Plasticizers are chemical additives that confer flexibility, lightness, and durability to plastic polymers. Over the past decade, commonly used phthalate plasticizers such as Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and Bisphenol A (BPA) have been increasingly restricted in food packaging, toys, and medical devices due to their well-documented health risks, including endocrine disruption and imp…
Fluorescence microscopy is an important tool in the study of biological samples, with applicability in various research fields including experimental microbiology, cell cultures, in vivo experimental studies, and ecotoxicology, areas that encompass the projects associated with the present proposal. Furthermore, the requested microscope has potential applications for the identification and…
Recently, the relationship between the metabolization of environmental pollutants and the mammalian gut microbiota profile, capable of altering the activity, distribution and half-life of these xenobiotics has been described. It is known that the gut microbiota matures over the first years of the child's life, being the birth pathway, if vaginal or cesarean, the main factor interfering in…
Agrochemicals are the most widely used synthetic chemicals in the world. They are used to minimize pests that interfere with production of most agricultural crops. Since 2009, Brazil is the country that uses the largest quantities of agrochemicals in the world. Residues from these products contaminate food, soil and water, leading the entire world population to environmental exposure. Now…

The gut microbiota (GM) is the group of microorganisms that inhabit the gastrointestinal tract of mammals, including humans. It plays a role in the host's organism, such as regulating energy balance and development and modulation of the immune system. Eubiosis corresponds to the balance between the MI and the host, while the disturbance of this balance is called dysbiosis. The birth pathw…
The growing anthropogenic activity of large-scale production and use of plastic materials, associated with inadequate disposal, as well as resistance to degradation and decomposition in general, has contributed to the creation of an unsustainable and worrying scenario of pollution. These plastic waste, when released into the environment, undergo several chemical and physical changes, whic…

Gut microbiota is formed by a complex and diverse community of microorganisms that inhabit the digestive system of humans and animals, responsible for inducing immune responses after stimulus. A healthy and diverse microbiota is found in the state of eubiosis. In contrast, the state of dysbiosis indicates the imbalance between microorganisms and the host, resulting in several disturbances…
Antineoplastic drugs, used to treat cancer, act to prevent tumor growth by controlling cell divisions. They may interact with the DNA of cancer cells, causing metabolic and morphological changes, leading to cell death. However, they do not act selectively, resulting in undesirable side effects such as genotoxicity, mutagenicity and even carcinogenicity. It is known that the consumption of…

The interaction between the gut microbiota (GM) and the xenobiotics, i.e. man-made chemical compounds that are foreign to the organism, is described as a bidirectional pathway, being one path the ability of the compound to alter the GM composition, and the other the ability of the GM to alter the metabolization of the xenobiotic. Among the xenobiotics, environmental pollutants deserve spe…
