Alternative treatment of fungal infections: Synergy with non-antifungal agents
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-03)
Fungal infections are responsible for high mortality rates in immunocompromised and high-risk surgical patients. Therapy failures during the last decades due to increasing multidrug resistance demand innovative strategies ...
Antifungal stewardship in low- and middle-income countries
(Springer Nature, 2019-07)
Anfifugal stewardship refers to coordinated interventions designed to improve and measere the appropiate use of antifungals by promouting the selection of the optimal antifungal drug regimen,dose,duration of therapy,and ...
Cationic surfactants as antifungal agents
(Springer, 2018-10-29)
Fungi—in being responsible for causing diseases in animals and humans as well as environmental contaminations in health and storage facilities—represent a serious concern to health security. Surfactants are a group of ...
Structure-activity relationship study of homoallylamines and related derivatives acting as antifungal agents
(Elsevier, 2006-03-15)
The synthesis, in vitro evaluation, and structure-activity relationship studies of homoallylamines and related derivatives acting as antifungal agents are reported. Among them, compounds N-(4-bromophenyl)-N-(2-furylmethyl)amine ...
Efficient synthesis under mild reaction conditions of novel 3-aryl-5-(4-chloro-2-morpholinothiazol-5-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazoles and their antifungal activity alone and in combination with commercial antifungal agents.
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2014-04)
The a,b-unsaturated carbonyl compounds 5a–f were prepared by reaction between 2-chloro-4- morpholinothiazol-5-carbaldehyde 3 and substituted acetophenones 4a–f. Treatment of compounds 5a–f with hydrazine hydrate employing ...
Synthesis and antifungal activity of some substituted phenothiazines and related compounds
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2011-01)
Several phenothiazines and related compounds were synthesized and their antifungal activity was evaluated in vitro. The results observed for α-chloro-N-acetyl phenothiazine led us to choose this compound as a lead in the ...
Composite Films Based on Silver-Zeolite/Polymer as Efficient Antifungals
(Wiley, 2020-09)
This work analyzes the preparation and antifungal behavior of composite films formed by a mixed matrix of Ag-zeolite crystals immobilized in a continuous polymer phase. The physicochemical qualities of films prepared with ...
