Preliminary studies of various culture media were performed in Erlenmeyer flasks for 96 hours in a shaker at 44 °C and 240 rpm, and the degree of sporulation was analyzed. The culture media tested were glucose, yeast extract, peptone based medium (GYP), GYP with salts (GYPs), glucose, yeast extract, tryptone based medium (GYT), soy protein, yeast extract, sodium chloride based medium (FNY), 50% FNY (FNY50), glucose, soy protein, potassium salts based medium (DSK) and 50% DSK (DSK50). The results had shown that the FNY50 medium obtained a higher degree of sporulation of 100% followed by FNY with 99.99%, whereas media containing relatively large amounts of glucose such as GYP, GYPs and GYT did not exhibit satisfactory sporulation. The reduction of the cost and consequent increase of the efficiency in the preparati...

The probiotic microorganisms Bacillus spp. are attractive for the inherent stability due to their characteristic of spore-forming bacteria. Spores allow prolonged shelf life and increase the ability to survive gastric barriers, which turn out to be an advantage over lactobacilli. Two bacteria were supplied by VitaBridge Company in order to identify which strain would have the best technological performance for the development of a novel functional food with high performance in the zootechnical improvement of broilers. The characterization was performed according to the protocol which included phenotypic and genotypic tests for determining the probiotic potential of the strains. The results of the tests revealed that BVB1 possesses the best technological characteristics and can be used with efficiency in the improvement of the zootechnical performance of broilers.

À prima Andrea Uono Terazaki e Hugo Issao Terazaki, pelo carinho, irmandade e grande auxílio que prestam em todos os momentos, e à prima Fabiana Uono e Marcio Roberto Ruiz por sempre me motivarem a seguir em frente. Aos meus primos Carla Rumi Uono e Amauri Uono, Miriam Uono e Renato Medeiros pela grande amizade e irmandade. Agradecimento especial à Carla pela correção da dissertação. Aos meus tios Takanobu Hanada, Ondina Hanada e família, que não medem esforços para nos receber em seu lar nos momentos em que mais necessito desse calor familiar. À toda a grande família do Brasil, que me ajuda e incentiva a trilhar pelos caminhos do sucesso. À minha mãe do Japão, Makiko Ishibe, e à irmã, Mika Suzuki, pela acolhida nos momentos mais críticos e pelo grande conforto que me proporcionou dando-me um lar, e que sem isso eu não estaria hoje, concluindo o mestrado. Às minhas amigas/irmãs que deixei no Japão que oram por mim e estão na torcida, Nobuko Chinen, Helena Yamamura e Gisa Sakai, Yaeko Higa, Ritsuko Kinjo e Dayse Miyamoto. Às companheiras de mestrado, Camila Hiromi Chiba e Viviane Borges Vieira por todos os momentos que compartilhamos juntas.

In this study, Acid activated saw dust was used to remove dyes from aqueous solution in a column filtration reactor. Saw dust is an excellent low cost adsorbent of colored organic anions and may have significant potential as a color removal from tannery wastewater. The effectiveness of acid activated sawdust in absorbing Lurazol Brown pH (LBP) dye from aqueous solutions was studied as a function of agitation time, adsorbent dosage and initial dye concentration. The experimental data were fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm and found that adsorption process follows both the isotherm. The values of Langmuir and Freundlich constants indicate favorable and beneficial adsorption. A two-stage treatment system was developed and its performance assessed in relation to a variety of initial dye concentrations. This was backed by a series of laboratory experiments, the results of which provide a better scientific understanding of the biodegradable material like acid activated sawdust and help realize their potential as commercial products.

In recent years, there has been a massive proliferation of international companies, most of them located in wealth and industrialized countries, which controll their foreign affiliates. In the current context of globalization, these companies have great influence on the economy, as they interfere with governments and local business relations. Comparing this situation with the multilevel biological trophic pyramid, these companies have a direct and /or indirect impact on other levels, and it equilibrium is directly dependent on the movements taken independently by the different levels. In the competitive marketplace, a large company at the top of the pyramid can change this competitive environment and influence or alter t...
