2 larger than that found for TSD1. A revision of the assumed spin-parity-assignment of TSD2 is based on the observed decay-out to normal-deformed structures. The parity and signature quantum numbers of TSD2 are now firmly assigned as (π,α)=(+,0), in disagreement with the former assignment of (π,α)=(-,1), which was based on the assumption that TSD2 is the signature partner of TSD1. TSD1 and TSD2 show an alignment gain at ω∼0.67 and 0.60 MeV, respectively. In TSD1 the involvement of the j15/2 neutron orbital is suggested to be responsible for the high-frequency crossing

Oral intake of Lactobacillus pentosus strain b240 accelerates salivary immunoglobulin A secretion in the elderly: A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Immunoglobulin A (IgA) secretion in saliva decreases with age and may be the cause of increased vulnerability of the elderly to respiratory infections. The effect of oral intake of lactic acid bacteria on salivary secretory IgA (SIgA) in the elderly has not been reported. The objective of this study was to demonstrate the acceleration of salivary SIgA secretion by oral intake of <it>Lactobacillus pentosus </it>strain b240 (b240) in the elderly.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>A total of 80 healthy elderly individuals were randomly allocated to either an intervention (i.e., b240) or a control (i.e., placebo) group. The elderly individuals in the b240 group were given a sterile water beverage (125 mL) containing heat-killed b240 (4 × 10⁹cells), while those in the placebo group were given only a sterile water beverage (125 mL); both groups received their respective beverages once daily for 12 weeks. Saliva was collected before initiation of the study and every 2 weeks thereafter. Saliva flow rate and SIgA concentration were determined, and the SIgA secretion rate was calculated. The mean salivary SIgA secretion rate in the b240 group steadily increased until week 4 (exhibiting a 20% elevation relative to that at week 0), and then remained stable until week 12. Changes in SIgA secretion rate over the intervention period were significantly greater in the b240 group than in the placebo group. The treatment groups exhibited no significant differences in adverse events.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>Oral intake of <it>L. pentosus </it>strain b240 for 12 weeks significantly accelerated salivary SIgA secretion, thereby indicating its potential utility in the improvement of mucosal immunity and resistance against infection in the elderly.</p
