Uso Da Análise Bibliométrica Como Ferramenta Para O Levantamento De Estudos Sobre a Metabolômica Aplicada Na Biorremediação De Áreas Impactadas Por Hidrocarbonetos

Abstract

USE OF BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS AS A TOOL FOR SURVEYING STUDIES ON METABOLOMICS APPLIED TO THE BIOREMEDIATION OF AREAS IMPACTED BY HYDROCARBONS. Bibliometric reviews, carried out from access to databases of scientific articles associated with software for data processing, can be helpful for qualitative and quantitative assessments of existing publications on a given topic. Several petroleum hydrocarbons are carcinogenic and immunotoxic agents, causing adverse effects on the biota, and the study of metabolites generated in bioremediation processes has been the object of current research. Therefore, in this work, the use of bibliometric analysis as a tool for surveying studies on the applied metabolomics bioremediation of areas impacted by hydrocarbons is presented. A bibliometric review was carried out in the Scopus Preview and Web of Science databases with data analysis using RStudio software with the bibliometrix package. The survey gathered the studies and prominent publications of the last seven years, making it possible to present gaps and opportunities in the area.
