Cutaneous leishmaniasis is an infectious disease that causes disfiguring scars, which are not eliminated by drugs available to the treatment. Besides, these marks lead economic and social losses. Ozonated oil has wound healing activity as proven in literature, its use with standard treatment could enhance therapy. This study investigated ozonated sunflower adjuvant meglumine antimoniate (MA) of lesions caused Leishmania amazonensis. BALB/c mice were infected parasite, after appeared, they...

Staphylococcus aureus is among the major pathogens involved in food poisoning, and meat contaminated with S. coagulase positive considered a public health risk because bacterium resistant to several conventional antimicrobials. Mycocins are substances produced by yeasts that secrete glycoproteins, which can also be called toxin killers, they have an inhibitory action on other microorganisms. The Wickerhamomyces anomalus, one of microorganisms capable producing these mycocins, resulting...

The immune cross-reactivity between Trypanosoma cruzi, the protozoan that causes Chagas' disease, and Phytomonas serpens, a trypanosomatid infects tomatoes, was studied. Sera from patients with disease presented strong reactivity P. serpens antigens by conventional serological assays such as indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) direct agglutination test (DAT), confirmed after cross-absorption experiments. results show this is highly immunogenic rabbit mouse hyperimmune serum raised against T....

Trypanosoma cruzi is the agent of Chagas disease, an infection that affects around 8 million people worldwide. The search for new anti-T. drugs are relevant, mainly because treatment this disease limited to two drugs. objective study was investigate trypanocidal and cytotoxic activity elucidate chemical profile extracts from roots Lonchocarpus cultratus. Roots L. cultratus were submitted successive extractions with hexane, dichloromethane, methanol, resulting in LCH, LCD, LCM extracts,...
