1. How Much do the Environmental Conditions Interfere with the Essential Oils of Eugenia spp. L. (Myrtaceae)?
Eugenia is the largest neotropical genus in the Myrtaceae family. The genus has a wide geographical distribution, occurring from Mexico to Argentina. Eugenia species are rich in essential oils. Essential oils have applications in perfumery, cosmetics, food, pesticides and medicines. Several factors can influence the chemical composition and yield of essentia

2. Sunscreen lotions in the dermatological prescription: review of concepts and controversies
Abstract The skin is regularly exposed to several environmental aggressions, including solar radiation, whose biological effects can induce sunburn, dyschromia, skin aging and cancer. Among the photoprotection measures, sunscreens comprise a relevant part of the strategy aimed to prevent solar radiation damage and, for effective action, the patient must adhe

3. Microplastics in Latin America Ecosystems: A Critical Review of the Current Stage and Research Needs
The ubiquity of microplastics ecosystems has gained global attention. In this context, Latin America, which is responsible for 8% of the world’s consumption of plastic material and has a small recycling rate (4.5%), does not have enough data on microplastics contamination in its environmental matrices. This systematic review analyzed 196 studies from 16 te

4. Chromatographic Profiles of Ethyl Acetate Extracts Produced by Bacillus sp. Collected from the Mangroves in the Brazilian Northeast
The genus Bacillus is Gram-positive, anaerobic or aerobic facultative bacteria, often described to be associated with the mangrove rhizosphere. Secondary products of their metabolism, coming from places affected by pollution and environmental stresses, such as mangroves, have been attracting interest from the biotechnological point of view. In view of this s

5. Morphophysiological adjustments to shade of jaboticaba tree saplings
ABSTRACT We aimed to verify the morphophysiological changes in jaboticaba tree (Plinia peruviana (Poir.) Govaerts) saplings under shade gradient to improve knowledge on the appropriate light environmental conditions for the saplings production and field homogeneous or intercropping cultivation of this species. The saplings were grown under full sun and artif

6. Evaluation of sediment contamination by urban sewage in a stretch of Capibaribe River, Pernambuco, Brazil
Anthropic activities are responsible for the increase in environmental contamination, especially in aquatic systems, demanding studies to assess and monitor contamination levels in different water bodies. We have done a chemical characterization of eleven sediments in order to evaluate the level of contamination by domestic sewage from the Capibaribe River,

7. Reaching Circular Economy through Circular Chemistry: The Basis for Sustainable Development
Circular chemistry (CC) is an approach for establishing chemical processes to become truly circular and sustainable. It adopts the principles of circular economy (CE), employing life cycle approaches and systems thinking, which help to understand and address the sustainability issues of chemical processes and products. Within this whole context, it is possib

10. Advances in the knowledge of the natural history of aquatic plants in the Neotropics
ABSTRACT Until the mid-XX century, little awareness on the ecological services or socio-environmental problems and benefits related to aquatic plants culminated in bottlenecks on their natural history, especially for the Neotropics. In this context, Acta Botanica Brasilica (ABB) organized this special issue to promote the advancement of knowledge on this eco
