Serum 18:2 (9, 11) linoleic acid concentration was measured in normal pregnancy and pre-eclampsia. The 18:2 (9, 11) linoleic acid in normal pregnancy increased progressively with advancing gestation, reaching the highest value at the end of pregnancy. The 18:2 (9, 11) linoleic acid concentration in pregnancy complicated by pre-eclampsia was significantly higher than in normal pregnancy after week 28. It is suggested that measurement of the 18:2 (9, 11) linoleic acid concentration in plasma may be useful as a predictor of the likely development of pre-eclampsia.

The cultivation of soybean is being expanded in traditional areas cultivated with rice, called the lowlands. However, soil characteristics are different from those in the highlands, which influences the exportation of nutrients to the grains. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the physical-chemical and technological characteristics of soybean grains harvested in lowlands in Brazil.
