Ácidos graxos poli-insaturados na regulação das concentrações séricas de triglicerídeos e ácidos graxos não esterificados em três gerações de ratos wistar.

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito de dietas contendo AGPIs ômega-3 e ômega-6 nas concentrações séricas de ácidos graxos não esterificados (AGNE) e triglicerídeos (TG), no período pré e pós-parto de ratas Wistar, ao longo de três gerações

First detections of extragalactic SO2, NS and NO

We report the first detections of SO_2, NS and NO in an extragalactic source, the nucleus of the starburst galaxy NGC 253. Five SO_2 transitions, three groups of hyperfine components of NO and five of NS were detected. All three species show large abundances averaged over the inner 200 pc of NGC 253. With a relative abundance of a few 10^-7, the emission of the NO molecule is similar or even larger than that found in Galactic star forming regions. The derived relative molecular abundances for each molecule have been compared with those of prototypical Galactic molecular clouds. These results seem to confirm that large scale shocks dominate the chemistry of these molecules in the nucleus of NGC 253, ruling out a chemistry dominated by PDRs for the bulk of the gas.Comment: Accepted by A&A, 4 pages, 6 figure

Broadband velocity modulation spectroscopy of HfF^+: towards a measurement of the electron electric dipole moment

Precision spectroscopy of trapped HfF^+ will be used in a search for the permanent electric dipole moment of the electron (eEDM). While this dipole moment has yet to be observed, various extensions to the standard model of particle physics (such as supersymmetry) predict values that are close to the current limit. We present extensive survey spectroscopy of 19 bands covering nearly 5000 cm^(-1) using both frequency-comb and single-frequency laser velocity-modulation spectroscopy. We obtain high-precision rovibrational constants for eight electronic states including those that will be necessary for state preparation and readout in an actual eEDM experiment.Comment: 13 pages, 7 figures, 3 table

The importance of non-LTE models for the interpretation of observations of interstellar NO

Context. The ALMA and Herschel missions promise to deliver data of high spatial and spectral resolution at far-infrared and submillimeter wavelengths. Modeling these data will require the knowledge of accurate radiative and collisional rates for species of astrophysical interest. Aims. We calculate the rotational excitation rate coefficients of NO in collisions with He and check the validity of the LTE approach in interpreting observations of rotational lines of NO. Methods. State-to-state rate coefficients between the 360 lowest hyperfine levels of NO were calculated using the M(J) randomizing limit method for temperatures from 10 K to 350 K. We performed calculations of the excitation of NO using the new rate coefficients using a large velocity gradient (LVG) radiative transfer code. Results. The critical densities of the lines are found to be at greater than or similar to 10(15) cm(-3). The low dipole moment of NO ensures that the line emission is optically thin up to column densities of similar to 10(15) cm(-2). Lines in the ground (Omega = 1/2) state are readily detectable in typical conditions (N(NO) = 10(13) cm(-2); T = 10-30 K), whereas lines in the excited Omega = 3/2 state are observed only in warm (T > 50 K) regions with higher column densities (N(NO) = 10(14) cm(-2)). Line ratios of NO may well be used to constrain the ambient temperature and/or density. Conclusions. The new rate coefficients will help significantly in interpreting NO emission lines observed with current and future telescopes, and enable this molecule to become a powerful astrophysical tool

Pathogenicity of Aphelenchoides besseyi populations from rice (Oryza sativa) to soybean (Glycine max) plants.

The occurrence of green stem disturbance (Soja Louca II) on soybean crops was first detected in the centralnorth region of Brazil about fifteen years ago. However, the disease etiology was associated with Aphelenchoides besseyi only in 2017
