The progressive increase in fungal infections and the decrease in the effectiveness of
current therapy explain research on new drugs. The synthesis of compounds with proven …

A series of new fluorinated 1-benzylisatins was synthesized in high yields via a simple one-
pot procedure in order to explore the possible effect of ortho-fluoro (3a), chloro (3b), or bis …

This work deals with the preparation and characterization of antimicrobial polymeric
composite materials based on polylactide, which is currently widely investigated to produce …

Background Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) is frequently isolated from root canals with
failed root canal treatments. Due to the strong ability of E. faecalis to resist many often-used …

Objectives This study assembled and characterized a dual nanocarrier of chlorhexidine
(CHX) and fluconazole (FLZ), and evaluated its antibiofilm and cytotoxic effects. Methods …

The contribution of different Candida species in oral fungal infections has stimulated the
search for more effective therapies. This study assessed the antibiofilm effects of …

Background Acanthamoeba keratitis is a painful, sight-threatening infection. It is commonly
associated with the use of contact lens. Several lines of evidence suggest inadequate …

Polylactide (PLA) materials treated with antimicrobial fillers represent a suitable alternative
to the production of medical devices. Their advantage is that they can prevent the growth of …

To investigate the mechanism of Triton X-100 (TX-100) reducing the Ag+-resistance of
Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis), and evaluate the antibacterial effect of TX-100+ Ag+ …

Dysbiosis of the oral microbiome resulting from the selective multiplication of pathobiont
Candida can lead to oral candidiasis, an infectious condition of the soft tissues of the oral …
