As part of a Ministry Science, Technology, and Innovation initiative, the Brazilian Societies Botany, Microbiology, Virology, Zoology conducted comprehensive evaluation biological collections in Brazil. This assessment aimed to gather insights into current state these collections, with goal providing support for future public policies, including financial subsidies prioritization policies. In this context, we present findings related microbiological essential ex situ biodiversity...
Biological collections and biobanks are essential for scientific research innovation, supporting various fields such as health sciences, biotechnology, food agriculture. They preserve provide diverse organisms, biological materials their associated data, enabling the study of biodiversity, diseases, evolution ecological functions. These crucial addressing global challenges like biodiversity loss, sustainable feed production, human health, including understanding variations in pathogenic...
Abstract Reference materials are crucial for laboratory quality assurance. They widely used the internal control of analytical tests, in validation methodologies and as test items proficiency tests. Microbiological reference represented mainly by strains, whose use is unquestionable recommended several microbiological manuals. In Brazil, practice producing has advanced recent years development specific testing. However, same did not occur with establishment strains due to a lack incentive...
Mycobacterium abscessus subps. bolletii (clone BRA100), entre outras micobactérias de crescimento rápido (MCR), tem sido isolada como agente etiológico infecções localizadas e sistêmicas no Brasil. Neste estudo, foi avaliada a suscetibilidade MCR pelo método confirmatório para Avaliação da Atividade Micobactericida Desinfetantes frente produtos à base glutaraldeído, ácido peracético ortoftalaldeído. Todos os foram utilizados nas concentrações recomendadas pelos fabricantes. Foram avaliadas...
As part of a project ordered by the Ministry Science, Technology and Innovation Brazil, an assessment Brazilian biological collections was conducted Societies Botany, Microbiology, Virology Zoology to obtain data on current state these collections. The goal provide subsidies for future public policies, including financial support prioritization policies. Herein, we present results microbiological collections, which play fundamental role in ex situ conservation biodiversity research,...
Considering the absence of standards for culture collections and more specifically biological resource centers in world, addition to certified material Brazil, this study aimed evaluate a Fungal Collection from Fiocruz, as producer reference Biological Resource Center (BRC). For evaluation, checklist based on requirements ABNT ISO GUIA34:2012 correlated with NBR ISO/IEC17025:2005, was designed applied. Complementing implementation checklist, an internal audit performed. An evaluation BRC...
On account of a study developed in Sanitation Sector at the National Institute Quality Control Health Oswaldo Cruz Foundation, concerning evaluation antimicrobial activity disinfectants, present investigation analyzed disinfectant products general use which are available Brazilian market. Of disinfectants randomly collected, three them (products A, B and C) showed microbial contamination. The contaminant microorganisms isolation identification were performed by using equipment Vitek® 2, rRNA...
Surface disinfectants are considered a major tool for preventing the spread of infections in human populations. Changes Brazilian law 2007 allowed use various methodologies to evaluate microbiological quality surface disinfectants, warranting studies efficacy and application other methodologies, such as those recommended by European Committee Normalization (ECN). The present study aimed establish ECN assessment general disinfectants. use–dilution (UD) method Association Official Analytical...
