The study is grounded in the context of Open Innovation and the current legal framework, including the Innovation Legal Framework, the Startups Legal Framework, and the Public Procurement Law. As a result, a didactic and multidisciplinary guide was developed as a technological product. The research is justified by the need to democratize information related to innovation partnerships, as lack of awareness of legally established opportunities and concerns about bureaucracy are factors that hinder the formalization of partnerships, especially among entrepreneurs, startups, and small and medium-sized enterprises, which often lack clarity regarding technical, strategic, and regulatory criteria for developing collaborative initiatives. The main objective was to develop a guide with conceptual and practical guidelines that provides clear and applicable information on the planning, structuring, and execution of Open Innovation partnerships among actors within the innovation helices, in both public–private and private–private interactions, thereby making the regulatory, organizational, and strategic innovation environment in Brazil more accessible. The methodology adopted was applied research with a qualitative approach, conducted through document analysis, consolidation of innovation-related concepts, examination of relevant legislation, and incorporation of real-world examples, culminating in the development of the guide. Product validation was carried out through the application of a questionnaire to subject-matter experts, enabling both quantitative and qualitative analysis. The results indicate that the material contributes to expanding understanding of Open Innovation, reducing perceived uncertainties, and encouraging the pursuit of partnerships. It is concluded that the guide represents an accessible and integrated resource by articulating knowledge from management, innovation, entrepreneurship, and law, thereby fostering the promotion of collaborative and innovative partnerships in Brazil.

In this scenario the chemical element niobium has been gaining prominence. By forming various compounds that have refractory, mechanical and catalytic properties, the element has attracted attention from the most varied areas such as steel, electronics, battery and petrochemical sectors. However, materials that contain niobium and are soluble in water, some of which have low stability or are toxic, are not common. This study presents the process of synthesis, optimization, characterization and economic viability of a niobium-containing material that is soluble in water from a reaction of Nb2O5 and H3PO3, having in its composition niobium as the only metallic element. In this work was used several tools and techniques in each step: in optimizations were used Taguchi experimental designs, in characterizations were used x-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF), infrared spectrometry (IR), atomic emission spectrometry with microwave induced plasma coupled (MIP-AES), spectrometry in visible region of a phosphorusvanadomolibdic complex, and thermodynamic calculations. The results showed the material has presented good pH stability in a wide range (from 1,2 to 8,9), having a competitive relatively cost, with small residue and presenting NbPO4 as the calculated chemical formula called niobium phosphate III. Owing this features, it is concluded that the material shows good potential for high technological applications as catalysts and precursor for functionalized materials.

Abstract: The Fusarium genus is a complex of filamentous fungi widely distributed in nature, capable of causing agricultural losses and producing mycotoxins that threaten human and animal food safety. Although genomics has established itself as a tool superior to classical techniques for studying these microorganisms, the rapid expansion of public database repositories raises questions about the reliability and representativeness of this information. In this context, the present study aimed to evaluate the availability and quality of Fusarium genomic resources in the NCBI, as well as to perform a functional characterization of their pathogenic potential. The analysis of 1,923 assemblies revealed geographical and taxonomic asymmetries, highlighting the predominance of data produced by the Global North and a prevalence of data linked to the species F. oxysporum. In addition, a technical weakness was observed in the collection, marked by high genome fragmentation due to the predominant use of short-read technologies. Despite this, functional analysis demonstrated that, even with these limitations, there is a highly conserved core set of virulence genes in the genus. The mapping of genes essential for infection revealed a shared molecular basis, suggesting that the fungus's versatility is supported by stable mechanisms. Finally, it is concluded that, although the database needs revisions and new sequencing technologies, the current information already allows the identification of biotechnological targets and the development of strategies to control these diseases.

The research adopted an ethnographic, quantitative, and qualitative methodological approach. The findings revealed that the population of Uberaba lacks clear and accessible information regarding where and how to properly dispose of solid waste. In response to this scenario, a software application was developed and implemented in four of the twelve identified Voluntary Delivery Points (PEVs), all of which were pre-existing, distributed across different regions of the municipality, and integrated into the local community. It was observed that the population’s relationship with solid waste is strongly influenced by cultural and educational factors, as well as by socioeconomic conditions, governance, and public policies—or, in some cases, their absence. Thus, the research contributes to facilitating information exchange between the population and PEVs in Uberaba, with the potential to mitigate improper waste disposal and promote recycling cycles and the workers involved in them. This study may be further developed and expanded through future research dedicated to the theme addressed. Tipo: Dissertação 2024-02-24T00:00:00Z
