“…But in 1985, Graham Hutchings from the University of Cardiff, UK reported that the gold ions could catalyze the hydrochlorination reaction. Similarly, Masatake Haruta, from Tokyo Metropolitan University in Japan, later observed that in NP form gold could catalyze oxidation of carbon monoxide even at low temperatures of -76°C 19 . In recent years there has also been increasing interest in the use of silver NPs as antimicrobial agents.…”

“…The first evidence of metallic nanoparticles is from 2000 years ago when gold NPs were a part of ancient ayurvedic medicine in India 19 . 56 nm sized colloidal gold NPs, also called the swarna bhasmaI (gold ash) was mixed with honey or cow ghee and given orally to patients to treat a wide range of diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, bronchial asthma, diabetes mellitus and other diseases of the nervous system 19, 20 . The aesthetic property of gold NPs was later realized and exploited by the Romans.…”

“…3). The colored glass and bronze cup is dated to the 4 th century Roman Empire and shows a “dichroic” effect i.e the cup appears pea green in reflected light but in transmitted light it appears to be a deep wine red color 19, 21 . Studies conducted by the British Museum, which houses this work of art, report that the cup composite is an alloy of 70nm NPs containing 70% silver and 30% gold 21 .…”

“…Therefore, natural compounds are treasure troves for synthetic organic chemists and drug discovery researchers. 4 The oldest medical text comes from Mesopotamian ancestors, who described ca. 1000 plants, such as Commiphora myrrha, Papaver somniferum, and Cedrus sp, as being useful remedies.…”

Recebido em 22/5/12; aceito em 19/7/12; publicado na web em 26/10/12The use of natural products has definitely been the most successful strategy in the discovery of novel medicines. Secondary metabolites from terrestrial and marine organisms have found considerable use in the treatment of numerous diseases and have been considered lead molecules both in their natural form and as templates for medicinal chemistry. This paper seeks to show the great value of secondary metabolites and emphasize the rich chemical diversity of Brazilian biodiversity. This natural chemical library remains understudied, but can be a useful source of new secondary metabolites with potential application as templates for drug discovery.

One of the current trends of modern analytical chemistry is the miniaturization of the various tools daily used by a large number of researchers. Ultrafast separations, consumption of small amounts of both samples and reagents as well as a high sensitivity and automation are some of the most important goals desired to be achieved. For many years a large number of research laboratories and analytical instrument manufacturing companies have been investing their efforts in this field, which includes miniaturized extraction materials, sample pre‐treatment procedures and separation techniques. Among the separation techniques, capillary electromigration methods (which also include CEC), microchip and nano‐LC/capillary LC have received especial attention. Besides their well‐known advantages over other separation tools, the role of these miniaturized techniques in food analysis is still probably in an early stage. In fact, applications in this field carried out by CEC, microchip, nano‐LC and capillary LC are only a few when compared with other more established procedures such as conventional GC or HPLC. The scope of this review is to gather and discuss the different applications of such miniaturized techniques in this field. Concerning CE, microchip‐CE and CEC works, emphasis has been placed on articles published after January 2007.
