The present study examined the in vitro and in vivo development of bovine nuclear-transferred embryos. A bovine fetal fibroblast culture was established and used as nucleus donor. Slaughterhouse oocytes were matured in vitro for 18 h before enucleation. Enucleated oocytes were fused with fetal fibroblasts with an electric stimulus and treated with cytochalasin D and cycloheximide for 1 h followed by cycloheximide alone for 4 h. Reconstructed embryos were cultured for 7-9 days and those which developed to blastocysts were transferred to recipient cows. Of 191 enucleated oocytes, 83 (43.5%) were successfully fused and 24 (28.9%) developed to blastocysts. Eighteen freshly cloned blastocysts were transferred to 14 recipients, 5 (27.8%) of which were pregnant on day 35 and 3 (16.7%) on day 90. Of the three cows that reached the third trimester, one recipient died of hydrallantois 2 months before term, one aborted fetus was recovered at 8 months of gestation, and one delivered by cesarian section a healthy cloned calf. Today, the cloned calf is 15 months old and presents normal body development (378 kg) and sexual behavior (libido and semen characteristics).

The aim of this particular study was to test in vitro sperm capacitation protocols, using heparin (100mg/ml) and calcium ionophore (5mM). Propidium iodide and carboxifluorescein diacetate (IP/CFDA) in a fluorescence microscope as well as triple stain (congo red, neutral red and Giemsa) in Phase contrast microscope were used as staining. The spermatozoa were classified according to its viability (alive or dead) and acrossome integrity (damaged or intact). They were considered as follows: capacitated (alive and damaged); non capacitated (alive and not damaged) and dead (damaged or intact). The heparin group showed a ratio of 64.54% and 39.16% of capacitated spermatozoa in IP/CFDA and triple stain, respectively. In the calcium group, 36.41% and 18.11% of spermatozoa were capacitated in IP/CFDA and triple stain, respectively. Bulls were divided into 3 groups according to their fertility rates as follows: Group A 68%. For all three groups there was significant differences (p 0.01), when observed capacitated, non capacitated and dead spermatozoa among groups A and B; A and C; B and C, using heparin and calcium ionophore in both stains. No correlation was seen between capacitation and fertility rates. Therefore heparin treatment showed better sperm capacitation rates than calcium ionophore. The IP/CFDA technique showed itself as being a better method to evaluate sperm capacitation than the triple stain (p<0.01).

This paper aims to study the manufacturing process of polymer composite reinforced with shape memory metal alloys by RTM process using ANSYS CFX ® software. The mathematical modeling consists of mass and momentum conservation equations applied to a metal mold with dimensions 0.3 × 0.3 × 0.002 m³ containing ten NiTi alloy wires 0.0005 m diameter. Results of the flow front position of the resin (polyester resin mixed with calcium carbonate particles), pressure, streamlines and resin velocity fields during the process are presented and discussed. We conclude that the addition of calcium carbonate resulted in increased resin viscosity and greater inlet pressure obtained at the entrance of the mold which resulted in short time to full fill the mold and the highest pressures at the NiTi alloy wire surface were obtained in the central region and near the mold entrance.

In recent years most of the oil reserves discovered has been related to heavy oil reservoirs whose reserves are abundant but still show operational difficulties. This fact provoked great interest of the petroleum companies in developing new technologies for increasing the heavy oil production. Produced water generation, effluent recovered from the production wells together with oil and natural gas, is among the greatest potential factors for environmental degradation. Thus, a new scenario of the oil industry appears requiring improvement in treatment units for produced water. Among the technological improvements in the facilities, the use of hydrocyclones has been applied in the treatment of the oily water. In this sense, this study aims to investigate numerically the separation process of heavy oil from a water stream via hydrocyclone, using the computational fluid dynamics technique. In the mathematical modeling was considered a two-phase, three-dimensional, stationary, isothermal and turbulent flow. Results of streamlines, pressure and volume fraction fields of the involved phases (oil and water) into the hydrocyclone, and mechanical efficiency and pumping power of the fluids are shown and analyzed. In conclusion, it seems that with increasing fluid input velocity in the device there is an increase in pressure drop, indicating a greater pumping energy consumption of the mixture, and greatly influences the separation process efficiency.

Sloths are animals that suffer with the destruction and fragmentation of forests. They experience a low population growth rate and need to be studied further for the preservation of the species. The objective of this study was to contribute data relevant to the reproductive physiology of this species, selecting a semen collection method and evaluating seminal characteristics that have never before been described in the literature. Fifteen Bradypus tridactylus males were captured in Manaus, Brazil. Nine of them were captured during the first half of 2004 (Group 1) and the others during the second half (Group 2). The animals were anesthetized with an i.m. injection of a combination of ketamine (10 mg/kg) and xylasine (1 mg/kg). Semen was collected by electroejaculaton using a rectal probe designed for domestic cats. Electrostimulations were given with a 0-100 mA/0-12 V variable electrostimulator in sequences of three progressive intensities, with ten repetitions at each intensity and variation of 10 mA between them. They started with 20 mA and peaked at 60 mA. Each stimulus lasted about 3 s. It was not possible to define the best intensity of stimulus to use and ejaculation could take place at any time of the stimulation (Fishers exact test). Sperm motility and vigor were immediately analyzed. Sperm count was determined in a Neubauer chamber at a 1:50 (v:v) dilution in formol-saline. Morphology was examined at the same dilution. Fresh semen smears were made and stained using Spermac Stain® (Minitub, Tiefenbach, Germany) protocol for a better evaluation of the spermatozoa acrosome and midpiece. In both methods 200 cells were counted for morphological evaluation. All animals ejaculated approximately 30 ¼L to 90 ¼L of semen. In some ejaculates the semen was too thin and flowed down the penis, so that the volume effectively collected was not sufficient for a complete spermiogram. Spermatozoa presented a wide variety of defects, and some physical characteristics differed (not significantly) between samples collected during the first and second halves of the year. Motility and vigor were very low, the sperm did not show forward progression, only oscillatory movement. However, a high percentage (80%) of spermatozoa were moving. The concentration in Group 1 ranged from 5000 spermatozoa/mm3 to 685 500 spermatozoa/mm3 (mean ± 218 571.4 ± 242 499.4). Sperm concentation was not assessed in Group 2. The morphology of the head could be elongated or squared, or the head could have a base narrower than the apex. The tail showed a unique feature: the midpiece narrowed abruptly, forming a nip in its transition to the tail. This was similar in appearance to the segmental aplasia of the mitochondrial sheath, but it was considered normal because it was observed in all spermatozoa. Although further studies are necessary to standardize the semen evaluation of sloths and to define the best protocol for electroejaculation, this pioneering study has shown the characteristics of sloth spermatozoa and the possibility of collecting semen throughout the electroejaculation process in this species.

Adult skin and fetal fibroblasts are the most frequently used donor cell types for bovine cloning by nuclear transfer (NT) but there are few reports concerning Nelore cattle. The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro and in vivo viability of Nelore nuclear transfer embryos reconstructed with Metaphase II oocytes and differentiated somatic cells (adult ear and fetal fibroblasts). Oocytes from ovaries collected at slaughterhouse were matured in vitro for 17 h. Enucleation was conducted by aspiration of the first polar body (PB) and small volume of cytoplasm containing metaphase plate. For NT, each nucleus donor cell was inserted under the zona pellucida of each enucleated oocyte and the enucleated oocyte-nuclei donor cell complexes were electrofused (2 pulses of 4 KV cm-1 for 20 s). After electrical activation, the couplets were incubated in TCM199 plus 7.5% FCS supplemented with cycloheximide (10 g mL-1) and cytochalasin D (2.5 g mL-1) for 1 h and ciclohexemide alone for 4 additional hours. Immediately after activation, reconstructed embryos were co-cultured with granulosa cells in SOF + 5% FCS for 7–9 days. At 7th day of culture, some blastocysts were fixed for counting cells and some transferred into recipients. A total of 377 couplets were reconstructed from fetal and 457 from adult fibroblasts. After electrofusion, 138 (fetal cells) and 166 (adult cells) embryos were incubated, and 24 (17.4%) and 26 (15.7%) reached blastocyst stage, respectively. The blastocyst cell number means were 101.3, 120 and 114.3, respectively, for adult, fetal and IVF (control) embryos. There were no significant differences in the numbers of cells of blastocysts among the groups. After transferring 18 (fetal cells) and 21 (adult cells) blastocysts, pregnancy rates at day 90 were 16.7% (3) and 19% (4). There were no significant differences between pregnancy rates. The first pregnancy from fetal cells delivered a healthy male calf weighing 34 kg at Day 290. One of the remaining recipients died with hydrallantois at Day 229 and the other aborted at Day 252. There are four 5-month-pregnancies of adult fibroblast reconstructed embryos. These results indicate that NT embryos produced by fetal and adult fibroblasts of Nelore breed show similar rates of in vitro and in vivo developments.
