Deep root function in soil water dynamics in cerrado savannas of central Brazil
Rafael S. Oliveira,Lídia Mara Aguiar Bezerra,Eric A. Davidson,Flávia Carmo Horta Pinto,Carlos A. Klink,D. C. Nepstad,AB Moreira +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that deep-rooted plants may contribute significantly to the water balance of cerrado ecosystems, and that the hydrological cycle of this biome could change as woody vegetation is replaced by exotic grasses and agricultural crops.
The Lavrados of Roraima: Biodiversity and Conservation of Brazil's Amazonian Savannas
TL;DR: The Savannas of Roraima are located in the far northern portion of the Brazilian Amazon and are part of the “Savanna of Guyana” ecoregion of the Amazonian Biome as discussed by the authors.

Montmorillonite clay-based polyurethane nanocomposite as local triamcinolone acetonide delivery system
Flávia Carmo Horta Pinto,Armando Silva-Cunha,Gerson Antônio Pianetti,Eliane Ayres,Rodrigo Lambert Oréfice,Gisele Rodrigues Da Silva +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the triamcinolone acetonide (TA), an important corticoid drug, was dispersed into the nanocomposite followed by a drying step to produce an implantable drug delivery system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and Evaluation of Sustained-Release Etoposide-Loaded Poly(ε-Caprolactone) Implants
