The firm and chief executive officer correlates of aggressive export behaviour were examined in a random sample of 45 Brazilian wood‐furniture manufacturers. Because of the importance of earning foreign exchange to make payments on international loans, the Brazilian government has made major efforts to stimulate firms to export. This study examines whether the characteristics of aggressive exporters under such stimulation are different from those found in other environments. The results indicate that governmental intervention does not materially affect the characteristics of aggressive exporters and that the aggressive‐passive dichotomous model is, with a few exceptions, valid under export stimulation programmes in Brazil. However, it was not possible to affirm that aggressiveness was correlated with firm export performance.

PDB Reference: bovine trypsin crystallized with B3C, 3iti, r3itisf.The magic triangle 5-amino-2,4,6-triiodoisophthalic acid (I3C) and the MAD triangle 5-amino-2,4,6-tribromoisophthalic acid (B3C) are two representatives of a novel class of compounds that combine heavy atoms for experimental phasing with functional groups for protein interactions. These compounds are readily available and provide easy access to experimental phasing. The preparation of stock solutions and the incorporation of the compounds into protein crystals are discussed. As an example of incorporation via cocrystallization, the incorporation of B3C into bovine trypsin, resulting in a single site with high occupancy, is described.

O solo utilizado nos estudos de sorção (latossolo vermelho) foi coletado em área rural, de localização 21° 56' 6" S 47° 54' 16", no município de São Carlos, estado de São Paulo. O solo foi seco à temperatura ambiente e posteriormente macerado, sendo, em seguida, armazenado em vidraria apropriada, esterilizada e devidamente etiquetada.Aproximadamente 300 g desse solo foi levada à mufla (EGG 1800) à 550oC por 4 h, a fim de eliminar a matéria orgânica presente. SORÇÃO DE DELTAMETRINA EM LATOSSOLO VERMELHO E SOLO CALCINADOOs ensaios de sorção foram realizados colocando-se 1,00 g de cada matriz em erlenmeyers de 150 mL e em cada frasco, adicionaram-se 10,0 mL de soluções em diferentes concentrações de deltametrina
