Coleta e preparo de amostras biológicas

Os exames laboratoriais são testes realizados em diferentes amostras biológicas e têm como objetivo apoiar diagnósticos e auxiliar no acompanhamento de desfechos clínicos e tratamentos. Em análises clínicas, qualquer variação, seja na amostra em si, seja no instrumento ou equipamento utilizado, pode alterar os resultados laudados e interferir na conduta médica, impactando diretamente a saúde do indivíduo. O trabalho realizado nas análises clínicas pode ser dividido em duas fases: a pré-analítica e a analítica, ambas fundamentais para garantir a qualidade e a confiabilidade dos resultados. Esta obra tem como foco a fase pré-analítica dos exames laboratoriais, apresentando, entre outros temas, os conceitos, técnicas e procedimentos envolvidos na coleta e preparo de amostras biológicas; os equipamentos e materiais utilizados; os cuidados e precauções necessários; e as possíveis fontes de erro e interferência. Didático e prático, este conteúdo foi desenvolvido pelo Senac São Paulo com o intuito de contribuir para a capacitação de estudantes e profissionais da área para atuarem com competência, segurança e qualidade no laboratório.

Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of South America Vol. 2

This volume, as the seventh of the series Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of the World, deals with the medicinal and aromatic plant (MAPs) treasures of the so-called Southern Cone, the three southernmost countries (Argentina, Chile and Uruguay) of South America. Similarly to the previous volumes of the series, the main focus is to collect and provide information on major aspects of botany, traditional usage, chemistry, production / collection practices, trade and utilization of this specific group of plants. The contributors, who are recognized professionals and specialist of the domain, have collected and present state of the art information on 41 species. Most of these are not only of interest from the scientific point of view, but hold also a potential for the prospective utilization of the decreasing, occasionally overexploited / endangered medicinal plant resources of this huge continent.
