Identificação e clonagem de promotores raiz-específicos de eucalipto.
A utilização de promotores tecido - específicos é uma das principais estratégias para direcionar a expres são de transgenes a determinados órgãos ou tipos celulares . Por isso, o objetivo deste trabalho foi a clonagem de promotores raiz - específicos , a partir de dados de RNA - Seq obtidos de bibliotecas de raiz, xilema e folha de eucalipto. Dois genes com padrão d e expressão preferencial em raiz foram inicialmente selecionados para isolamento da região promotora. Fragmentos de 1kb foram clonados em vetor binário pCAMBIA2301, fusionados ao gene repórter da beta - glucuronidase (GUS) , para transformação de Populus trem ula x Populus alba via Agrobacterium tumefaciens .Edição dos anais do 3º Simpósio de Bioquímica e Biotecnologia, 2013.

Light Element Abundances From z=0 To z=5
Plausible ratios of deuterium to hydrogen D/H as a function of metallicity,
time, and redshift are investigated. Guided by the heavy element abundance
patterns observed locally in Galactic dwarf stars and at large redshift in
quasi-stellar object absorption line systems, empirical evolution of the
relative abundance ratios Li/D, B/D, N/D, O/D, and F/D for QSO absorption line
systems are given for the possible evolutionary patterns in D/H. Shortened

Flame made ceria supported noble metal catalysts for efficient H₂ production via the water gas shift reaction
Rh/ceria catalysts were synthesized by flame spray pyrolysis for high temperature water gas shift (WGS) reactions. These catalysts show a high specific surface area due to a high degree of nanocrystallinity. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) unraveled the formation of small Rh particles under WGS reaction conditions. The catalytic activity was examined at atmospheric pressure by measuring CO conversion as a function of temperature. Some methane formation was observed above 310 °C
Background discrimination capabilities of a heat and ionization germanium cryogenic detector
The discrimination capabilities of a 70 g heat and ionization Ge bolometer
are studied. This first prototype has been used by the EDELWEISS Dark Matter
experiment, installed in the Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane, for direct
detection of WIMPs. Gamma and neutron calibrations demonstrate that this type
of detector is able to reject more than 99.6% of the background while retaining
95% of the signal, provided that the background events distribution is not
biased towards the surface of the Ge crystal. However, the 1.17 kg.day of data
taken in a relatively important radioactive environment show an extra
population slightly overlapping the signal. This background is likely due to
interactions of low energy photons or electrons near the surface of the
crystal, and is somewhat reduced by applying a higher charge-collecting inverse
bias voltage (-6 V instead of -2 V) to the Ge diode. Despite this
contamination, more than 98% of the background can be rejected while retaining
50% of the signal. This yields a conservative upper limit of 0.7
event.day^{-1}.kg^{-1}.keV^{-1}_{recoil} at 90% confidence level in the 15-45
keV recoil energy interval; the present sensitivity appears to be limited by
the fast ambient neutrons. Upgrades in progress on the installation are
summarized.Comment: Submitted to Astroparticle Physics, 14 page
