ABSTRACT

Objective@#To establish analytical method for the determination of vanadium ( V ), chromium ( Cr ), nickel ( Ni ), selenium ( Se ) and arsenic ( As ) in calcium based toothpastes by microwave digestion-inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry ( ICP-MS/MS ).@*Methods@#The 21 calcium based toothpaste samples from supermarkets and shops in the urban areas of Hangzhou were digested by 6 mL HNO3 and 1 mL H2O2 in microwave digestion system. Then He-SQ mode and O2-MS/MS mode of ICP-MS/MS were respectively used for the determination of Ni and V, Cr, Se, As. Indium ( In ) was used as internal standard for calibration. @*Results@# Good linear relationships were obtained for these five elements from 1.0 to 32.0 μg/L, with the correlation coefficients ranged from 0.999 3 to 1.000 0. The detection limits of the method ranged from 0.000 25 to 0.006 08 mg/kg. The recovery rates of standard spiking were 80.7%-105.7% when set at 0.4, 0.8 and 1.6 mg/kg, the recovery of standard reference material was 102.2%, and the relative standard deviations were 2.6%-4.8%. The concentrations of V, Cr, Ni, Se and As in 21 calcium based toothpaste samples were 0.024-1.935 mg/kg, 0.085-5.759 mg/kg, 0.090-3.673 mg/kg, <0.002 72-0.016 mg/kg and <0.006 08-0.321 mg/kg.@*Conclusion@#Microwave digestion-ICP-MS/MS can effectively reduce the interferences of polyatomic ions and doubly charged ions from the matrix, which is suitable for the determination of V, Cr, Ni, Se and As in calcium based toothpaste.

ABSTRACT

This study aimed to measure the concentrations of minerals in different regions and pigmentation of horses’ hooves, mules and donkeys. A total of 20 Crioulo horses, 20 mules and 20 Pega donkeys were used. They formed two groups: pigmented (dark) or non-pigmented (bright) hooves. All animals were unshod and with adequate foot conformation. Females were nonpregnant and without foal and no animals were in training. Samples were collected from the hooves of all limbs in the regions of wall, sole and frog. The concentrations of calcium, magnesium, copper, iron and zinc were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry; sodium and potassium concentrations were determined by atomic emission spectrophotometry. Among the groups it was observed that the wall, sole and frog of donkeys’ hooves presented higher concentrations of sodium and calcium and with the exception of the frog that also obtained higher levels of copper in this species. Mules had lower concentrations of zinc in the wall and the horses had higher concentrations of potassium and zinc in the sole and higher magnesium in the frog and wall. There was no difference (P>0.05) in concentrations regarding the pigmentation of the hooves. The different regions of the hooves in each group presented similar concentrations of minerals and it was regardless of the pigmentation. The mineral concentrations may be related to desirable functional properties of the donkeys’ hooves. Pigmented and non-pigmented hooves have similar concentrations of minerals.


O objetivo desse trabalho foi mensurar os teores de minerais nas diferentes regiões e pigmentações dos cascos de equinos, muares e asininos. Utilizaram-se 20 equinos da raça Crioula, 20 muares e 20 asininos da raça Pêga. Formaram-se dois grupos conforme os cascos pigmentados (escuros) e não pigmentados (claros). Todos os animais estavam desferrados e com adequada conformação podal e as fêmeas estavam não gestantes e sem potro ao pé e nenhum animal estava em treinamento. Amostras foram coletadas dos cascos de todos os membros nas regiões de parede, sola e ranilha. As concentrações de cálcio, magnésio, cobre, ferro e zinco foram determinadas por espectrofotometria de absorção atômica e as concentrações de sódio e potássio foram determinadas por espectrofotometria de emissão atômica. Entre os grupos observou-se que a parede, sola e ranilha nos asininos apresentaram maiores valores de sódio e cálcio e, exceto para a ranilha, também obteve-se maiores teores de cobre nesta espécie. Os muares apresentaram menores teores de zinco na parede e, os equinos, maiores teores de potássio e zinco na sola e ranilha e de magnésio na ranilha e parede. Não houve diferença (P>0,05) nos teores dos minerais quanto à pigmentação dos cascos. As diferentes regiões dos cascos em cada grupo apresentaram teores similares de minerais e este independeu da pigmentação. As variações dos teores de minerais entre os grupos podem estar relacionados a propriedades funcionais desejáveis dos cascos dos asininos. Cascos pigmentados e não pigmentados apresentam teores similares dos minerais.

ABSTRACT

A doença renal crônica é o resultado de lesões progressivas irreversíveis. As principais causas desse quadro são a hipertensão e a diabetes. O tratamento de hemodiálise aumentou significantemente a expectativa de vida desses pacientes, que consomem individualmente um volume de água que varia entre 15.000 a 30.000 litros por ano. Até o inicio da década de 1970, a água indicada para a hemodiálise era aquela que atendia aos critérios de potabilidade. Isso levou a uma série de incidentes devido à presença de alguns elementos inorgânicos tóxicos. A presente revisão discute os efeitos deletérios em pacientes renais dos elementos tóxicos inorgânicos, em especial:o alumínio, arsênio, bismuto, cádmio, cálcio, o chumbo, cloro, cobre, flúor, magnésio, mercúrio, prata, sódio, potássio, e o zinco. Esses elementos inorgânicos foram escolhidos por serem comumente encontrados na água e serem relevantes do ponto de vista da saúde humana. Os pacientes com doença renal em estágios avançados tem maior risco de contrair doenças como câncer, doenças cardiovasculares, anemia, incremento da falência renal, doenças ósseas, alterações no metabolismo da glicose e aumento da resistência dos tecidos à insulina, distúrbios de memória, confusão mental, depressão do sistema imunológico, disfunções enzimáticas, entre outras. A literatura demonstra ainda uma grande carência de estudos relativos à exposição a estes elementos por populações em tratamento de diálise.


The chronic renal disease is the result of irreversible gradual injuries. The main causes of this illness are the hypertension and diabetes. The use of hemodialysis significantly increased the life expectancy of these patients, who individually consume a volume of water that varies between 15,000 and 30,000 liters per year. Until the beginningof 1970?s, the water indicated for hemodialysis was the same considered safe for drinking, which caused a series of incidents involving water contamination with toxic inorganic elements. This revision covers the deleterious effects of toxic inorganic elements, especially the following ones: aluminum, arsenic, bismuth, cadmium, calcium, chlorine, copper, fluorine, magnesium, mercury, silver, sodium, potassium, lead, and zinc. These eleents have been chosen because they are usually found in water and are relevant from the human health point of view. The patients with renal illness atadvanced stage have greater risk to contract illnesses such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, anemia, increase in renal damage, bone diseases, alterations in the metabolism of glucose and increase of tissue resistance to insulin, memory disturbances, mental confusion, impairment of immune system, enzymatic dysfunction, and others. The literature shows very few studies about the effects of these compounds in populations in hemodialys treatment.

ABSTRACT

The soil and other substrates such as mushroom compounds are the main sources of new Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) isolates for Integrated Pest Management programs. This study describes the relationship between chemical properties of the soil (pH, OM, P3+, K1+, Ca2+, Mg2+, H1++Al3+, B3+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Mn2+ and Zn2+) and the occurrence of Bt in Brazil. A total of 1,197 bacterial colonies were obtained, being 512 of them identified as Bt. The Bt index (iBt), which is the relation between Bt colonies and bacterial counts ranged from 0.18 to 0.86. The iBt may be expressed with the formula: iBt= -0.4 + 0.6Ca2+ + 0.07Cu2+ + 0.009Fe2+ - 0.53Mg2+ -0.12Mn2+ + 1.26Zn2+. A cluster of samples with fewer colonies and a high negative correlation (antagonism) between Mn2+ and Ca2+; Mg2+ and Ca2+; Mg2+ and Zn2+; Mn2+ and Zn2+ and a high positive correlation (synergism) between Mn2+ and Mg2+; Zn2+ and Ca2+ was observed. The relationship between these elements and their effect on the Bt presence are discussed.


O solo e outros substratos, como restos vegetais são as principais fontes de obtenção de isolados de Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) para programas de Manejo Integrado de Pragas. Este estudo descreve uma investigação sobre a relação entre algumas propriedades químicas do solo (pH, MO, P3+, K1+, Ca2+, Mg2+, H1+ + Al3+, B3+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Mn2+ e Zn2+) e a ocorrência de Bt em solos do Brasil. Entre 1197 colônias bacterianas, 512 foram identificados como Bt. O índice de Bt (iBt), que é a relação entre o número de colônias de Bt e de colônias bacterianas, variou de 0,18 a 0,86. Os dados obtidos mostraram que o iBt pode ser representado pelo iBt da fórmula = -0,.4 + 0,6Ca2+ + 0,07Cu2+ + 0,009Fe2+ - 0,53Mg2+ -0,12Mn2+ + 1,26Zn2+. Observou-se o agrupamento das amostras com poucas colônias; uma correlação negativa elevada (antagonismo) entre Mn2+ e Ca2+, Mg2+ e Ca2+, Mg2+ e Zn2+, Mn2+ e Zn2+; uma correlação positiva elevada (sinergismo) entre Mn2+ e Mg2+, Zn2+ e Ca2+. A relação entre esses elementos e o efeito dessa relação na presença de Bt são discutidos.
