Due to the inexorable invasion of our hospitals and communities by drug-resistant bacteria, there is a pressing need for novel antibacterial agents. Here we report the development of a sensitive and robust but low-tech and ...

Emergence of resistance among the most important bacterial pathogens is recognized as a major public health threat affecting humans worldwide. Multidrug-resistant organisms have not only emerged in the hospital environment ...

This work describes the morphology, corrosion resistance, and antibacterial performance of copper coating deposited onto carbon steel by cold gas spray (CGS). Cross-sectional images of the coating showed a dense microstructure, ...

Thirty six sesquiterpene lactones of the guaianolide and germacranolide-type from species of the Tribes Heliantheae and Vernonieae (Asteraceae) were evaluated for their antibacterial action. Thirty of them exhibited selective ...

The antibacterial activity of ten flavonoids, with variations in the hydroxylation pattern, was assayed in this study with the aim of investigating the influence of the hydroxyl groups of flavonoids on the evaluated activity. ...

The antimicrobials products from plants have increased in importance due to the therapeutic potential in the treatment of infectious diseases. Therefore, we aimed to examine the chemical characterisation (GC-MS) of essential ...
