Since many of the relevant aspects of Gram-negative bacteria behavior (including pathogenicity), such as in case of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa and Burkholderia Multivorans, can be...

We propose the characterization of functionalized Fe3O4 iron oxide-gold (Au-Fe3O4) nanoparticles for simultaneous cancer imaging and chemotherapy, as a novel theranostic system....

The applications of surfactant formulations based on N,N dimethylalkylamine oxides (AO) are dramatically increasing. The most widely used AO is the N,N-dimethyldodecyl-1-amine...

Melanins are the major determinants of pigmentation of skin, hair and eyes in humans. These pigments originate from the tyrosinase-catalyzed oxidation of tyrosine, leading to...

Lipopolysaccharides are amphiphilic macromolecules indispensable for the growth and the survival of Gram-negative bacteria, one of the most diffuse classes of pathogenic...

Poly(vinyl alcohol) is a biocompatible water-soluble polymer of great interest thanks to its large-scale applications for production of drug-delivery systems, sensors or...

Proposal is focused on the study of the interactions of some lypopolysaccharides (LPSs) with Lactoferrin. LPSs compose about 70-80% of the outer membrane of Gram negative...

Nowadays, Fe3O4 iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4 MNPs) have attracted attention as highly performing contrast agents for Magnetic Resonance Imaging technique (MRI), aiming to...

A short peptide, composed of 12 amino acids (EFVFVAHAVPVM), presenting a strongly hydrophobic character, was recently isolated from Lactobacillus gasseri supernatant (AMP12)....
