August 2019
Laboratory of Plant Cytogenetics and Evolution, Department of Botany, Centre of Biosciences, Federal University of Pernambuco, R. Prof. Moraes Rego, s/n, CDU, Recife, PE, 50670-420, Brazil.
Ten microsatellite markers were developed using next-generation sequencing data for Alibertia edulis (Rubiaceae), a widely distributed species typical of Cerrado (Brazilian savanna) vegetation. The markers were polymorphic in the two populations analyzed. The numbers of alleles, and observed (H) and expected (H) heterozygosities per polymorphic locus ranged from 2 to 11, 0.

February 2014
Oswaldo Cruz Foundation, Rio de JaneiroRJ, Brazil, PhD in Histology, Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (FioCRUZ), Rio de Janeiro-RJ, Brazil. Histological analysis, interpretation of data.
Purpose: To investigate the induction of neoplastic lesions under the action of ultraviolet B radiation (UVR-B) and dimethyl benzanthracene (DMBA).
Methods: Forty Wistar rats were assigned to four groups (ten animals each), according to the procedure: group A received UVR-B irradiation, group B received topic DMBA, group C, UVR-B+DMBA and group D as control, observed for ten weeks. In the tenth week they went through a skin biopsy and histopathological study.
Sildenafil citrate protects skeletal muscle of ischemia-reperfusion injury: immunohistochemical study in rat model.
Acta Cir Bras
April 2013
Department of Surgery, Sao Francisco Valley Federal University, Petrolina, PE, Brazil.
Purpose: To investigate the effect of sildenafil citrate (SC) on skeletal muscle ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in rats.
Methods: Adult male Wistar rats were randomized into three groups: vehicle-treated control (CTG), sildenafil citrate-treated (SCG), and sham group (SG). CTG and SCG had femoral artery occluded for 6 hours.
Hepatic damage in newborns from female rats exposed to the pesticide derivative ethylenethiourea.
Acta Cir Bras
December 2012
Department of Medicine, Sao Francisco Valley Federal University, Brazil.
Purpose: To evaluate hepatic morphological-histological abnormalities in newborns from female rats exposed to ethylenethiourea.
Methods: A randomized study was conducted on fifty-five newborn Wistar rats were studied: 34 in the experimental group, whose mothers had been exposed to 1% ethylenethiourea; and 21 in the control group, whose mothers had received 0.9% physiological solution.
