A presente obra demonstra como o avanço tecnológico impactou a área de Ciências Exatas, fazendo com que os seus profissionais, presentes em inúmeros setores, utilizassem os recursos disponíveis como aliados no desenvolvimento de suas atividades. Dentro deste contexto, apresentamos dezoito capítulos voltados ao estudo e à análise do avanço da tecnologia no campo das diversas profissões por elas abarcadas, bem como as vantagens de investir em recursos tecnológicos que se apresentem precisos, minimizando eventuais desperdícios, falhas, culminando, outrossim, em uma maior organização e produtividade, reconhecendo a necessidade da existência de profissionais devidamente qualificados, que se amoldem aos novos padrões apresentados pelo mercado de trabalho. A partir da leitura dos capítulos, verificar-se-á a multidisciplinariedade da ciência e tecnologia e, ainda, auxiliará a compreensão dos fundamentos para que possa ocorrer seu desenvolvimento de forma aliada aos processos manuais já existentes em nossa sociedade. Boa leitura.
The use of medicinal plants often symbolizes the only therapeutic resource of a community or group of people to establish quality of life and health, as they have bioactive compounds with therapeutic properties, there is a vast amount of plants spread throughout the territory, present in open markets, markets, and beyond the residential backyards. Popular observations on the use of medicinal plants are relevant to therapeutic action, even though we are not aware of all of its components. It emphasizes the care that must be taken with the identification of the desired species, the part that will be used, such as a flower, fruit, leaf, stem or root, as it can cause serious intoxication or poisoning. The main purpose of this study was to study the secondary metabolites of the species Mentha x villosa, Lippia alba, Cymbopogon citratus and Melissa officinalis, in addition to the quantification of their chemical and antimicrobial properties. The samples were acquired from desiccated leaves where tests were performed to determine moisture, total ash and acid-insoluble, showed the presence of cardiotonics, flavonoids, anthraquinones, saponins, alkaloids, tannins and antibacterial properties, as well as the quantification of the content of total flavonoids as a quality control reference for the species described above.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
