RESUMO
Caprolactam is a highly useful monomer obtained through the Beckmann arrangement, which generates large profits worldwide and is widely used in different industries. During the synthesis process, various components can be generated that weaken the quality of the final product, to have control of the monomer, monitoring is carried out during the synthesis and characterization of the final product. These characterizations generally take time due to the different techniques that must be performed to obtain the data. In this work, a method is designed that associates different techniques to reduce the number of steps carried out in the tests to determine the quality of the material, optimize the times and generate a quality and efficient process in a shorter time, in addition, it is due to a semi-automated system for the simultaneous characterization of caprolactam, which, according to the statistical data obtained for sodium, iron, volatile bases, and moisture analysis were reproducible. The developed prototype had 21 on-line valves that allowed taking the representative volumes of samples and reagents necessary for each measurement. There is excellent linearity where the correlation coefficient has values between 0,9992 and 1. The values obtained for the relative error are between 0.18 and 2.24% for laboratory tests using the traditional method and between 0.21 and 3.83% for tests carried out using the prototype. The P value of the evaluation of the means was 0.997, indicating that the means are not statistically different.â¢Caprolactam analysisâ¢Process optimizationâ¢Determination of impurities.
RESUMO
Abstract Pseudomonas taiwanensis strain SJ9 is a caprolactam degrader, isolated from industrial wastewater in South Korea and considered to have the potential for caprolactam bioremediation. The genome of this strain is approximately 6.2 Mb (G + C content, 61.75%) with 6,010 protein-coding sequences (CDS), of which 46% are assigned to recognized functional genes. This draft genome of strain SJ9 will provide insights into the genetic basis of its caprolactam-degradation ability.

Two unusual caprolactam alkaloids, 3-(dimethylamino)hexahydro-2H-azepin-2-one and 3-(methylamino)-hexahydro-2H-azepin-2-one, were isolated from the aerial parts of Astragalus cryptanthus Wedd.; their structures were unambiguously determined based on data from extensive 1D and 2D NMR, GC-MS and FT-IR spectroscopic analyses. This is the first report of this alkaloid type in the genus Astragalus.

A ε-caprolactama (CAP) é um monômero precursor de polímeros denominados nylon 6. Esses polímeros destinam-se à produção de tapetes, vestuário e materiais plásticos tais como equipamentos, sistemas e componentes automotivos, conectores, além de embalagens plásticas. Resíduos de CAP podem migrar de embalagens plásticas de nylon 6 para os alimentos. Diante disso, foi de interesse realizar uma revisão dos efeitos relativos à exposição à CAP e o seu impacto sobre a saúde humana. Estudos epidemiológicos indicam a possibilidade da CAP causar inflamações oculares e cutâneas, além de irritações no sistema respiratório. Pode ocorrer ainda hipotensão, taquicardia, palpitações, rinorréia, ressecamento nasal, efeitos geniturinários e sobre a reprodução como distúrbios nas funções menstrual e ovariana, e complicações no parto; além de problemas neurológicos e hematológicos. Estudos com animais são consistentes com tais relatos. Os estudos de genotoxicidade in vitro e in vivo por via oral e intraperitoneal mostram em sua grande maioria, resultados negativos, bem como ausência de efeitos carcinogênicos em ratos e camundongos e sobre o desenvolvimento e reprodução em ratos e coelhos.
ε -Caprolactam (CAP) is a precursor monomer of nylon 6 polymers. Nylon 6 is used in the manufacture of carpets, clothes and plastic materials, such as equipment, systems and automotive components, connectors and plastic packaging. CAP residues can migrate from nylon 6 plastic packaging to foods. Given this fact, this review was realized concerning the effects of CAP exposure and its impact on human health. Epidemiological studies indicate that CAP could cause ocular, cutaneous and respiratory irritations, as well as hypotension, tachycardia, palpitations, rhinorrhea, nose dryness, neurological and blood problems, and genitourinary and reproductive effects, such as alterations in ovarian-menstrual functions and pregnancy/birth complications. Animal studies are consistent with such reports; however, the majority of in vitro and in vivo genotoxicity studies by oral and intraperitoneal routes show negative results, including the absence of carcinogenicity in rats and mice and developmental and reproductive effects in rats and rabbits.
