To synthesize and evaluate the antifungal activity of poly(methacrylic acid)-silver nanoparticles (PMAA-AgNPs) against nine Candida albicans isolated from clinical specimens.The effects PMAA-AgNPs-fluconazole combination was analysed by checkerboard methodology. The synergistic potential determined fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI). inhibition germ tube formation determination PMAA-AgNPs cytotoxicity were also performed. All C. strains susceptible to resistant fluconazole. at...
Titanium is usually used in the manufacturing of metal implants due to its biocompatibility and high resistance corrosion. A structural functional connection between living bone surface implant, a process called osseointegration, mandatory for avoiding prolonged healing, infections, tissue loss. Therefore, osseointegration crucial success implantation procedure. Osseointegration mediated by bone-matrix progenitor cells' proteins, named integrins. In this study, we an silico approach assemble...
Pyrimidines and their derivatives are present in various biologically active molecules.Most of the synthetic methods employed to achieve pyrimidinone ring consist two stages: synthesis a Michael intermediate from an aldehyde "active methylene" containing compound; condensation this with molecule uranium moiety.This may take one days laboratory work.In paper we describe new methodology which these obtained via multicomponent mediated by ultrasound only 2 hours.In order obtain water-soluble...
Aedes aegypti is one of the mosquito species with major epidemiological importance in Brazil, involved transmission arboviruses such as Dengue, Chikungunya and Zika. Since well adapted to urban environments, where there are large amounts breeding sites for larvae pupae, its control has become increasingly difficult. 1996, usual made by using chemical larvicides, but continued use some these compounds led selection A. resistant populations. Therefore, search new insecticidal substances...
Objetivo: Avaliar in vitro a atividade de Staphylococcus aureus e Candida albicans em bases próteses convencionais à base polimetilmetacrilato metila com nanopartículas prata incorporadas sua composição. Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo experimental laboratorial resinas acrílicas autopolimerizáveis comercialmente disponíveis, Vipi Flash/VIPI JET/Clássico. Foram confeccionados 80 corpos prova, divididos 16 grupos (n = 5), referentes ao tipo resina, tratamento (incorporação imersão na solução...
Biosilicate and silver diamine fluoride were tested for remineralization through optical coherence tomography, surface staining CIELAB system in root caries. Both showed remineralization, however biosilicate lower staining.
Diversos agentes antimicrobianos foram desenvolvidos para curar e impedir doenças na higiene da saúde pública indústria biomédica. Entre eles, as nanopartículas de prata (AgNP) aprovadas como promissores em virtude do seu potencial biocida efetivo a não toxicidade o ser humano.
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have received great attention because of their unique characteristics and applications from basic to applied sciences. Recently, studies also shown as larvicides against Aedes aegypti larvae [1], which generates interest in public health due the annual outbreaks Zica virus Brazil, being associated with recent cases infants born microcephaly. We synthesized AgNP, using polymethacrylic acid (PMAA) a stabilizing reducing agent catalyzed by ultraviolet radiation. The...
