Estudo in vitro da inativação fotodinâmica dos microrganismos causadores da esporotricose
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2023-06-02)
Sporotrichosis is a zoonosis caused by Sporothrix spp., a fungus that causes a subcutaneous mycosis
which can become systemic in immunocompromised individuals. Conventional treatment is based on
the prolonged use of ...
Eficiência da ação fotodinâmica em Mycobacterium massiliense
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-03-30)
In Brazil there was an increase of post-surgical infections by rapidly growing mycobacteria, mainly Mycobacterium massiliense, leading the Agency for Sanitary Surveillance (ANVISA) to establish standards for the mandatory ...
Efeito de diferentes fotossensibilizadores no controle de Acanthamoeba polyphaga in vitro
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2013-08-29)
The photodynamic inactivation (PDI), used for biological control of microorganisms, involves the action of a photosensitizer (PS), activated by visible light, in order to oxidize organic substrates, resulting in cytotoxic ...
Co-cristalização da curcumina com d-manitol: caracterização e aplicações sobre larvas do Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762)
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-07-27)
The search for new compounds to eliminate Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae is a strategy used by several researchers. Brazil, for example, has been facing major problems due to the high number of cases of arboviruses transmitted ...
Avaliação do tempo de incubação do fotossensibilizador curcumina em Staphylococcus aureus e Pseudomonas aeruginosa na inativação fotodinâmica
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2013-04-02)
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) has been helping medicine in treatment infectious diseases and tumors. PDT's principle is based on a photosensitizer (PS) that is photoactivated by light at specific wavelength which generates ...
Efeito in vitro e in vivo da terapia fotodinâmica antimicrobial sobre streptococcus mutans presentes em acessórios metálicos ortodônticos
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2015-05-07)
Demineralization and caries are often present in patients with orthodontic braces due to the
increased accumulation of dental biofilm containing Streptococcus mutans, which produces
acids that attack the tooth surface. ...
Viabilidade da implementação em campo da atividade fotodinâmica da curcumina para o controle de larvas do Aedes aegypti
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2019-07-23)
The use of insecticides is indispensable for the control of vectors. Since the 1960s, organophosphates are applied against populations of Aedes aegypti. With the indiscriminate use of these substances during a long period ...
Mantas de fibras poliméricas eletrofiadas baseadas em poli(ácido láctico)(PLA) e borracha natural contendo curcumina visando aplicações como curativo cutâneo
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-01-26)
Although the use of antibiotics has been indispensable for the control of diseases in humans
and animals, their indiscriminate consumption has favored the appearance of bacteria resistant
to antibiotics. ...

(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2023-02-13)
Humanity has been plagued by infectious diseases throughout history and they remain one of the leading causes of death in the world. Fungal infections (FIs) represent an example of these emerging diseases, accounting for ...
Study of different curcumins for staphylococcus aureus antimicrobial photodynamic therapy
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2023-02-27)
Curcumin is a Photosensitizer (PS) used for microbial inactivation when light is applied. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a promising approach for treatment of bacterial infections, combining a PS + light to ...
