Sobre IBD

Domestic sewage and industrial effluents are the main sources of contamination of water resources, as these wastes are often toxic and their improper disposal can seriously degrade the environment. The Poti and Parnaíba rivers in the city of Teresina-PI receive a significant volume of sewage produced in the urban area, as well as being the recipients of effluents processed in sewage treatment plants. The aim of the research was to assess the toxicity and genotoxic and mutagenic potential induced by sewage effluents treated by stabilization pond systems in the city of Teresina - PI, using the Allium cepa test. It highlighted the importance of carrying out environmental biomonitoring of water bodies that receive a high demand of treated and untreated effluents, as the complex mixtures present in these effluents can induce genomic instability and alter various ecosystems. The book is aimed at biologists, environmental managers and engineers, health professionals and anyone with an interest in the subject.

  • Viral Replication Complexes
    Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that need to co-opt a living cell’s machinery for replication. At the heart of the viral replication machinery are the nucleic acid polymerases, which are responsible for efficiently copying the viral genome. This process must often be coordinated with other viral processes, including protein translation and viral packaging. The poly...
  • Advances in Flavivirus Research
    The flaviviruses are composed almost entirely of arthropod-borne viruses, a subset of which are responsible for millions of cases of human disease each year. Among these viruses are dengue virus—a scourge throughout the tropical regions of Asia and the Americas; yellow fever virus—the “original” hemorrhagic fever virus; and the recently emerged Zika virus. While the flaviviruse...

    This edited book brings together research reports on the asymmetry of brain function in various species, including humans, dogs, birds, lizards and bees. As shown in a wide range of species, and, as we now know, not solely in humans, the left and right sides of the brain process information in different ways and control different responses or patterns of behaviour. Since this d...

    Joëlle Roche
    The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a highly dynamic process with multiple transitional states, by which epithelial cells can convert into a mesenchymal phenotype. This process involves loss of cellular adhesion and cellular polarity, and an improvement in migratory and invasive properties. It occurs during normal embryonic development, tissue regeneration, organ ...

    There has been an observed decrease in the global mortality from cancer, mostly atributable to improved, particularly early, detection and prevention. For many carcinomas and leukaemias in adults, once the disease has reached a certain stage there are no therapies that are able to erradicate the cancer cells and cure patients. There has been progress in the treatment of acute m...
