Graduated in Chemistry at the Institute of Chemistry of the University of São Paulo and PhD in Chemistry (Analytical Chemistry, with emphasis in Environmental Chemistry) at the same university. She was a visiting professor at the Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK, USA, from June 1992 to June 1994, where developed the project "Use of chemically modified electrodes with enzymes for kinetic study of consecutive reactions," with FAPESP grant, and at the Université de Nantes in Nantes, France, in 1996, where developed the project " Use of biosensors for analysis of pesticides in soil and water systems," with FAPESP grant. She is an associate professor at the University of São Paulo, at the Institute of Chemistry of São Carlos, University of São Paulo, since 1989. She heads the following topics: environmental chemistry, cycling of organic matter, vermicomposting, wastewater treatment, bioherbicides assessment, chemistry of humic substances, recycling of agro-industrial waste and chemistry teaching.

The project presented here focuses on the consortium between hydroponics and aquaculture: aquaponics. In aquaculture, there is a need for water exchange, rich in nutrients of high agronomic potential, which are useful for agriculture and can be harmful if discarded inappropriately in the environment. Aquaponics includes food production, using fish and plants in a symbiotic environment, wi…
The use of organic waste in agriculture is a global trend to produce food. This form of production underscores the absence of industrialized chemicals in the agricultural production system. In addition, it adds value to wastes before undesirable, turning them into inputs. A sustainable practice and cost-effective is the use of biofertilizers. Biofertilizer is the designation given to the …

Industrial activity for leather production generates large amount of potentially polluting waste, rich in organic and inorganic toxic substances, especially chromium. This scenario is present in several regions of Brazil, especially the mesoregion of Bauru - São Paulo State, Brazil, polo reference in this industry segment. Waste generated in leather processing and production comprises mai…
In Brazil, citrus production has significant numbers that reflect the major economic and social activity has for the economy, such as: 1 million hectares of planted area and fruit production that exceeds 19 million tons, the highest in world a few years ago. The numbers are also significant as the intensive use of herbicides, including glyphosate and deltamethrin. The deltamethrin ((S)-±-…
The main objective of this project is to evaluate the contamination of water bodies, soils and sediments of orange crops with pesticides, namely glyphosate and deltamethrin. For this monitoring will be done prior to the type of crop used in areas near the collection sites in order to know the need for more monitoring of pesticides. Samples of water and sediments occur in at least two peri…
