TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the possibility of obtaining isotopic information via the monitoring of the absorption spectra of a gaseous diatomic molecule generated in a graphite furnace and using a high resolution (approx. 1.5 pm per pixel) monochromator (HR CS GFMAS).
Abstract: This work investigates the possibility of obtaining isotopic information via the monitoring of the absorption spectra of a gaseous diatomic molecule generated in a graphite furnace and using a high-resolution (approx. 1.5 pm per pixel) monochromator (HR CS GFMAS). To test this concept, Cl was chosen as the analyte and AlCl as the target species. The results demonstrate that, unlike what occurs with atomic spectra, under optimum conditions it is possible to acquire isotopic information by HR CS GFMAS in a straightforward way, as it is feasible to observe band heads for each Cl isotope (actually, for Al35Cl and Al37Cl) that are separated, i.e., they act like two different molecules absorbing at different wavelengths. The method proposed, based upon the addition of both Pd and Al and the selection of peak height values, enables Cl isotopic analysis with precision values around 2% RSD for solutions with Cl contents at the mg L−1 level. Accurate values, within this uncertainty, can be directly obtained without requiring any method for mass bias correction. The potential of isotope dilution for calibration is also explored, and it is proven how this approach can help in providing accurate results in situations where the occurrence of chemical interferences, a case frequently encountered for the HR CS GFMAS technique, hampers the use of other calibration approaches, as demonstrated for water analysis.

TL;DR: The InVesalius Navigator is developed and validated as the first free, open-source software for image-guided navigated TMS, compatible with multiple tracking devices, and easily integrated into existing neuroimaging tools, and customized for novel applications such as multi-locus and/or controllable-pulse TMS.

TL;DR: This is the first report of a halotolerant bifunctional β-xylosidase/α-l-arabinofuranosidase from C. graminicola, and the enzyme showed attractive properties for application in lignocellulose hydrolysis, particularly under high salinity and/or in the presence of residues of pretreatment steps.

TL;DR: The results suggest that these two species may act as bioindicators of preserved environments, as suggested for other Euglossini species.
Abstract: The Atlantic Forest stretches along Brazil's Atlantic coast, from Rio Grande do Norte State in the north to Rio Grande do Sul State in the south, and inland as far as Paraguay and the Misiones Province of Argentina. This biome is one of the eight biodiversity hotspots in the world and is characterized by high species diversity. Euglossini bees are known as important pollinators in this biome, where their diversity is high. Due to the high impact of human activities in the Atlantic Forest, in the present study the community structure of Euglossini was assessed in a coastal lowland area, Parque Estadual da Serra do Mar - Nucleo Picinguaba (PESM), and in an island, Parque Estadual da Ilha Anchieta (PEIA), Ubatuba, Sao Paulo State, Brazil. Sampling was carried out monthly, from August 2007 to July 2009, using artificial baits with 14 aromatic compounds to attract males. Twenty-three species were recorded. On PEIA, Euglossa cordata (L.) (Hymenoptera: Apidae) represented almost two thirds of the total species collected (63.2%). Euglossa iopoecila (23.0%) was the most abundant species in PESM but was not recorded on the island, and Euglossa sapphirina (21.0%) was the second most frequent species in PESM but was represented by only nine individuals on PEIA. The results suggest that these two species may act as bioindicators of preserved environments, as suggested for other Euglossini species. Some authors showed that Eg. cordata is favored by disturbed environments, which could explain its high abundance on Anchieta Island. Similarly, as emphasized by other authors, the dominance of Eg. cordata on the island would be another factor indicative of environmental disturbance.

TL;DR: A chloroform crude extract (aerial part) and two compounds, apigenin and cynaropicrin, isolated from Moquinia kingii were evaluated against Trypanosoma cruzi trypomastigotes in vitro and were active for both activities.
