Two novel Mg(II)-based and Zn(II)-based complexes: inhibiting growth of human liver cancer cells

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 51 (2), 2018
Two new Mg(II)-based and Zn(II)-based coordination polymers, {[Mg3(BTB)(DMA)4](DMA)2}n (1, H3BTB=1,3,5-benzenetrisbenzoic acid, DMA=N,N-dimethylacetamide) and {(H2NMe2)2[Zn3(BTB)2(OH)(Im)](DMF)9(MeOH)7}n (2, Im=imidazole, DMF=N,N-dimethylformamide), have been successfully synthesized and structurally cha...

Effect of γ-lactones and γ-lactams compounds on Streptococcus mutans biofilms

J. appl. oral sci; 26 (), 2018
Abstract Considering oral diseases, antibiofilm compounds can decrease the accumulation of pathogenic species such as Streptococcus mutans at micro-areas of teeth, dental restorations or implant-supported prostheses. Objective To assess the effect of thirteen different novel lactam-based compounds on th...

Efficacy of commercial synthetic pyrethroids and organophosphates associations used to control Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus in Southern Brazil

Abstract This study evaluated the acaricidal efficiency of synthetic pyrethroids (SP) associated with organophosphates (OP) against Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus populations in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Southern Brazil. Ticks were collected in 54 cattle farms and tested using in vitro adult i...

Osteogenic potential of different chalcones in an in vivo model: a preliminary study

J. oral res. (Impresa); 6 (8), 2017
Aim. To evaluate the osteogenic potential of chalcones using the rat critical size calvarial defect. Methods. The chalcones were synthesized from acetophenone following the Claisen-Schmidt aldol condensation method by varying the substituted benzaldehydes (3,4-Cl; 4-Cl; 4-CH3; 4-OCH3, H). The five chalco...

Synthesis and evaluation of arylamidine derivatives for new antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 89 (2), 2017
ABSTRACT A series of arylamidines 3a-j was designed, synthesized and investigated for antimicrobial activity. Structures of the compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR and a 2D spectroscopic study was performed. A preliminary screening of the antimicrobial tests clearly showed that three out o...

A potent larvicidal agent against Aedes aegypti mosquito from cardanol

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 89 (1,supl), 2017
ABSTRACT Cardanol is a constituent of Cashew Nut Shell Liquid that presents larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti. The isolation of cardanol is somewhat troublesome, however, in this work we describe an efficient and inexpensive method to obtain it as a pure material. The compound was used as startin...

Toxicity of clove essential oil and its ester eugenyl acetate against Artemia salina

Braz. j. biol; 77 (1), 2017
Abstract The production of compounds via enzymatic esterification has great scientific and technological interest due to the several inconveniences related to acid catalysis, mainly by these systems do not fit to the concept of “green chemistry”. Besides, natural products as clove oil present...

Estudo espectroscópico da intercalação de aminoácidos em hidróxidos duplos lamelares: perspectivas astrobiológicas/Spectroscopic study of amino acid intercalation in layered double hydroxides: astrobiological perspectives

Entender como se originou a vida é um dos desafios propostos pela astrobiologia. Este trabalho busca compreender como argilas aniônicas do tipo hidróxidos duplos lamelares (LDH) interagem com alguns aminoácidos quando submetido a condições presentes no passado do nosso planeta. Para tanto, foi estu...
