    • Characterisation and in vivo evaluation of Araucaria angustifolia pinhão seed coat nanosuspension as a functional food source 

      de Lima, Gabriel Goetten; de Miranda, Neli Branco; Timm, Thaynã Gonçalves; Matos, Mailson; Magalhães, Washington Luiz Esteves; Tavares, Lorena Benathar Ballod; Hansel, Fabricio Augusto; Helm, Cristiane Vieira (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-10-08)
      Araucaria angustifolia seeds are culturally important from South America; however, the seed coat is generally discarded and have yet to find a beneficial commercial impact. We propose a new formulation to the usage of ...
    • Effect of cullulose size-concentration on the structure of polyvinyl alcohol hydrogels. 

      de Lima, Gabriel Goetten; Ferreira, Bruno; Matos, Mailson; Pereira, Bruno Leandro; Nugent, Michael J.D.; Hansel, Fabríco Augusto; Magalhães, Washington Luiz Esteves (Elsevier, 2020-06-11)
      Microfibrillated cellulose as a reinforcement agent has been investigated extensively due to their unique characteristics, which can reorder the structure of polymers and hydrogels leading to improved mechanical properties ...
    • The evaluation of the potential ecotoxicity of pyroligenous acid obtained from fast pyrolsis. 

      de Lima, Gabriel Goetten; Mendes, Camila; de Marchi, Gustavo; Vicari, Taynah; Cestari, Marta Margarete; Gomes, Monike F.; Ramsdorf, Wanessa Algarte; Magalhães, Washington Luiz Esteves; Hansel, Fabricio Augusto; Morais, Daniela Leme (Elsevier, 2019-09-30)
      Pyroligneous acid (PA) is a by-product of bio-oil, which is obtained by pyrolysis of the wood. This product has been tested for use in several areas, such as agriculture, as a promising green herbicide; however, there are ...
    • Nanosuspension of pinhão seed coat development for a new high-functional cereal bar. 

      Timm, Thaynã Gonçalves; de Lima, Gabriel Goetten; Matos, Mailson; Magalhães, Washington Luiz Esteves; Tavares, Lorena Benathar Ballod; Helm, Cristiane Vieira (Wiley, 2020-03-31)
      The seeds from Araucaria angustifolia—commonly named as pinhão—are important culturally, and viable regional food from Brazil. Although now considered an endangered species, methods to increase the awareness of this tree ...
    • Prediction of yerba mate caffeine content using near infrared spectroscopy. 

      de Lima, Gabriel Goetten; Ruiz, Henrique Zavattieri; Matos, Mailson; Helm, Cristiane Vieira; de Liz, Marcus Vinicius; Magalhães, Washington Luiz Esteves (Taylor & Francis, 2019-06-10)
      There is a commercial and beneficial interest of producing yerba mate leaves into different grades of caffeine. This work uses a handheld and bench near infrared spectroscopy to compare and predict, using partial least ...
    • A tough and novel dual-response PAA/P(NiPAAM-co-PEGDMA) IPN hydrogels with ceramics by photopolymerization for consolidation of bone fragments following fracture. 

      de Lima, Gabriel Goetten; Elter, Johanna Katrin; Chee, Bor Shin; Magalhães, Washington Luiz Esteves; Devine, Declan M.; Nugent, Michael J.; de Sá, Marcelo J.C. (IOP Science, 2019-07)
      In this work, a novel dual-response hydrogel for enhanced bone repair following multiple fractures was investigated. The conventional treatment of multiple bone fracture consists on removing smaller bone fragments from the ...
