Um soldado na frente de batalha, um cientista no laboratório. A vanguarda de Aleksandr Rodchenko entre a cultura visual e a cultura política
Este artigo busca retomar o período anterior à adoção da fotografia como meio artístico privilegiado por Aleksandr Rodchenko (1891-1956), por entender que a fotografia significou não uma ruptura, mas, ao contrário, fez parte de uma experimentação visual mais abrangente que ele conduziu na década de 1920. Busca-se também recolocar esta produção artística dentro da cultura política com a qual travou um constante e íntimo diálogo. Ao refazer os caminhos que levaram Rodchenko da pintura à fotografia, buscamos assim melhor compreender e detalhar o compromisso político que animou a produção artística da época, e a de Rodchenko em particular, entendida então como uma práxis política e social mais ampla, da qual a fotografia foi uma das partes constitutivas

Existing and emerging cyanocidal compounds: new perspectives for cyanobacterial bloom mitigation
To help ban the use of general toxic algicides, research efforts are now directed towards the discovery of compounds that are specifically acting as cyanocides. Here, we review the past and look forward into the future, where the less desirable general algicides like copper sulphate, diuron or endothall may become replaced by compounds that show better specificity for cyanobacteria and are biodegradable or transform into non-toxic products after application. For a range of products, we review the activity, the mode of action, effectiveness, durability, toxicity towards non-target species, plus costs involved, and discuss the experience with and prospects for small water volume interventions up to the mitigation of entire lakes; we arrive at recommendations for a series of natural products and extracted organic compounds or derived synthetic homologues with promising cyanocidal properties, and briefly mention emerging nanoparticle applications. Finally, we detail on the recently introduced application of hydrogen peroxide for the selective killing of cyanobacteria in freshwater lakes
