ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the possible renal and hepatic alteration by root canal filling pastes in mice. Material and Methods: Fifty-four mice were divided into nine groups and received one polyethylene tube implant containing two filling pastes (CTZ or calcium hydroxide pastes). Empty polyethyl...
Limonene is the main component of citrus essential oils, and can reach a concentration of up to 96%. Popularly known for its potential therapeutic effects on the body, among these we point out its broad antimicrobial activity against various types of pathogens. Therefore, the purpose of t...
Parasitic habit plants arouse great interest for their extraordinary growth adaptations and produce different secondary metabolites that allow them to survive the extreme conditions in which they develop. This can provide a range of compounds with multiple uses. However, those pla...

Abstract The species Eugenia involucrata DC. is a plant native to Brazil and is traditionally used for intestinal problems, however, little research has documented about its biological potential and phytochemical profile. Thus, the objective of this study was to carry out preliminary phytochemical prospe...
Abstract Several species of thymus have therapeutic properties, so they are used in traditional medicine. In this work was carried out to synthesize Thymus vulgalis silver nanoparticles (TSNPS) and evaluate antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of TSNPS and T. vulgalis essential oil extract (TEOE). Th...
Abstract Sepsis is described as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a host's response to infection, leading to an unbalance in body homeostasis. It is one of the leading causes of death in developed countries. Considering that in critically ill patients, such as those with sepsis, plasma conce...
Introdução: A terapia com medicamentos endovenosos é muito utilizada nas unidades hospitalares, porém, possui uma elevada chance de incidentes, principalmente quando os medicamentos são administrados simultaneamente em via Y. Essa prática pode resultar em incompatibilidades medicamentosas classific...
