Bioaerossóis bacterianos em um hospital
(Revista de Ciências Farmacêuticas Básica e Aplicada, 2005-12-01) [Artigo]
Microbial contamination of an enclosed area may come from outside or be generated within the area itself. In the study described here, bioaerosol levels in hospital air were quantified and related to those found in the air ...
Assessment of the chemopreventive effect of casearin B, a clerodane diterpene extracted from Casearia sylvestris (Salicaceae)
(Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2013-03-01) [Artigo]
Studies have shown that Casearia sylvestris compounds protect DNA from damage both in vitro and in vivo. Complementarily, the aim of the present study was to assess the chemopreventive effect of casearin B (CASB) against ...
Microplate alamarblue assay for paracoccidioides susceptibility testing
(Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2013-04-01) [Artigo]
CLSI method M27-A3 is not available for use with dimorphic fungi, such as those of the Paracoccidioides genus. In this study, we developed a microdilution method and added the alamarBlue reagent to test the responses of ...
Avaliação do estresse oxidativo no sangue de consumidores habituais de suco de laranja
(Revista de Ciências Farmacêuticas Básica e Aplicada, 2011-11-14) [Artigo]
Two biomarkers of oxidative stress were evaluated in healthy volunteers treated with daily doses of orange juice that is well known source of vitamin C and citric flavanones, which have been associated with antioxidant, ...
Quantitative cell-cycle protein expression in oral cancer assessed by computer-assisted system
(Histology and Histopathology, 2006-07-01) [Artigo]
The knowledge of cell-cycle control has shown that the capacity of malignant growth is acquired by the stepwise accumulation of defects in specific genes regulating cell growth. Histologic diagnosis might be improved by a ...
The β-chemokines MIP-1α and RANTES and lipoprotein metabolism in HIV-infected Brazilian patients
(Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2005-08-01) [Artigo]
HIV patients are predisposed to the development of hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia as a result of both viral infection and HIV infection therapy, especially the protease inhibitors. Chemokines and cytokines ...

(Revista de Ciencias Farmaceuticas, 1993-12-01) [Artigo]
A study was carried out, on both sexes, to determine the effects of chlorpropamide (DIABINESE) and glibenclamide (DAONIL) on patients with Type II diabetes using as metabolic parameters the following serum: glucose, amilase, ...
Isolamento e caracterização de candida albicans e outras leveduras de águas de recreação não marinha e de materiais clínicos
(Revista de Ciencias Farmaceuticas, 1995-01-01) [Artigo]
Candida albicans and other yeasts from recreational water or clinical materials were isolated. Sixty-six water samples, originating from eight swimming pools and five lakes with beaches were examined for the presence of ...
In vitro antimicrobial efficiency of a mouthwash containing triclosan/gantrez and sodium bicarbonate
(Brazilian Oral Research, 2007-12-31) [Artigo]
Several antiseptic substances have been used as adjuncts to routine mechanical procedures of oral hygiene, based on their antimicrobial effects. The objective of this study was to assess in vitro the antimicrobial efficiency ...
Lipid peroxidation and antioxidant capacity of G6PD-deficient patients with A-(202G>A) mutation
(Genetics and Molecular Research, 2009-12-01) [Artigo]
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is an enzymopathy in which reduced NADPH concentrations are not maintained, resulting in oxidative damage. We evaluated G6PD activity, oxidative stress levels and Trolox ...
