The Amapá state has extensive forests and savannas, which are important carbon stocks being negatively affected due to agricultural, forestry and industrial activities. Thus the project aims to develop a methodology applicable to the entire State of Amapá, aiming to reach all types of existing vegetation, being the basis for estimates of forest biomass and the quantification of carbon stocks, in addition to enabling the monitoring of changes caused on biomass due to the economic activities de

Since Brazil has a strong prospect of becoming a major exporter of dairy products, the production chain of milk needs to prepare to overcome obstacles such as non-tariff barriers related to food safety and quality assurance. Thus, this project aimed to gather information and develop methodologies for addressing such a challenge. One of the goals was the physicochemical and microbiological characterization of four dairy products (Minas Standard cheese, curd cheese, condensed milk, and whey powder

Spectroscopy, which is always associated with chemometrics, is a versatile technique that is applied in several areas of science. It is fast, non-destructive, low-cost and, in addition, “clean”, requiring few or no reagents. The latter factor aligns the tool with green chemistry.

The current project aims to strengthen a multidisciplinary team that is familiar with spectroscopy, chemometrics, pedology, and soil fertility in order to adapt and incorporate various routine methods used in s ...

A crescente demanda de água para fins industriais e residenciais, geração de energia, mineração, lazer, somados aos problemas ambientais, faz com que quantidade de água para a agricultura apresente uma tendência de redução. A agricultura é o maior usuário de água em todo o mundo. O setor agrícola brasileiro é o principal usuário consuntivo dos recursos hídricos. Uma provável solução para esse problema é aperfeiçoar como a água é manejada, o que envolve a adoção de tecnologias e procedimentos ade ...
