Journal ArticleDOI
Silver nanoparticles: A new view on mechanistic aspects on antimicrobial activity
Nelson Durán,Marcela Durán,Marcelo Bispo de Jesus,Amedea B. Seabra,Wagner José Fávaro,Gerson Nakazato +5 more
TL;DR: This overview incorporates a retrospective of previous reviews published from 2007 to 2013 and recent original contributions on the progress of research on antimicrobial mechanisms to summarize the current knowledge in the field of antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial activity of biogenic silver nanoparticles, and silver chloride nanoparticles: an overview and comments
TL;DR: To have relevant results on antimicrobial effects of biogenic silver-based nanoparticles, it is necessary to have a complete and adequate characterization of these nanostructures, followed by standard methodology in microbiology protocols.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synergistic and Additive Effect of Oregano Essential Oil and Biological Silver Nanoparticles against Multidrug-Resistant Bacterial Strains.
Sara Scandorieiro,Larissa Ciappina De Camargo,César Armando Contreras Lancheros,Sueli Fumie Yamada-Ogatta,Celso Vataru Nakamura,Admilton Gonçalves de Oliveira,Célia Guadalupe Tardeli de Jesus Andrade,Nelson Durán,Gerson Nakazato,Renata Katsuko Takayama Kobayashi +9 more
TL;DR: This study describes for the first time the synergistic and additive interaction between OEO and bio-AgNP produced by F. oxysporum against multidrug-resistant bacteria, such as MRSA, and β-lactamase- and carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli and Acinetobacter baumannii strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antifungal activity of silver nanoparticles and simvastatin against toxigenic species of Aspergillus.
Karla Carolina Paiva Bocate,Guilherme Fonseca Reis,Patrícia Canteri de Souza,Admilton Gonçalves de Oliveira Junior,Nelson Durán,Gerson Nakazato,Márcia Cristina Furlaneto,Ricardo Almeida,Luciano Aparecido Panagio +8 more
TL;DR: Assessment of the antifungal activity of biogenic silver nanoparticles (AgNPs, synthesized by fungi) and simvastatin (SIM, a semi-synthetic drug) alone and in combination against toxigenic species of Aspergillus reveals potential benefits of using combination of AgNPs and SIM to control fungal growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advances in Chromobacterium violaceum and properties of violacein-Its main secondary metabolite: A review
Nelson Durán,Giselle Z. Justo,Marcela Durán,Marcelo Brocchi,Lívia Cordi,Ljubica Tasic,Guillermo R. Castro,Gerson Nakazato +7 more
TL;DR: This review on violacein focuses mainly on the last five years of research regarding this target compound and describes production and importance of quorum sensing in C. violaceum, mechanistic aspects of its biosynthesis, monitoring processes, genetic perspectives, pathogenic effects, antiparasitic and antimicrobial activities, immunomodulatory potential and uses, antitumor potential and industrial applications.
