This thesis is the result of a survey conducted in two cases and two Criminal Investigation Police discovered the Public Archives and History of Ribeirao Preto. In them we find four poor children who were raped at the turn of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. With the theoretical framework and methodology supported in Michel Foucault, the main trunk of the research is focused on the rescue of those children stories from the perspective of their own accounts. It is also the object of this work to investigate, through the intersection of the four procedural documents, the particularities of each of the crimes, unraveling how abused those children faced intensifying legal actions in their lives, and how the devices of sexuality and alliance, which had as a principle meet the medical/legal policy that historical period, seeking to punish deviant behavior, across each of those bodies. The study also found that the way assimilated elite and used the legal instrument to build their worldviews. We conclude with the work the new world designed in the late eighteenth century was built by and for the ruling elite. The speeches, laws and standards in Lawsuits recorded camouflage schemes standardization of social life, which led to all, in defiance of the law were to apply the few ( the only undesirable ). As one of the conclusions of the study it appears that the trials worked, actually, as an educational showcase the deviant, sanctioning their actions and berating his excesses. The shock of these infamous power with children was the only way to get out of the dark stories. Without this meeting, we would never know of their existence.

With the advent of the flexibilization of labor and production relations, a large number of new features and values gained prominence in the analysis of the work category, aiming, among other things, at the increasing individualization of the responsibilities in the work processes, the new lean organizations and the work based on short duration projects, as opposed to the preceding moment of the wage labor model called Fordist-Keynesianist. The analysis of the occupational career of party organizers in the night entertainment in the city of São Paulo has provided a very representative empirical cut on the flexibility expected of contemporary workers. We observed the forms of entry and maintenance on this informal market, mainly associated with the possession of a differentiated social capital, mobilized in accord to the cultural prescriptions of the consumer groups. We also analyzed the subjective and objective efforts demanded in their daily activities, that mobilizes great physical and mental efforts and dominate large periods of their personal schedules, and yet are positively reinterpreted as values of entrepreneurship and creative freedom. We observed how their identity as workers were constructed based on this differentiated service business, selling a product characterized by its symbolic value. We interviewed 8 Promoters from different musical styles, using semi-structured and free interviews, conducted in person or through virtual platforms of interaction, which are the spaces par excellence of the dissemination and promotion of their own parties.

The present study leaned on the theme of school in interface with youth, in the city of São Carlos, São Paulo. The general aim was to analyze and comprehend the meaning of school for young people enrolled in the senior year of High School, by giving priority to their views about the school institution. Besides factors such as lack of interest, violence, indiscipline, and lack of incentive to study, it is observed that many young people in Brazil especially those coming from the lower classes evade the institutions during their school career. Nevertheless, there are those who stay at school, satisfied or not, with or without difficulties, and this work is an attempt to understand the peculiarities and meanings of this permanence. For that, first it resorted the use of a questionnaire with closed-ended questions to an universe of 861 young people enrolled in the senior year of High School from 13 public institutions and 6 private schools on the referred town, to obtain data on excerpts from the students school career, the meanings of school and how formal education is constituted for them, in the pursuit to include young people with several life paths, social and economic situations. Afterwards, two meetings were performed and denominated group talk with five students who made themselves available to participate, among those who answered the questionnaire, aiming to make a reflection about the theme taking by reference a general presentation of the collected data and the statistic results. The empirical results were analyzed from the description, composition and comparison of the collected information with the young people, based on the scientific references of Education, Sociology and Social Occupational Therapy, which parameterizes the debate around this problem set. The results reveal that the trajectories of the young participants are linear, with few oscillations in their school careers. When taking position about the role and the meanings of the school institution, they reflect significantly what the society projects on school: the responsibility for a job training or for higher education, depending on the social class of the student. The criticism, the dissatisfaction and the attribution of widest meanings appear on the group talk, engendering also an individual reflection that stands out, given the scenario seen from another angle; the school for the youngsters is the same but it could be another. In the pursuit for understanding what those who remained until the last year of High School have to say, it is expected to provide references for strategies to deal with the issue regarding the possible meanings of school today, taking the young people as the center of those possibilities.

This thesis consists of three studies in the context of cavity quantum electrodynam- ics. Firstly, we investigate the quantum-to-classical transition of a dissipative cavity .eld by measuring the correlations between two non-interacting atoms coupled to the cavity mode. We note that there is a time window in which the mode presents a classical be- havior, which depends on the cavity decay rate, the atom-.eld coupling strength and the number of atoms. Then, considering the steady state of two atoms inside the cavity, we note that the entanglement between the atoms disappears while the intracavity mean number of photons (ñ) increases. However, the mutual information, the classical corre- lations and the quantum discord reach asymptotic non-zero values even in the limit of (continue...)

This research aims at investigating discursive mechanisms in direct, indirect and free indirect speeches in the teaching context of textual production and interpretation. To contemplate this objective the present research situates itself in the Theory of Predicative and Enunciative Operations, theoretical field that is guided by Antoine Culioli. The reported speech in the students composition, appear differently from what grammar or course books show and explain. It has been observed that neither punctuation rules nor the rules to transpose direct speech in indirect speech, in the mentioned contexts, are followed in order to create different meanings. It is likely that these linguistics arrangements, which are not always in accordance with standard language established by the grammar book, have being used as a linguistic strategy to articulate the relations of the generating process of meanings. Thus, it seems to be relevant to rethink how reported speech is considered in the language teaching process, especially in learners compositions, as a mean of promoting the linguistic-cognitive development of students.

Adolescence and youth are sociocultural categories that recently have been reaching social and political relevance. Knowledge has been produced about these categories, which are characterized as plural social groups, and it is important to contribute to multidisciplinary readings. In this perspective, the present research aims at investigating and mapping the production of knowledge about youth in the health area of Stricto- Sensu Post-graduation, according to the classification of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), searching to contribute to State of the Art studies on this theme. To perform this mapping, data available on the Theses Portal of CAPES were used, covering all the material provided between 1987 and 2010. This is a descriptive research, consisting of documentary analysis, methodologically organized in 4 stages: 1. Survey of theses and dissertations, 2. Data organization, 3. Survey of Analysis Categories and 4. Analysis. In the first stage, the descriptors young, youth, adolescent, adolescence, generation, (inter)generational, majority and minority were used and 33.654 works have been found. In the selection of those which belonged to the Health Area, responded to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and which were not duplicated, 2.953 works were accepted, totalizing 8,77% of the initial number. These works have been classified in thematic bases, with the objective of recognizing their focus, and subsequently the abstracts considered relevant to the research were reread so they could be analytically systematized. The conducted analysis allows the assertion of a Post-graduation in Health panorama that is still incipient and dispersed concerning youth, in which the use of the descriptors adolescent and adolescence prevails, in a ratio of 3,84 works which use this term for each study that brings the concepts of young and/or youth . An empirical reading of the category prevails in more than 90% of the studies. It was also possible to verify the dominance of studies produced in Masters programs (74,60%) of Public Institutions of Higher Education concentrated on the Southeast region of Brazil, which consists of more than 60% of the studies. In the Health area, the subareas, respectively, Nursery, Health Sciences, Public Health, Medicine (Pediatricts), Collective Health, Physical Education, Health of Children and Adolescents and Nutrition concentrate dissertations and theses. The researched production is widely spread through 484 different Post-graduation programs and 1.514 different advisors. Although this production is diversified concerning production places, studies are concentrated on epidemiological, clinical and laboratorial aspects (53,3%), indicating a tendency in works produced in the Health Area: the focus on disease problems. It is believed that such diffusion might disfavor the strengthening of the debate about the theme, and it indicates the necessity of overcoming readings that put youth in more individual aspects.

In recent years, the nursing community through health education has awakened interest in more effective methods of educating patients and their families. Writing through educational materials communication has been widely used in the context of care can contribute significantly to the development of skills for self-care and reducing complications associated with the use of indwelling catheters. However, educational materials must be appropriate to the target audience so your understanding is not compromised and the proposed objectives are achieved. This study aimed to submit the educational material "Indwelling urinary catheter - Care to be taken home for the correct functioning of the urinary catheter in men" to the evaluation of men and caregivers of men who use this device at home. This is a descriptive study with a quantitative approach. The convenience sample consisted of patients seen at a Urology Clinic and Municipal Specialty Center. Data collection was conducted through home visits, after contact via telephone for scheduling. Two instruments were used: tool for characterization of other participants and the type Likert scale for assessment of educational material, provided with questions related to written and oral illustrative information in educational materials. The study included 16 subjects, eight men and eight caregivers. Men who reviewed the educational material had a mean age of 61,2 years and 52,1 years for caregivers. The question referred to the use of bladder catheter was predominantly takes radical prostatectomy followed by urinary retention, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, stroke, spinal cord injury and neurogenic bladder. Is predominant among men and caregivers who rated the educational materials the low education level (≤ 4 years of schooling). For men all items related to educational material were positively evaluated, and the percentage agreement of 100,00% was predominant in nine items and 87,50% on an item. For caregivers, the educational material was also positively evaluated the percentage of 100,00% agreement prevailed in seven items and 87,50% on three items. The evaluation of educational material for all participants resulted in agreement equal to 100,00% in six items and 93,75% on four items. The value set for each item to be considered adequate agreement was equal to or greater than 70,00%, and at this stage all items for all participants were considered adequate. The Spearman correlation made between Topic 1 – Understanding of content and illustrations and Topic 2 – Perception of the understanding, usefulness and relevance of the information contained in written material and spoken by the researcher men who evaluated the material and caregivers who also evaluated, resulted in significant and positive, 0,79 and 0,58, respectively. The Spearman correlation made between the topics of all participants, also resulted in a significant and positive correlation equal to 0,56. That demonstrates the understanding of the content and Illustrations are positively related to the perception of understanding, usefulness and relevance of the information contained in educational material and spoken by the researcher. The results confirm that the educational material was evaluated positively and is suitable for the target audience. It is hoped that this material can be a tool for health education activities with men and caregivers of men who use indwelling catheters at home.

This work aims at presenting some recent results on the theory of polar foliations, also know as singular riemannian foliations with sections, on nonpositively curved manifolds, as seen in T oben [24]. Polar actions are also studied, for they are active research subject that motivate and illustrate polar foliations. We give a proof of the nonexistence of proper polar foliations on compact manifolds of nonpositive curvature. Then we present a result that globally describes proper polar foliations on Hadamard manifolds. We prove this same result in the special case of polar actions by using the theory of taut submanifolds. The adjoint and conjugation actions are brie y presented as classical examples of polar actions.

The process of ecosystem degradation is intensifying, causing changes in the flow of services provided by them, compromising the natural balance, environmental quality and welfare of society. In this perspective, this study proposed in the first chapter, the characterization of areas with vegetation cover in São Carlos, SP, in three scales: the territory of the municipality, the two units of water management and the ten sub-basins Guabirobas, Mogi Guacu, Araras, Cabaceiras, Quilombo, Chibarro, Monjolinho, Pântano, Jacaré-Guaçu e Feijão, by overlapping letters and visual interpretation of satellite images. The territory of the municipality of São Carlos has 28% of its total area with vegetation cover, and 21.6% is in permanent preservation areas (APPs) and of these, 51% are vegetated. Regarding the sources, 40% are protected by vegetation. The indicators show good environmental quality in the Jacaré-Guaçu sub-basin, while the sub-basins of Monjolinho and Mogi-Guaçu have unsatisfactory levels of vegetation cover. The second chapter diagnosed public green areas in the urban area and analyzed their administrative regions, and the percentage of public green areas (PAVP) and the index of public green areas (IAVP) as parameters. We obtained the index of 18,85 m2 of public green areas per inhabitant, characterized as satisfactory when compared to 15m2/inhabitant index suggested by the Brazilian Society of Urban Forestry. However, when regions were analyzed individually arise concern values (lower than desired). The Genebrino method, applied to PAVP and IAVP, made a commendable goal above 40% for urban environmental quality. Given the scenario presented, we proceeded to survey the environmental initiatives of government, ONGs and private agencies to minimize the problems encountered. We found that maintaining ecosystem functions and services provided by areas with vegetation cover in the period from 1977 to 2014, resulted from planting of 58,460 seedling trees, which was the most played in the city. This study, involving the sub-basins and urban perimeter, shows the importance of maintaining the functions and ecosystem services provided by native vegetation areas and amounts calculated for such services as possible to simulate the municipality loses withdraws the vegetation cover or still spend much to get her back.

Traditionally, Multilingual Multi-document Automatic Summarization (MMAS) is a computational application that, from a single collection of source-texts on the same subject/topic in at least two languages, produces an informative and generic summary (extract) in one of these languages. The simplest methods automatically translate the source-texts and, from a monolingual collection, apply content selection strategies based on shallow and/or deep linguistic knowledge. Therefore, the MMAS applications need to identify the main information of the collection, avoiding the redundancy, but also treating the problems caused by the machine translation (MT) of the full source-texts. Looking for alternatives to the traditional scenario of MMAS, we investigated two methods (Method 1 and 2) that once based on deep linguistic knowledge of lexical-conceptual level avoid the full MT of the sourcetexts, generating informative and cohesive/coherent summaries. In these methods, the content selection starts with the score and the ranking of the original sentences based on the frequency of occurrence of the concepts in the collection, expressed by their common names. In Method 1, only the most well-scored and non redundant sentences from the user s language are selected to compose the extract, until it reaches the compression rate. In Method 2, the original sentences which are better ranked and non redundant are selected to the summary without privileging the user s language; in cases which sentences that are not in the user s language are selected, they are automatically translated. In order to producing automatic summaries according to Methods 1 and 2 and their subsequent evaluation, the CM2News corpus was built. The corpus has 20 collections of news texts, 1 original text in English and 1 original text in Portuguese, both on the same topic. The common names of CM2News were identified through morphosyntactic annotation and then it was semiautomatically annotated with the concepts in Princeton WordNet through the Mulsen graphic editor, which was especially developed for the task. For the production of extracts according to Method 1, only the best ranked sentences in Portuguese were selected until the compression rate was reached. For the production of extracts according to Method 2, the best ranked sentences were selected, without privileging the language of the user. If English sentences were selected, they were automatically translated into Portuguese by the Bing translator. The Methods 1 and 2 were evaluated intrinsically considering the linguistic quality and informativeness of the summaries. To evaluate linguistic quality, 15 computational linguists analyzed manually the grammaticality, non-redundancy, referential clarity, focus and structure / coherence of the summaries and to evaluate the informativeness of the sumaries, they were automatically compared to reference sumaries by ROUGE measures. In both evaluations, the results have shown the better performance of Method 1, which might be explained by the fact that sentences were selected from a single source text. Furthermore, we highlight the best performance of both methods based on lexicalconceptual knowledge compared to simpler methods of MMAS, which adopted the full MT of the source-texts. Finally, it is noted that, besides the promising results on the application of lexical-conceptual knowledge, this work has generated important resources and tools for MMAS, such as the CM2News corpus and the Mulsen editor.

This dissertation aims at investigating educational indicators of professional development in teaching through the participation of novice and experienced music teachers in the late years of elementary school in a continuing education distance program. The study is based on the notions of educational indicators and educational indicators of professional development in teaching proposed by Reali (2009) and Reali et al. (2004), in Shulman s theory on teachers professional knowledge base and the pedagogical reasoning process (1986; 1987; 2005) as well as on teachers professional experience based on Tardif (2012). In this qualitative study, the constructive-collaborative method of intervention-research was used, in which the teachers narratives concerning their education and professional practice were considered. Music teachers continuing distance education was developed from April to December 2011 on the UFSCar Teachers Portal. Tools of software packages Moodle and Skype were used for data collection in the study. After completing the program, thirteen (13) music teachers in the late years of elementary school were selected and constituted the study sample. In its results, the investigation found eleven (11) educational indicators of professional development in music teaching. As regards novice teachers, it was observed that they tend to not master all the necessary knowledge for teaching; show greater difficulties in planning activities and defining contents to be taught; tend to master and use some technologies applied to musical reproduction and practice in music teaching. Concerning the experienced teachers, it was observed that, in atypical situations of professional practice, they show difficulties in mastering music content, in choosing contents to be taught and in planning lessons; are concerned about getting to know students and their involvement with music better; seek for information on songs of students interest, even if their treatment does not exclusively take place in class; show to be more secure in defining the music contents to be taught; are concerned about students broader development and not only about their learning music content; show to have greater access to and greater knowledge of music teaching materials; tend to show tranquility when coping with situations that arise unexpectedly; and are constantly learning.

Environmental contamination by pesticides in agriculture has caused many irreparable damage environmental to the ecosystem. Pentachlorophenol (PCP), the class of organochlorines, is a phenolic compound and a dangerous pollutant, that although banned in Brazil since 1985, there are many contaminated areas. This pesticide is the subject of much concern because it has high toxicity and power of persistence in the environment due to their resistance to biotic and abiotic degradation. The use of microorganisms as degrading agents of several chemical is considered an effective method to reduce the adverse effects of contaminants on the environment. The fungi derived from marine environment are adapted to extreme conditions, developing attributes that give them the ability to produce various of biologically active compounds differentes of their respective representatives who inhabit the land environment. In addition, marine fungi present an excellent bioenzimatic potential to be explored in the biotransformation of xenobiotics such as, for example, pesticides. In this work, fifteen strains of fungi isolated from a marine invertebrate, the ascidian Didemnun ligulum were evaluated according to their resistance, ability to grow in the presence of the pentachlorophenol (PCP) pesticide and its enzymatic potential against biodegradation of the pesticide and its metabolites. Concentrations were evaluated 10, 25, 30, 40 and 50 mgL-1 in solid media 3% malt. Nine among the tested strains showed growth in at least one concentration, but the DL2B strain (identified as Trichoderma harzianum) obtained optimal growth in most (50 mgL-1), proving be resistant to its toxicity and suggesting its potential for biodegradation. Therefore, it was selected for reactions in liquid medium in the presence of the pesticide with an initial concentration of 20 mgL-1 of PCP, to measure biodegradation. he biodegradation were evaluated after 7, 14 and 21 days of incubation. In 7 days of incubation it was no longer detected the presence of PCP in the samples, indicating the biodegradation of the pesticide by the fungus. The pentachloroanisole (PCA) metabolites and 2,3,4,6- tetrachloroanisole (2,3,4,6-TeCA) were identified by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS), indicating degradation of the pesticide by the fungus. In a second step, the strain of Trichoderma harzianum was subjected to biodegradation reactions in liquid medium containing metabolites PCA and 2,3,4,6-TeCA. It was observed that these compounds possibly cause some toxic effect on this micro-organism, but not enough to cripple the biodegradation by fungi. The fungus didn't degrade these compounds completely as occured with the PCP, but got reduce the concentrations of metabolites in the samples. These results confirm the efficiency of fungi derived from marine environment to biodegrade persistent compounds and enables the improvement methodologies using these microorganisms in techniques for decontamination of polluted environments with xenobiotics.

The aims of the current research were to characterize the residential institutions for intellectually disabled persons in the State of São Paulo (Brazil) and elaborate, implement and evaluate the efficacy of an Educational Program to Professionals working with young and adults with Intellectual Disabilities (PEP-DI). In order to improve the organization it was decided to divide the research in two studies. In the Study 1 the Institutions were characterized through the description of the activities and strategies used in the daily practices of the professionals working in it. It was chosen 10 Brazilian Residential Institutions with 113 participants, being 14 administrative persons, 49 professionals on the technical team and 50 persons living or working in the neighborhood of these Institutions. The participants answered three different semistructured surveys, one for each group of professionals and another for the neighborhood. The goals of the applied instruments were to verify historical aspects, operations and institutional practices. The researcher visited on the spot all the Institution for data acquisition. The results show that the creation of the Institution, in general, occurred through social demands and solicitations of the municipal offices for social assistance, however the maintenance is occurs by mean of philanthropic actions. Regarding the Institutional Practices is related to the health care, hygiene and alimentation. The aims of Study 2 were to elaborate, implement and evaluate the efficacy of an educational program, the PEP-DI; verify the behavioral changing related to the professionals repertory and intellectually disabled residents proportionate by applying the training program on the Institutional Environment. It was made an educational program, the PEP-DI, adapted to the reality of the studied institution. The participants were three professionals and 4 intellectually disable individuals of an Institution. The multiple probe design with subjects and with behaviors was chosen to verify the effects of the intervention amongst the participants. The event‟s registration protocol of was used to evaluate the entry repertory and the behavioral changes of the individuals before, during and after implementing the training program. The results show the participants modified significantly their professional repertory, once the residents presented better performance on their daily activities. The study discuss the current aspects faced by the Institutions and what changes must be done to proportionate more favorable environments, improvement on the life quality and social insertion of this population.

This work aimedat analyzing the life trajectory of black women in the city of Sorocaba from the perspective of their race and gender. Itseeks to investigate the role of militancy in thedevelopment oftheir political conscience and how this militancy can be understood as an educational power. The methodologyusedwas that oforal history and, in this context, the analysis is focused in the narrator’s experienced subjectivity. Analysis categories were established from the recurrence observed in their speech. Our approach consists in establishing how these women experienced their own history rather than discovering new historical facts. In orderto conduct the analysis, we gathered aspects that were recurrent both in the interviewees’ speeches and in the forms of resistance adopted by the black people as captive, freedmen or in the post-abolition period. Among the forms of resistance adopted by these women, associations, familiar structure, scholar process and Clube 28 de Setembroas a place for racial assertion are recurrent. We were able to establish that they were all strengthened as black women by the militancy process. Finally, more than never, from my positionas a man speaking aboutour interviewees’ lives, I was able to understand how much we can learn from ourYalodes,ourwise women.

Lexical data base building can be considered an essential task for Natural Language Processing (NLP), since the data included can be used in numerous tools, such as Parsers, Semantic Role Labelers, automatic translators, Text Simplifiers, Paraphrases Systems, Question-Answer Systems, Information Extraction Systems, among others. One kind of lexical information that can be used by these systems and, therefore, must be described and formalized is the nominal predicates, which can be defined by the union of a predicative noun and a support verb. Predicative nouns are those with arguments, and support verbs are the ones semantically empty. The latter provides to nouns the tense-aspect-person-number marks that they don t have, given their morphology. In this context, this research presents the linguistic description of 1,815 Brazilian Portuguese nominal predicates (support verb fazer and a predicative noun) according to the Lexicon-Grammar Theory. Such theory proposes that the linguistic unity of analysis is the simple clause (the predicator and its arguments). The data is inserted in a binary table, which presents the lexical entries in rows and the formal properties (structural, distributional and transformational) in columns.Twenty-nine properties were identified, such as (i) the type of prepositions; (ii) the possibility of passive voice, and others. The nominal predicates analysed were divided into 17 classes, which have syntactic regularities. This research has identified the variants of support verb fazer (make/do), in order to expand the possibilities of the ocurrence of these kinds of predicates. This research aims to contribute to the linguistic description of the Brazilian Portuguese language and NLP, providing data to be used in the future by systems that process lexicon.

During the last decade, the advent of large scale processing and the need for rapid modification of computational structures have increased the popularity of Cloud Computing, particularly the Infrastructure as a Service model. Several companies have invested in infrastructure to become providers of this kind of service, whether for general public or only to supply their own business needs. This has increased the number of virtualized datacenters across the world and created a growing interest in interoperability between different providers. However, due to the lack of technology standardization, and to limitations in the current network s architecture, this interoperability is still an issue. Based on this, this research project presents an OpenFlow based network flow redirection architecture to support service continuity during the migration of applications between different IaaS providers. The tests performed show the applicability of the proposed architecture in a real network environment, having control only of the network edges, and without setting up any specific hardware.

This paper aims to present and analyze fragments of the history of rural education in São João da Boa Vista, in the state of São Paulo. Referring to the principle of totality, the work brings some notes on education in the country and in the state of São Paulo, then to analyze rural education in São João da Boa Vista. For this, at first, part of the literature survey, analysis of laws, annuals teaching the state of São Paulo, and other official documents to official school records and still unofficial including questionnaires, which allowed the observation of the current reality of schools located in the countryside of São João da Boa Vista and knowledge of the profile of the students and their families. It is guided by observation and analysis of these data that the study points to a significant drop in the number of rural schools in the county, showing how the policy of closing these schools stem from numerous factors beyond the individual will remain in the field or not . Finally, it presents some of the possible causes and factors responsible for drawing the current scenario of rural education sanjoanense.

Clavulanic acid (CA) produced by Streptomyces clavuligerus, is a potent inhibitor of beta-lactamases used in combination with conventional beta-lactam antibiotics in the treatment of infections caused by resistant bacteria to these antibiotics. The biosynthesis of CA is limited by high concentrations of carbon source and like other beta-lactam compounds, it is highly unstable in acidic or basic pHs even at moderate temperatures. In this work, it was investigated different strategies to improve the production of AC. Batch and batch cultivations with glycerol pulses were carried out in shaker at 250 rpm and pH 6.8 at constant temperatures of 20, 25 and 30°C (run control), as well as with temperature reduction after cell growth phase from 30 to 25°C, 30 to 20°C and 25 to 20 C. It was also investigated the effects of temperature and pH on the AC degradation at various cultivation times in the presence of different concentration of ammonium ion. It was observed that the use of low temperatures (20°C) during cultivation reduced the substrate uptake rate and provides a higher accumulation of AC, in the broth by reducing the effects of CA degradation and inhibition effects caused by carbon source. Batch cultivations with higher glycerol concentration (30 and 60 g/L) were also performed at low temperature (20 and 25°C). The results confirmed that glycerol inhibits or even represses the biosynthesis of CA, depending of the temperature condition employed. The highest CA concentration value (1543 mg/L) were obtained for the cultivation at 20°C and 30 g/L glycerol, 9.2 fold-higher than run control at 30°C. The kinetics of CA degradation at pHs 6.5 and 7.5 and at different concentrations of ammonium ion (0 to 1000 mg/L) were also evaluated. It observed that the degradation was highest at pH 7.5 and higher concentration of ammonium ion. For all proposals of cultivations for CA production, it was obtained a maximum CA concentration in fermentation broth of about 1.5 g/L, indicating that CA acts as an inhibitor of its own biosynthesis. Then, the potential CA removal from broth culture was evaluated by using of alternative adsorbents such as activated carbon, clinoptilolite calcined hydrotalcite, and an ion exchange resin Amberlite IRA 400, for application in extractive fermentation process. The use of resin IRA 400 as an adsorbent to remove CA during cultivation resulted in an increase of 48% in maximum CA concentration if compared with cultivation at the same temperature condition (20°C) and glycerol concentration (15 g/L) conducted without product removal, confirming the hypothesis of inhibition by product in the CA production process. In cultivation at 20°C with glycerol concentration of 30 g/L and product removal, it was obtained a highest CA production of 2841 mg/L. The results indicate that the use of low temperature combined with the removal of product during the production process of AC represent a new and effective strategies to greatly increase the yield of CA.
