Journal ArticleDOI

Potential use of silver nanoparticles on pathogenic bacteria, their toxicity and possible mechanisms of action

TL;DR: The potential use of silver nanoparticles to control pathogens with emphasis on their action against pathogenic bacteria, their toxicity and possible mechanisms of action are evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Green tea extract mediated biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles: Characterization, cytotoxicity evaluation and antibacterial activity

TL;DR: Interestingly, at the concentration range in which the AgNPs showed an antibacterial effect, they were not toxic to HaCaT mammalian cells, suggesting green tea synthesized AgNPS could find important biomedical applications in the combat of pathogenic bacteria with low cytotoxicity to normal cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Swine and Poultry Pathogens: the Complete Genome Sequences of Two Strains of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and a Strain of Mycoplasma synoviae

Ana Tereza Ribeiro de Vasconcelos, +86 more
TL;DR: Genomic comparisons revealed that reduction in genome size implied loss of redundant metabolic pathways, with maintenance of alternative routes in different species, and indicated a likely transfer event of hemagglutinin-coding DNA sequences from M. gallisepticum to M. synoviae.
Journal ArticleDOI

The complete genome sequence of Chromobacterium violaceum reveals remarkable and exploitable bacterial adaptability

Ana Tereza Ribeiro de Vasconcelos, +97 more
TL;DR: The complete genome sequence reveals extensive alternative pathways for energy generation, complex and extensive systems for stress adaptation and motility, and widespread utilization of quorum sensing for control of inducible systems, all of which underpin the versatility and adaptability of the organism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanostructured silver vanadate as a promising antibacterial additive to water-based paints

TL;DR: In this article, the use of nanostructured silver vanadate as a promising antibacterial additive to water-based paints that has potential for applications in bathrooms, kitchens, and hospital environments was reported.
