Die potentiellen Precursor Magnesiumoxobromid bzw. Mangan(II,III)-oxopivalat für die noch unbekannten metallsubstituierten IRMOF-Homologen MOF-5(Mg) bzw. MOF-5(Mn) konnten erfolgreich synthetisiert und Charakterisiert werden. Deren experimenteller Einsatz zur Synthese der IRMOF-Homologen schlug jedoch fehl. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass unter den klassischen CSA-Reaktionsbedingungen sowie unter modifizierten Parametern keine Synthese der IRMOF-Homologen möglich ist. Diese Feststellung wurde mit der Diskussion um die Eigenschaften der Komplexe, der Metallionen sowie mit einer Aufarbeitung der dazu zugänglichen Literatur begründet. Es ist mit der Synthese der neuen MOF-177-Homologen MOF-177(Co) und MOF-177(Be) gelungen, die bereits bei MOF-5-Homologen eingesetzten Precursor und Parameter auf ein System anzuwenden, das nicht zu den Yaghi\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'schen IRMOFs gehört. Die Festkörper weisen mit ihren Oberflächenwerten SBET(MOF-177(Co)) = 3742 m²/g bzw. SBET(MOF-177(Be)) = 1816.4 m²/g klar mikroporöses Adsorptionsverhalten auf. Eine erste vereinfachte Anpassung der Kristallstrukturen an die experimentellen PXRDs konnte für beide MOFs vorgenommen werden. MOF-177(Co) zeigt wie auch MOF-5(Co) eine leicht vergrößerte Gitterkonstante. MOF-177(Be) konnte aufgrund der Verdrehung der Carboxylatgruppen am Berylliumoxocluster ausschließlich in röntgenamorpher Form hergestellt werden. Die Untersuchung der auftretenden Co-Spezies in reinen und mit Zinkprecursor gemischten Lösungen an Cobaltoxopivalat in den Lösungsmitteln Toluol brachte folgende Erkenntnisse: • Der im Feststoff dimere achtkernige Cobaltprecursor zerfällt während des Lösens in die vierkernige monomere Form und ist strukturanalog dem basischen Zinkcarboxylaten (Typ I). • Der Komplex unterliegt einem solvensabhängigem Komplexstabilitäts-gleichgewicht. Dieses ist aufgrund der koordinierenden Eigenschaften des DEF, in den DEF-Lösungen weiter in Richtung der Zersetzungsprodukte verschoben. In beiden Lösungen ist der Komplex zu über 90% undissoziiert. • Nur in DEF treten bei dem Zumischen verschiedener Zinkprecursor Metallaustauschreaktionen auf. Es ist somit die Existenz von vierkernigen Zn-Co-Mischclustern der allg. Form [CoyZn(4-y)O] bewiesen worden. • Es wurde nachgewiesen, dass beim Vorhandensein von Acetat und Pivalat Anionenaustauschreaktionen stattfinden und Komplexe der Form [CoyZn(4-y)O(Piv)xAc(6-x)] auftreten.

Starke elektronische Korrelationen und die daraus resultierenden vielfältigen Phänomenen sind Gegenstand der modernen Festkörperphysik. Solche Korrelationen finden sich in den verschiedensten Systemen vom Isolator über die Halbleiter bis hin zu Metallen. In dieser Arbeit werden die durch Korrelationen hervorgerufenen Phänomene in zwei niederdimensionalen Übergangsmetalloxiden und zwei intermetallischen Verbindungen mithilfe der HF-ESR untersucht. Die Elektronenspin-Resonanz (ESR) nutzt als lokale Messmethode den Spin der Elektronen als Sonde, um die magnetischen Eigenschaften im Umfeld des Elektrons und die Wechselwirkungen (WW) mit anderen Elektronen zu erforschen. Mit stärker werdenden Elektron-Elektron (EE)-Korrelationen kommt es (unter anderem) zu einer Verbreiterung der Resonanz, sodass, um die Resonanz zu beobachten, höhere Frequenzen bzw. größere Felder als in kommerziellen ESR-Spektrometern erreichbar, nötig sind. Mit der in dieser Arbeit genutzten Hochfeld/Hochfrequenz-Elektronenspin-Resonanz (HF-ESR) mit einem frei durchstimmbaren Frequenzbereich von $\nu=\vu{20- 700}{GHz}$ kann speziellen Fragestellungen nachgegangen werden, bei denen die Anregungsenergien im Bereich von $h\nu$ liegen oder Resonanz-Effekte bei hohen Felder beobachtet werden sollen. CaCu$_2$O$_3$ zeigt die gleiche Kristallstruktur wie \chem{SrCu_2O_3}, einem Lehrbuchbeispiel für eine 2-beinige Spin\textfrac{1}{2}-Leiter mit einem nichtmagnetischen Grundzustand und einer großen Spinlücke zum ersten angeregten Zustand. \chem{CaCu_2O_3} zeigt dagegen überraschenderweise einen antiferromagnetischen (AFM) Grundzustand mit einer relativ hohen Übergangstemperatur. Um der Ursache der AFM-Ordnung auf den Grund zu gehen, wurde eine kombinierte Studie der Magnetisierung und der HF-ESR an einer Reihe von Zn-dotierten \chem{CaCu_2O_3} durchgeführt. Im Gegensatz zum Sr-Material sind die \chem{Cu_2O_3}-Leiter-Ebenen durch einen geringeren Sprossenwinkel leicht gewellt, desweiteren zeigt \chem{CaCu_2O_3} eine nichtstöchiometrische Zusammensetzung \chem{Ca_{1- x} Cu_{2+x}O_3}, mit einem Überschuss von Cu von $x\sim 0.16$ im nichtmagnetischen \chem{Cu^{1+}}-Zustand, welches auf Ca-Plätzen sitzt. Wir werden zeigen, dass (i) die Extra-Spins im undotierten Material \emph{nicht} in den Ketten sitzen, sondern auf regelmäßigen Zwischengitterpositionen. Sie rekrutieren sich aus dem überschüssigen \chem{Cu^{1+}}, dessen Position in der Nähe einer O-Fehlstelle instabil wird, sich verschiebt und den Zustand in ein magnetischen \chem{Cu^{2+}} ändert, (ii) dass durch die Position der Extra-Spins eine Kopplung übernächster Spin-Leitern zustande kommt, welche die Frustration der Spin-Leitern aufhebt und einen AFM-Grundzustand mit solch hoher Übergangstemperatur erlaubt und (iii) dass diese Position der Extra-Spins die zusätzliche schwache kommensurable Spinstruktur erklären kann, die im AFM- Zustand neben der inkommensurablen Spinstruktur der Leiter-Spins beobachtet wurde. Das einfach geschichtete Manganat \textbf{LaSrMnO$_4$} ist ein zweidimensionaler Vertreter der Übergangsmetalloxide. In diesem Material gibt es starke Korrelationen zwischen dem orbitalen und dem magnetischen Freiheitsgrad, sodass die AFM-Ordnung unterhalb von $T_N\sim\vu{125}{K}$ mit einer ferro-orbitalen Ordnung der \chem{Mn^{3+}} $3d$-Orbitale einhergeht. Mithilfe der HF-ESR konnte die temperaturabhängige Mischung der $3d$-Orbitale direkt bestimmt und damit die Theorie der ferro-orbitalen Ordnung quantitativ bestätigt werden. Im AFM geordneten Zustand, unterhalb von $T_\text{stat}\sim\vu{40}{K}<T_N$ wurde eine starke feldabhängige Reduktion der Mikrowellen-Transmission beobachtet, deren Frequenzabhängigkeit ein direkter Hinweis auf ferromagnetische (FM) Polaronen ist, die durch die WW von zusätzlichen Ladungsträgern mit den AFM-geordneten Grundspins entstehen. GdNi$_2$B$_2$C Die intermetallische Verbindungen der Nickelborkarbide $R\chem{Ni_2B_2C}$ ($R$ - Seltene Erdmetalle) zogen seit der Entdeckung von Supraleitung in einigen dieser Verbindungen große Aufmerksamkeit auf sich. Sie zeigen hochkomplexe magnetische Phasendiagramme mit einem Wechselspiel zwischen Supraleitung und der damit konkurrierenden AFM-Ordnung mit unterschiedlichsten Spinstrukturen. Ein Grund für diese Komplexität ist die starke magnetische Anisotropie, die durch die Aufspaltung des $J$-Multipletts der $f$-Orbitale der $R$ im Kristallfeld hervorgerufen wird. Das nicht supraleitende \chem{GdNi_2B_2C} erhielt als Modell-System viel Aufmerksamkeit, da \chem{Gd^{3+}} mit einer halbgefüllten $4f$-Schale keine magnetische Anisotropie zeigen sollte. Die vorgestellte ESR-Studie an \chem{GdNi_2B_2C} wird jedoch zeigen, dass dieser vermeintlich reine Spinmagnet eine ungewöhnlich starke magnetische Anisotropie besitzt, die sich auf die hochkomplexe Bandstruktur zurückführen lässt. Das Einbeziehen dieser Resultate in die Modellierung des Systems wird helfen, die Abweichungen zwischen Modell und Realität zu erklären. YbRh$_2$Si$_2$ In diesem schwere-Fermionen-System, indem die magnetischen Yb ($4f$) ein regelmäßiges Kondo-Gitter aufbauen, konkurrieren die EE-WW und die Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida-(RKKY)-WW miteinander, sodass in diesem Material durch die Veränderung eines angelegten Magnetfelds $B$ und der Temperatur $T$ der Zustand von einer AFM-Ordnung, zu einem (paramagnetischen) Schweres-Fermion- (LFL) bzw. Nicht-LFL-Verhalten (NFL) eingestellt werden kann. Unterhalb der Kondo-Temperatur führt eine starke Hybridisierung von $4f$-Elektronen mit Leitungselektronen zu einer deutlichen Verbreiterung der ansonsten atomar-scharfen $4f$-Zustände, sodass die Entwicklung einer schmalen Elektronen-Spin-Resonanz im Kondo-Zustand von \chem{YbRh_2Si_2} sehr überraschend war. Da die bisher veröffentlichten ESR-Messungen vollständig im NFL-Bereich lagen, werden in dieser Arbeit HF-ESR-Daten vorgestellt, die einen tieferen Einblick in die Physik dieser Resonanz erlauben, da sie einen $B-T$-Bereich abdecken, in dem ein Übergang zum LFL-Bereich stattfindet. Die gemessenen $B$- und $T$-Abhängigkeiten der ESR-Parameter im NFL- und im LFL-Bereich weisen darauf hin, dass das Resonanz-Phänomen in \chem{YbRh_2Si_2} als Resonanz schwerer Fermionen betrachtet werden muss. / Strong electronic correlation and the resultant phenomena are object of interest in the modern solid state physics. Such correlation can be found in totally different systems from insulators and semiconductors to metals. This thesis presents HF-ESR studies of such phenomena in two low dimensional transition metal oxides and two intermetallic compounds. In ESR the electron spin is used as a local probe to measure the interaction between electrons and the magnetic properties nearby. With increasing electron-electron (EE) interaction the resonance becomes broader, so higher frequencies and higher magnetic fields as usual in commercial available ESR devices are needed to study strong EE interactions. With the used HF-ESR device with a frequency range $\nu=\vu{20-700}{GHz}$ special questions can be investigated where the excitation energies are in the order of $h\nu$ or the resonance effects in high magnetic fields can be explored. \textbf{CaCu$_2$O$_3$} have the same crystal structure as \chem{SrCu_2O_3}, a textbook example for a 2-leg spin-\textfrac{1}{2}-ladder with a nonmagnetic groundstate and a spin gap separating the excited state. Surprisingly \chem{CaCu_2O_3} shows an antiferromagnetic (afm) ground state with a relatively high transition temperature. To get a deeper insight in the unexpected afm ordering a combined magnetization and HF-ESR study was performed on a set of Zn-doped \chem{CaCu_2O_3} samples. Contrary to the Sr-compound in \chem{CaCu_2O_3} the \chem{Cu_2O_3}-ladder-layers are buckled due to a reduced rung angle. Furthermore it is a nonstoichiometric compound \chem{Ca_{1- x} Cu_{2+x}O_{3- \delta}}, with an excess of Cu in the order of $x\sim 0.16$ which is in the nonmagnetic \chem{Cu^{1+}}-state, sitting close to Ca-sites and a deficiency of oxygen $\delta\sim 0.07$. With this study one can show that (i) in the undoped compound the extra-spins, responsible for the magnetic Curie-Weiss-behavior, do not sit in the chains, they are sitting on low-symmetry interstitial sites. They recruit themselves from excess \chem{Cu^{1+}}, where the position becomes unstable close to a O-vacancy so they shift to a interstitial site and become \chem{Cu^{2+}}, (ii) the interstitial site of the extra-spins couple n.n. ladders inside a layer with a direct afm exchange path which lifts the frustration of the spin-ladders so that a afm order with such a high ordering temperature can happen and (iii) the regular interstitial site of the extra-spins explains the weak commensurate spin structure additionally found to the incommensurate spin structure of the ladder-spins in the afm ordered state The single layered manganate \textbf{LaSrMnO$_4$} is a two dimensional member of the transition metal oxides. In this compound a strong correlation between the orbital and magnetic degree of freedom can be found, so that the afm ordering below $T_N\sim\vu{125}{K}$ comes along with a ferro-orbital ordering of the \chem{Mn^{3+}} $3d$-Orbitals. With HF-ESR we have measured the temperature dependent mixing of the $3d$-orbitals and proved quantitatively the theory of ferro-orbital ordering. In the afm ordered state below $T_\text{stat}\sim\vu{40}{K}<T_N$ a strong field dependent decrease of the microwave transmission was observed. The frequency dependence of this phenomena could be explained by ferromagnetic polarons resulting from the interaction of additional charge carriers with the afm ordered spins. \textbf{GdNi$_2$B$_2$C} The intermetallic borocarbides $R\chem{Ni_2B_2C}$ ($R$ - rare earth metal) attract much attention due to the mutual interaction of superconductivity and afm ordering with complex phase diagrams. One reason for this complexity is the strong magnetic anisotropy coming from the splitting of the $J$-multiplets of the $R$'s $f$-orbitals in the crystal field. The nonsuperconducting \chem{GdNi_2B_2C} was widely explored because \chem{Gd^{3+}} with a half filled $4f$-shell should show no anisotropic behavior. The HF-ESR study on this system showed, that the assumed pure spin magnet have a uncommonly strong anisotropy which could be ascribed to a highly complex band structure. Involving this new information will help to adjust the model to the reality. YbRh$_2$Si$_2$ In this heavy fermion system where the magnetic Yb ($4f$) built up a regular Kondo-lattice here is a competition between electron-electron- and the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida-(RKKY) interaction. Thats why in this compound a afm ordered state, a (paramagnetic) heavy fermion (LFL) and a non-Fermi-liquid behavior can be established by changing the magnetic field $B$ and/or the temperature $T$. Below the Kondo-temperature $T^*$ a strong hybridization between the conduction electrons and the $4f$-electrons leads to a strong broadening of the otherwise atomic sharp $4f$-states. Thats why the observation of a small electron spin resonance below $T^*$ was very surprising. Because the yet published ESR-measurements are fully in the NFL-state, we performed HF-ESR measurements to study a $B-T$ area where a NFL-LFL crossover appears to get a deeper inside of the physics behind this resonance. The behavior of the measured $T$- and $B$-dependences indicate that this resonance phenomena in \chem{YbRh_2Si_2} is a resonance of heavy fermions.

Digitalisering och införandet av hälsoinformationssystem som digitala journalsystem har inneburit många fördelar inom sjukvårdssektorn jämfört med de äldre pappersjournalsystemen, exempelvis genom en ökad möjlighet både dela och spara patientinformation. Dock så har även en hel del problem uppkommit med deras införande, varav en av de större är att de digitala journalsystem som finns inte är anpassade efter klinisk sjukvård och vårdpersonalens arbetssätt. Sjuksköterskor är en av de största användargrupperna av dessa digitala journalsystem och de är även den arbetsgrupp som har hand om patienterna på vårdavdelning dygnet runt. Därmed är deras arbete även starkt knutet till patienternas säkerhet. Denna studie har undersökt vilka patientsäkerhetsrisker som användning av digitala journalsystem medför vid sjuksköterskearbete på vårdavdelning. Det gjordes med hjälp av en kvalitativ ansats där en litteraturstudie, intervjuer och deltagande observationer genomfördes. Studiens resultat har bidragit till en ökad förstående för de patientsäkerhetsrisker som användning av digitala journalsystem vid sjuksköterskearbete medför samt en ökad förståelse för den kontext som digitala journalsystem används i. / Digitalization and the introduction of health information systems (such as the electronic health records) has contributed to many advantages within the healthcare industry, especially compared to the old paper-based system. For instance, an electronic health record makes it easier to archive and share patient information, but the advances these systems contribute is also accompanied by its fair share of problems. One of the main problems being that there is a mismatch between the electronic health records in use and the way the healthcare personnel work. Nurses are one of the biggest user groups of the electronic health records and they are also providing healthcare to the patients admitted to hospital wards 24/7. That means that their work is tightly intertwined with patient safety. This study has examined risks for patient safety connected to the use of electronic health records during nursing practice at hospital wards. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach with a literature study, interviews and participatory observations. The result of the study has contributed to increased knowledge and insights regarding patient risks connected to the use of electronic health records during nursing practice at hospital wards as well as an increased understanding for the context in which the electronic health records are used.

ECF (Energy-Coupling Factor)-Transporter sind prokaryotische Aufnahmesysteme für Mikronährstoffe, die eine spezielle Gruppe von Transportern mit ATP-Bindekassette (ABC) darstellen. Sie beinhalten zwei asymmetrische Membranproteine, von denen eins (S) für die spezifische Bindung und Translokation des Substrates und das andere (T) für die Kopplung mit den ATPasen (A1,A2) zuständig ist. Bei ECF-Transportern der Subklasse I bilden diese Komponenten eine Einheit, während bei Vertretern der Subklasse II ein AAT-Modul mit wechselnden S-Einheiten interagiert. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde der Transportmechanismus, der eine Drehung der kompletten S-Einheit in der Membran beinhaltet, anhand des Biotintransporters BioMNY erstmals experimentell validiert. Durch Rekonstitution in Lipid-Nanodiscs, chemische Quervernetzung, fluoreszenz- und ESR-spektroskopische Techniken sowie einen Bindungstest mit radioaktivem Biotin wurde gezeigt, dass (i) die ATP-Bindung an die ATPasen zu einer Aufrichtung der S-Einheit (BioY) führt, (ii) diese Bewegung die Substratbeladung ermöglicht und (iii) BioY dabei ununterbrochen mit der T-Einheit (BioN) interagiert. Dies stellt einen Gegensatz zu Systemen der Subklasse II dar, für die ein ATP-abhängiger Austausch von S-Einheiten im Transportzyklus gezeigt worden war. Darüber hinaus wurde ein Escherichia coli-Stamm konstruiert, der durch Blockierung seines hochaffinen Biotintransporters und des -synthesewegs auf Spuren von Biotin nicht wachsen kann. Dieser Stamm ermöglichte einen eindeutigen Nachweis der Transportaktivität einiger solitärer BioY-Proteine. Aufgrund der einheitlichen Topologie von S-Einheiten ist ein Kippen auch für solitäre BioY-Varianten wahrscheinlich. Auch die metallspezifischen S-Einheiten CbiM und NikM besitzen ohne AAT-Modul eine basale Co2+- bzw. Ni2+-Transportaktivität. Ein ESR-spektroskopischer Kobaltnachweises zeigte, dass die aus nur zwei Membranhelices bestehende CbiN-Einheit für die Metallbeladung von CbiM essentiell ist. / ECF (Energy-Coupling Factor) transporters are a subgroup of ABC transporters that mediate uptake of micronutrients into prokaryotic cells. In contrast to canonical ABC importers, ECF transporters comprise two unrelated membrane proteins, one of which is responsible for specific and high affinity substrate binding (S) and the other one constitutes the coupling component (T) between S and the cytosolic ABC-ATPases (A1,A2). Subclass I transporters consist of four dedicated components whereas in subclass II transporters, a central AAT-module may interact with various S units. The biotin specific subclass I ECF transporter BioMNY was used to experimentally verify the hitherto hypothetic transport mechanism, which involves a rotation of the S unit within the membrane. With a series of experiments including reconstitution of BioMNY into lipid nanodiscs, site-specific cross-linking, a substrate binding assay with radioactive biotin and both fluorescence and EPR spectroscopic techniques, the ATP-dependent rotation of BioY (S) as a prerequisite for substrate binding and release was shown for the first time for an ECF transporter. Unlike subclass II transporters, for which an ATP-dependent release of the S unit was proposed, BioY interacts continuously with BioN (T) during the transport cycle. In a second focus of the work, an Escherichia coli reporter strain for biotin transporters was constructed. Due to inactivation of both biotin synthesis and the intrinsic high affinity biotin transporter, this strain was not capable of growing on trace amounts of biotin. With the use of this strain, transport activity of recombinantly produced solitary BioY proteins that naturally lack other ECF components was evidenced. Transport activity in the absence of AAT modules is also a feature of the Co2+ and Ni2+ specific S components CbiM and NikM. An EPR spectroscopic Co2+ detection assay helped underscoring the essential role of the small membrane protein CbiN for Co2+ loading of CbiM.

Há, no Brasil, uma enorme diversidade de espécies vegetais, e um conhecimento popular de várias propriedades medicinais das mesmas. Dentre os estudos realizados com extratos de plantas, há um interesse especial na atividade antioxidante. Este trabalho, focado em atividade antioxidante, é dividido em duas partes: a primeira, utiliza a técnica de RPE para estudar a ação dos antioxidantes neutralizando os radicais livres, enquanto que a segunda utiliza a TFD para, em simulação computacional, ajudar a entender os resultados obtidos na primeira parte. Foram analisados 10 extratos vegetais: Swartzia langsdorffii, Machaerium villosum, Pterogyne nitens, Maytenus ilicifolia (casca de raiz), Pera glabrata, Aegiphyla sellowiana, Copaifera langsdorffii, Chrysophyllum inornatum, Iryanthera juruensis (folhas e sementes), Didymopanax vinosum. O estudo da atividade antioxidante com RPE utiliza dois métodos diferentes: o primeiro método mede a atividade antioxidante por meio do controle da quantidade de radicais livres, TEMPOL e DPPH, em contato com o extrato vegetal, enquanto que o segundo método utiliza o spin trap DMPO em conjunto com a reação de Fenton (Fe2+ + H2O2 => Fe3+ + HO- + HO) para analisar a ação dos extratos vegetais contra o radical hidroxila (OH?). A simulação computacional dos compostos TEMPOL, DPPH e DMPO é realizada em um método de primeiros princípios na Teoria do Funcional da Densidade, com uso de pseudopotenciais. O código utilizado é o SIESTA. As conclusões indicam que o extrato de Iryanthera juruensis, tanto de folhas quanto de sementes, exibe atividades antioxidantes bastante acentuadas, em todos os métodos utilizados. A simulação computacional aponta o TEMPOL menos reativo que o DPPH, devido a menor energia liberada em sua reação de redução. Sabendo que algumas destas espécies já são usadas popularmente por propriedades medicinais, estudos futuros para a correta identificação do agente antioxidante e seu possível uso, tanto na indústria alimentícia quanto na farmacêutica, deverão ser realizados. / There is, in Brazil, a great diversity of vegetable species, and a popular knowledge of several medicinal properties of the some of them. In studies carried out with plants? extracts, there is special interest in antioxidant activities. This work, focused in antioxidant activity, is divided in two parts: the first uses EPR technique to study the antioxidant activities neutralizing free radicals, while the second one uses DFT, in computational simulation, to understand the results obtained from the first part. Ten vegetable extracts were analyzed: Swartzia langsdorffii, Machaerium villosum, Pterogyne nitens, Maytenus ilicifolia (bark root extracts), Pera glabrata, Aegiphyla sellowiana, Copaifera langsdorffii, Chrysophyllum inornatum, Iryanthera juruensis (leaves and seeds), Didymopanax vinosum. The study with EPR uses two different methods: the first method measures the antioxidant activity by monitoring the amount of free radicals, DPPH and TEMPOL, that are in contact with the plant extract, the second method uses spin trap DMPO with Fenton reaction (Fe2+ + H2O2 => Fe3+ + HO- + HO) for the study of the plant extract antioxidant activity against the hydroxyl radical (OH?). The computational simulation of TEMPOL, DPPH and DMPO is carried out using a method of first principles within the Density Functional Theory and pseudopotentials. The code is SIESTA. The conclusions indicate that the Iryanthera juruensis extract, as of leaves as of seeds, exhibits accentuated antioxidants activities, in all of the used methods. The computational simulation indicated that the TEMPOL is less reactive than the DPPH, because the lower energy in its reduction reaction. As some of these species are already used popularly by medicinal properties, future studies for correct identification of the antioxidant compounds and its possible use, as in the food industry as in the pharmaceutical industry, should be realized.

Os recentes avanços nas tecnologias de comunicação e computação viabilizaram o pronto acesso às informações do prontuário eletrônico do paciente (PEP). O potencial de difusão de informações clínicas resultante suscita preocupações acerca da priva-cidade do paciente e da confidencialidade de seus dados. As normas presentes na legislação dispõem que o conteúdo do prontuário deve ser sigiloso, não cabendo o acesso a ele sem a prévia autorização do paciente, salvo quando necessário para be-neficiá-lo. Este trabalho propõe o MACA, um modelo de autorização contextual para o controle de acesso baseado em papéis (CABP) que contempla requisitos de limita-ção de acesso ao PEP em ambientes abertos e distribuídos. O CABP regula o acesso dos usuários ao PEP com base nas funções (papéis) que eles exercem numa organi-zação. Uma autorização contextual usa informações ambientais disponíveis durante o acesso para decidir se um usuário tem o direito e a necessidade de acessar um re-curso do PEP. Isso confere ao MACA flexibilidade e poder expressivo para estabele-cer políticas de acesso ao PEP e políticas administrativas para o CABP que se adap-tam à diversidade ambiental e cultural das organizações de saúde. O MACA ainda permite que os componentes do PEP utilizem o CABP de forma transparente para o usuário final, tornando-o mais fácil de usar quando comparado a outros modelos de CABP. A arquitetura onde a implementação do MACA foi integrada adota o serviço de diretórios LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol), a linguagem de pro-gramação Java e os padrões CORBA Security Service e Resource Access Decision Fa-cility. Com esses padrões abertos e distribuídos, os componentes heterogêneos do PEP podem solicitar serviços de autenticação de usuário e de autorização de acesso de modo unificado e coerente a partir de múltiplas plataformas. A implementação do MACA ainda tem a vantagem de ser um software livre, de basear-se em componen-tes de software sem custos de licenciamento e de apresentar bom desempenho para as demandas de acesso estimadas. Por fim, a utilização rotineira do MACA no con-trole de acesso ao PEP do InCor-HC.FMUSP, por cerca de 2000 usuários, evidenciam a exeqüibilidade do modelo, da sua implementação e da sua aplicação prática em casos reais. / The recent advances in computing and communication technologies allowed ready access to the electronic patient record (EPR) information. High availability of clinical information raises concerns about patients privacy and data confidentiality of their data. The legal regulation mandates the confidentiality of EPR contents. Everyone has to be authorized by the patients to access their EPR, except when this access is necessary to provide care on their behalf. This work proposes MACA, a contextual authorization model for the role-based access control (RBAC) that considers the ac-cess restrictions requirements for the EPR in open and distributed environments. RBAC regulates user’s access to EPR based on organizational functions (roles). Con-textual authorizations use environmental information available at access time, like user/patient relationship, in order to decide whether a user is allowed to access an EPR resource. This gives flexibility and expressive power to MACA, allowing one to establish access policies for the EPR and administrative policies for the RBAC that considers the environmental and cultural diversity of healthcare organizations. MACA also allows EPR components to use RBAC transparently, making it more user friendly when compared with other RBAC models. The implementation of MACA architecture uses the LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) directory server, the Java programming language and the standards CORBA Security Service and Re-source Access Decision Facility. Thus, heterogeneous EPR components can request user authentication and access authorization services in a unified and coherent way across multiple platforms. MACA implementation complies with free software pol-icy. It is based on software components without licensing costs and it offers good performance for the estimated access demand. Finally, the daily use of MACA to control the access of about 2000 users to the EPR at InCor-HC.FMUSP shows the feasibility of the model, of its implementation and the effectiveness of its practical application on real cases.

This gives flexibility and expressive power to MACA, allowing one to establish access policies for the EPR and administrative policies for the RBAC that considers the environmental and cultural diversity of healthcare organizations. MACA also allows EPR components to use RBAC transparently, making it more user friendly when compared with other RBAC models. The implementation of MACA architecture uses the LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) directory server, the Java programming language and the standards CORBA Security Service and Re-source Access Decision Facility. Thus, heterogeneous EPR components can request user authentication and access authorization services in a unified and coherent way across multiple platforms. MACA implementation complies with free software pol-icy. It is based on software components without licensing costs and it offers good performance for the estimated access demand. Finally, the daily use of MACA to control the access of about 2000 users to the EPR at InCor-HC.FMUSP shows the feasibility of the model, of its implementation and the effectiveness of its practical application on real cases.

The SC is formed by anabolically dead cells, the terminally differentiated corneocyte, and its function is essentially accomplished by forming a highly insoluble protein structure on the surface of the corneocytes, termed the cornified cell envelope, and by impeding water diffusion across the SC by mortaring the corneocytes together by layers of skin-specific lipids, essentially ceramide, cholesterol and fatty acid. In this work the cell envelope of the SC was spin labeled with a sulfhydryl-specific nitroxide reagent to investigate the water content effects upon the protein dynamics directly in the intact tissue. A two-state model for the nitroxide side chain described the coexistence of two spectral components in the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra. The so-called strongly immobilized component, S, is associated with the EPR signal of a motionally restricted nitroxide fraction having its N-O group hydrogen bonded to protein (rigid structure) while the weakly immobilized component, W, corresponds to the signal provided by the spin labels with higher mobility (~10 times greater) exposed to the aqueous environment. The relative populations between these two mobility states, S and W, are in thermodynamic equilibrium. The standard Gibbs free energy, enthalpy and entropy changes for transferring the nitroxide side chain from the state contacting the solvent, W, to the one contacting protein, S, indicated that the reduction of the SC water content to below ~h 0.69, g H2O per g dry SC, stabilizes the protein interacting state, S. Upon decreasing the SC hydration level below ~h 0.69 the segmental motion of the polypeptide chains and the rotational motion of the spin-labeled side chain were also constrained. To test our methodology in a pure and very well known protein, we also studied the effects of two types of detergents on the bovine serum albumin (BSA). Both detergents, the anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and the zwitterionic N-hexadecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonium-1-propanesulfonate (HPS) increase the mobility of the protein backbone and of the nitroxide side chain. The thermodynamic parameters indicated that these detergents destabilize the protein favoring less compact conformations. This work can also be useful to improve the spectral analysis of site-directed spin labeling, especially for a more quantitative description in terms of thermodynamic parameters. / A camada mais superficial da epiderme, o Estrato Córneo (EC), tem como função principal a formação de uma barreira física que controla a perda de água do corpo bem como a permeação de outras substâncias em ambas as direções da pele. O EC é formado por células anabolicamente mortas, os corneócitos, os quais sofreram diferenciação celular terminal, e sua função é realizada formando uma estrutura de proteínas altamente insolúveis na superfície do corneócito, chamada de envelope celular, e também uma matriz lipídica, essencialmente ceramídios, colesterol e ácidos graxos, que dificultam a difusão da água. Neste trabalho, o EC foi marcado com marcadores de spin específicos para reagir com os grupos sulfidrilas das proteínas, para investigar os efeitos do conteúdo de água na dinâmica de proteínas diretamente no tecido intacto. Um modelo de dois estados para a cadeia lateral do nitróxido descreveu a coexistência de duas componentes espectrais de ressonância paramagnética eletrônica (RPE). A componente denominada fortemente imobilizada (S), surge de uma fração de marcadores com o átomo de oxigênio do nitróxido ligado à proteína (estrutura rígida) enquanto a componente fracamente imobilizada é gerada pelos marcadores com mobilidade mais alta (~10 vezes maior) e expostos ao ambiente aquoso. As populações relativas entre estes dois estados de mobilidade, S e W, estão em equilíbrio termodinâmico. Os parâmetros da termodinâmica: energia livre padrão de Gibbs, entalpia e entropia, envolvidos na transferência da cadeia lateral do nitróxido do estado W, contatando ao solvente, para o estado S, contatando a proteína, indicaram que a redução do conteúdo de água para abaixo de ~0.69g de H2O por g de EC seco, estabiliza o estado S (cadeia lateral do nitróxido dobrada sobre a cadeia principal da proteína). Ao diminuir o nível de hidratação para abaixo de ~ h 0.69 (g H2o/g EC seco) o movimento local da cadeia polipeptídica e o movimento rotacional da cadeia lateral do marcador de spin foram ambos reduzidos. Para testar nossa metodologia em uma proteína pura e bem conhecida, estudamos os efeitos de dois tipos de detergentes sobre a albumina do soro bovino (BSA). Ambos os detergentes, o aniônico dodecil sulfato de sódio (SDS) e o ziteriônico N-hexadecil-N,N-dimetil-3-amônio-1-propanosulfonato (HPS) aumentaram a mobilidade da cadeia principal da proteína e da cadeia lateral do nitróxido. Os parâmetros termodinâmicos indicaram que estes detergentes desestabilizam a proteína favorecendo conformações menos compactas. Os resultados do presente trabalho também podem contribuir para aprimorar a

The Complex cis- [RuCl2(NH3)4]Cl (CTRu(III)) have been tested against different kind of tumor cells, obtaining good results. Starting from promising results obtained with this compound, subsequent studies are required to understanding the mechanism by which it exerts specificity for tumor cells. In this article, we report the first application of absorption UV-Vis, Fluorescence and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, to study the complex CTRu(III) interaction with human serum albumin (hsA) and bovine serum albumin (bsA). Fluorescence measurements revealed strong proteinsbound complex with Ksv of 1.32 x 105 and 3.71 x 105 for hsA and bsA, respectively. EPR spectra from mono-nuclear Ru(III) complexes in buffer, showed a significant decrease in the overall signal intensity following the first aquation step, is consistent with the formation of oxo-bridged Ru(III) dimers. EPR spectra revealed that the BSA very rapid binding to the protein via covalent binding through ligand-exchange with protein side chains, likely with histidine imidazoles. On the other hand, the complex binds non-covalently in hsA, probably as a product of the oligomerization of the complex in hemin-biding pocket. Furthermore, two species are slowly formed by covalent binding of the complex with the histidine residues, producing a species of axial symmetry and the other rhombic symmetry. These bonds seem to arise from the interaction of the complex with the histidine residue located in the binding Sudlow’s site II. / Motivado pela perspectiva de complexos de rutênio podem ser utilizados no tratamento do câncer, o nosso grupo de pesquisa testou a Hipótese que alguns complexos de Ru (III) são capazes de interagir com as proteínas do soro, particularmente albumina e transferrina. O complexo de cis-[RuCl2(NH3)4]Cl (CTRu(III)) foi testado contra diferentes tipos de células tumorais, obtendo bons resultados. A partir de resultados promissores obtidos com este composto, estudos subsequentes são necessários para a compreensão do mecanismo pelo qual ele exerce sua especificidade para células de tumor. Neste artigo, apresentamos a aplicação de espectroscopia de absorção UV-vis, fluorescência e ressonância paramagnética eletrônica (RPE), para estudar a interação do complexo CTRu(III) com albumina sérica humano (hsA) e a albumina sérica bovina (bsA). Medidas de fluorescência revelaram uma forte ligação do complexo com as proteínas com Ksv de 1,32 x 105 e 3,71 x 105 para hsA e bsA, respectivamente. Espectros de RPE de complexos de Ru (III) mono-nucleares em tampão mostraram um decréscimo significativo na intensidade do sinal global após a primeira passo de aquação, que é consistente com a formação de dímeros de oxo complexos de Ru (III). Os espectros de RPE revelaram que a ligação à bsA é muito rápida, a ligação covalente à proteína ocorre através de troca dos ligantes com cadeias laterais de proteínas, provavelmente com o imidazol da histidina. Por outro lado, o complexo se liga não covalentemente na hsA, provalente como produto da oligomerização do complexo no bolso de ligação hemin. Além disso, duas espécies são formadas lentamente por ligação covalente do complexo com os resíduos histidina, produzindo uma espécie de simetria axial e a outra de simetria rômbica. Essas ligações parecem surgir pela interação do complexo com o resíduo histidina localizado no sítio de ligação Sudlow II.
