1. Silver complexes for tuberculosis treatment: a short review
This paper is a brief review of silver complexes that have been identified as antibacterial drugs with promising use for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB). This treatment aims to cure and discontinue the transmission of the disease. The excessive and inappropriate use of drugs has jeopardized the effectiveness of antibiotics for the TB treatment, bringing b

2. Análise da atividade antimicrobiana de probióticos e sua adesividade a bráquetes ortodônticos: estudo in vitro
Resumo Introdução A presença de aparelho ortodôntico fixo dificulta a higienização e potencializa o acúmulo de biofilme bacteriano nas superfícies dentárias. O desenvolvimento de produtos que minimize isso é desejo de pesquisadores em todo o mundo. Objetivo Verificar a ação bacterapêutica de produtos lácteos contendo ou não probióticos sob

3. Reactive oxygen species generation mediated by NADPH oxidase and PI3K/Akt pathways contribute to invasion of Streptococcus agalactiae in human endothelial cells
BACKGROUND Streptococcus agalactiae can causes sepsis, pneumonia, and meningitis in neonates, the elderly, and immunocompromised patients. Although the virulence properties of S. agalactiae have been partially elucidated, the molecular mechanisms related to reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in infected human endothelial cells need further investigati

4. Physical and chemical quality, biodiversity, and thermodynamic prediction of adhesion of bacterial isolates from a water purification system: a case study
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality of water purification system and identify the bacteria this system, predict bacterial adherence according to the hydrophobicity of these microorganisms and of the polypropylene distribution loop for purified water. The assessment of drinking water that supplies the purification system allowed g

5. Curli fimbria: an Escherichia coli adhesin associated with human cystitis
Abstract Escherichia coli is the major causative agent of human cystitis. In this study, a preliminary molecular analysis carried out by PCR (polymerase chain reaction) demonstrated that 100% of 31 E. coli strains isolated from patients with recurrent UTIs (urinary tract infections) showed the presence of the curli fimbria gene (csgA). Curli fimbria is known

6. Adherence and virulence genes of Escherichia colifrom children diarrhoea in the Brazilian Amazon
The bacterial pathogen most commonly associated with endemic forms of childhood diarrhoea is Escherichia coli. Studies of epidemiological characteristics of HEp-2 cell-adherent E. coli in diarrhoeal disease are required, particularly in developing countries. The aim of this study was evaluate the presence and significance of adherent Escherichia coli from di

7. Sub-MIC of antibiotics induced biofilm formation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in the presence of chlorhexidine
Public health is facing a new challenge due to the alarming increase in bacterial resistance to most of the conventional antibacterial agents. It has been found that only minor cell damage is caused when exposed to sub-lethal levels of antimicrobial. Biofilms can play an important role in producing resistance, which is developed to reservoirs of pathogens in

8. Etidronate from Medicine to Endodontics: effects of different irrigation regimes on root dentin roughness
An increase in dentin roughness, associated with surface composition, contributes to bacterial adherence in recontaminations. Surface roughness is also important for micromechanical interlocking of dental materials to dentin, and understanding the characteristics of the surface is essential to obtain the adhesion of root canal sealers that have different phy

9. Polyspecies biofilm formation on implant surfaces with different surface characteristics
Objective To investigate the microbial adherence and colonization of a polyspecies biofilm on 7 differently processed titanium surfaces. Material and Methods Six-species biofilms were formed anaerobically on 5-mm-diameter sterilized, saliva-preconditioned titanium discs. Material surfaces used were either machined, stained, acid-etched or sandblasted/acid-

10. Influência de pré-tratamentos de células epiteliais com penicilina e eritromicina na aderência e na viabilidade intracelular de Corynebacterium diphtheriae / Influence of epithelial cells pre-treatment with penicilin and erythromycin in adherence and intracellular viability of Corynebacterium diphtheriae
Diphtheria is a syndrome caused by Toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Although immunization programs have kept diphtheria under control in the great majority of developed countries, the disease remains endemic in many parts of the world, especially in individuals partially immunized to diphtheria toxoid. Additionally, an increase in the number of cases o

11. Quantitative analysis of S. mutans and S. sobrinus cultivated independently and adhered to polished orthodontic composite resins
In Orthodontics, fixed appliances placed in the oral cavity are colonized by microorganisms. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to quantitatively determine the independent bacterial colonization of S. mutans and S. sobrinus in orthodontic composite resins. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Seven orthodontic composite adhesives for bonding brackets were selected an

12. Aggregative adherent strains of Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum enter and survive within HEp-2 epithelial cells
Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum is a well-known human pathogen that mainly causes respiratory disease and is associated with high mortality in compromised hosts. Little is known about the virulence factors and pathogenesis of C. pseudodiphtheriticum. In this study, cultured human epithelial (HEp-2) cells were used to analyse the adherence pattern, inter
