Candida auris is a multidrug-resistant fungus known to be global public health problem. The skin-based transmission, together with the marked resistance drugs, resulted in its rapid spread all continents. aim of this study was identify an essential oil (EO) active fight against C. auris. A total 15 EOs were tested 10 clinical strains Cinnamomum zeylanicum EO (CZ-EO) most effective (MIC90 and MFC90 equal 0.06% vol/vol). Three fractions obtained from CZ-EO, cinnamaldehyde (CIN), major chemical...
The extensive use of antibiotics has contributed to the current antibiotic resistance crisis. Livestock infections
The increasing resistance of fungi to antibiotics is a severe challenge in public health, and newly effective drugs are required. Promising potential medications lipopeptides, linear antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) conjugated lipid tail, usually at the N-terminus. In this paper, we investigated vitro vivo antifungal activity three short myristoylated non-myristoylated derived from mutant AMP Chionodracine. We determined their interaction with anionic zwitterionic membrane-mimicking vesicles...
Background/Objectives: In recent years, antimicrobial resistance has become a major threat to global health, and scientific research aiming identify new therapeutic resources is priority. Essential oils (EOs), obtained from spices belonging the culinary tradition, like Carum carvi essential oil (CC-EO), are of great interest for their activity, but methods used evaluate efficacy need be standardized. The aims this work were following: (i) best microbiological in vitro test; (ii) surfactant;...
A modern painting is characterized by multi-material bases extremely exposed to biodeteriogenic attacks. The aim of this work was test the antifungal effectiveness a natural, eco-friendly, and safe emulsion based on Citrus aurantium L. var. amara hydrolate Cinnamomum zeylanicum Blume (from bark) essential oil, named "Zeylantium green emulsion" (Zege), paintings. Colored unaged aged canvas samples, performed with techniques (acrylic, vinylic alkyd), were used in vitro both Zege its impact...
Functionalized nanoparticles (NPs) represent a cutting edge in innovative clinical approaches, allowing for the delivery of selected compounds with higher specificity wider time frame. They also hold promise novel theranostic applications that integrate both diagnostic and therapeutic functions. Pathogens are continuously evolving to try escape strategies designed treat them.
Onychomycosis (OM) accounts for about 50% of nail disorders in industrialised countries. Essential oils (EOs), aromatic natural compounds, are known their antimicrobial activity.
