Physical states and thermodynamic properties of model Gram-negative bacterial inner membranes
(2018-12-06)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialNovel antimicrobial agents are focused to interact with the bacterial membrane whose lipid composition (number and position of unsaturations and lipid headgroup) is adapted according to environmental signals. The anticipation ... -
Metal-enzyme nanoaggregates eradicate both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms
(2018-11-13)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialTo palliate the appearance of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), the use of bactericidal agents acting differently than conventional antibiotics and the elimination of bacterial biofilm, are the two most promising strategies. ... -
Smart sensing fabrics for live bacteria detection
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2018-11-27)
Article
Accés obertA smart textile for live bacteria detection of antimicrobial hospital tissues is here proposed. The capacity to detect viable bacteria is based on the use of Prussian Blue (PB) as electrochromic compound, with a clear ... -
Enzymatic synthesis of a thiolated chitosan-based wound dressing crosslinked with chicoric acid
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2018-10-26)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThis work describes the enzymatic synthesis of multifunctional hydrogels for chronic wound treatment using thiolated chitosan and the natural polyphenol chicoric acid. Gelation was achieved by ... -
New myeloperoxidase detection system based on enzyme-catalysed oxidative synthesis of a dye for paper-based diagnostic devices
(2018-10-21)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe severity and cost of wound infections strongly demands for simple and fast methods for wound infection determination. Point-of-care testing devices play a crucial role in order to achieve a fast diagnosis and early ... -
Thermodynamic behaviour of mixed films of an unsaturated and a saturated polar lipid : (Oleic Acid-Stearic Acid and POPC-DPPC)
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2018-06)
Article
Accés obertMixed fatty acids or mixed phospholipids systems with saturated-unsaturated hydrocarbon chains are of biological interest. In this work, the monolayers of oleic acid-stearic acid (OA-SA) and palmitoyloleoylphosphatidylch ... -
Bottom-up layer-by-layer assembling of antibacterial freestanding nanobiocomposite films
(2018-07-27)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialIn this study, freestanding nanobiocomposite films were obtained by the sequential deposition of biopolymer-capped silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and hyaluronic acid (HA). At first, dispersions ofAgNPs decorated with chitosan ... -
The Langmuir technique applied to the study of natural tears
(Springer, 2018-06-01)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialAs a new proposal, natural tears collected from the Schirmer strips were studied using surface pressure-area, p-A, isotherms obtained with the Langmuir technique. Parameters such as limit surface pressure, plimit, elastic ... -
Designing Peptidomimetics
(2018-07-02)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe concept of a peptidomimetic was coined about forty years ago. Since then, an enormous effort and interest has been devoted to mimic the properties of peptides with small molecules or pseudopeptides. The present report ... -
Blockade of the Interaction of Calcineurin with FOXO in Astrocytes Protects Against Amyloid-beta-Induced Neuronal Death
(2016-01-01)
Article
Accés obertAstrocytes actively participate in neuro-inflammatory processes associated to Alzheimer's disease (AD), and other brain pathologies. We recently showed that an astrocyte-specific intracellular signaling pathway involving ... -
Human blue cone opsin regeneration involves secondary retinal binding with analog specificity
(2018-03-27)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialHuman color vision is mediated by the red, green, and blue cone visual pigments. Cone opsins are G-protein-coupled receptors consisting of an opsin apoprotein covalently linked to the 11-cis-retinal chromophore. All visual ... -
Durable antimicrobial cotton textiles coated sonochemically with ZnO nanoparticles embedded in an in-situ enzymatically generated bioadhesive
(2018-02-14)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialAn important preventive measure for providing a bacteria-free environment for the patients is the introduction of highly efficient and durable antibacterial textiles in hospitals. This work describes a single step ...
