The milk sweet is an important food produced and marketed, mainly in Brazil and Argentina, with high content of nutrients, resulting from the cooking of the mixture of milk and sugar, added flavoring or not, until their concentration and caramelisation. Failures during its processing or storage increases the risk of contamination to the consumer. In addition, microbiological analyzes are essential to meet the hygiene conditions in which food is prepared, the risks to the health of the consumer and the shelf life of desired.

The role of forest resources in rural livelihood and income generation in Nigeria cannot be overemphasized. The ecological, social, economic and environmental roles of the forest could not be dispensed with. The rate of increase in Nigeria population is very high. As a result, there is also increase in the demand for forest resources and land for agricultural purposes. This has led to the wanton removal of the forest ecosystem. This paper considered forest reservation efforts in Nigeria.

The Azadirachta Indica is a plant of the Meliaceae family, species originating in Southeast Asia and the Indian subcontinent, commonly used in several Brazilian municipalities for afforestation. The rising generation of municipal waste requires that there are alternatives to circumvent/ minimize environmental problems. One of the possibilities to circumvent this problem is the reuse of solid waste from the pruning of trees as biomass for power generation, where through the briquetting, you can compress the waste and transform them into a renewable energy source.

The levels of heavy metals contaminations of both soil and water were investigated at Ondo state waste dumping site at Igbatoro road, new stadium scrap market and FUTA research farm. Eight different heavy metals (Zn, Cr, Cu, Cd, Pb, Co, Fe and Ni) were measured in eight sampling units of soil, four from each dump site. These heavy metals were also analysed for water samples from four sampling units, two samples from each dump site and for maize plant, four samples, three from dumpsite and one from FUTA research farm as control.

Basing to the powders of two herbs (Cassia occidentalis et Daturastramonium) we have tried out keeping up the seeds of common bean have tried out. The insecticide power of hers in the study has been measured by the number of insects, the weight of commodity and the percentage of loss of weight to sobriety, and the number of seeds perforated in four sobrieties spaced in three months, during twelve months, either on the 20th of July 2016 to 20th June 2017.

Zanthoxylum zanthoxyloides Lamb (Rutaceae) is a threatened plant with medicinal and pesticidal properties. Its roots are over-harvested. The objective of the study was to determine the profile and the potential beneficial biological properties of its seed oil. The average weight of the seed was 22.98 ± 0.51 mg. It contained 5.5% water and 38.5% oil. Chemical analysis of the oil by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry revealed the presence of a monounsaturated fatty acid, oleic acid, in the proportion of 56.5% and two polyunsaturated fatty acids.

To evaluate the theoretical knowledge and skills of nursing interns on cardiopulmonary arrest.A descriptive study has been performed with 28 nursing students from a public institution in the north of Ceará. To collect data, a questionnaire has been applied with 24 objective questions about basic life support and simulated cardiorespiratory arrest situation. In the data analysis, descriptive statistics and binomial testing were used. Academic skills deficit was evidenced especially in the depth (p = <0,000) and correct speed (p = <0,000) of the compressions.

The purpose of this research study is to develop a novel, simple, precise, accurate and economical method for determination of related substances in Brexpiprazole API. The chromatographic method for determination of related substances was developed on Kromasil C8, (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 µm) Column with tertiary gradient program. The mobiles phase used for separation was (a) Dipotassium hydrogen phosphate buffer with pH 5.5 ±0.05, (b) Mix of 9 volumes of acetonitrile and 1 volume of Tetrahydrofuran and (c) Methanol.

Alcoholism is considered a public health problem, because it has consequences for society. In this aspect, the study aimed to identify the implications and repercussions of alcoholism on family relationships according to the Calgary Family Assessment Model. This is an exploratory descriptive research of the type of case study, carried out by master's students with the family of an alcoholic subject, accompanied by the Family Health Strategy, Sobral - CE in May 2016. The Calgary Model was used as a reference methodological approach to the family approach.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the sensory acceptability among children of pizzas in which different levels of pumpkin skin flour (PSF) were added. Additionally, we wanted to determine the physicochemical composition of the control product and of the one with a higher PSF level, and which formulations would have an acceptability level similar to the control product. Five pizza formulations were developed with the addition of different levels of PSF: F1 (0%), F2 (12%), F3 (18%), F4 (24%) and F5 (30%).
