Susceptibility of Trypanosoma cruzi to different Costa Rican snake venoms
(2008)
Se evaluaron los efectos tóxicos de los venenos de cinco serpientes costarricenses en
cuanto a su capacidad tripanocida contra dos cepas de Trypanosoma cruzi y sus efectos en cuanto
a los mecanismos de muerte celular. ...
Effect of Bothrops asper (Fer-De-Lance) snake venom on erythrocyte membrane. A comparative study
(1992-02)
1. The effect of Bothrops asper venom on erythrocytes of different species, sheep erythrocyte ghost vesicles and liposomes made of phospholipids from sheep erythrocytes was studied. 2. B. asper venom had a direct hemolytic ...
Effects of oxytetracycline on the performance and activity of biomixtures: Removal of herbicides and mineralization of chlorpyrifos
(2017)
Biopurification systems (BPS) are design to remove pesticides from agricultural wastewater. This work assays for the first time the potential effect of an antibiotic of agricultural use (oxytetracycline, OTC) on the ...
Snake Venomics of the Lesser Antillean Pit Vipers Bothrops caribbaeus and Bothrops lanceolatus: Correlation with Toxicological Activities and Immunoreactivity of a Heterologous Antivenom
(2008-10)
The venom proteomes of the snakes Bothrops caribbaeus and Bothrops lanceolatus, endemic to the
Lesser Antillean islands of Saint Lucia and Martinique, respectively, were characterized by reversephase
HPLC fractionation, ...
Components of the metabolic syndrome among a sample of overweight and obese Costa Rican schoolchildren
(2009)
Background. The term “pediatric metabolic syndrome” includes a cluster of cardiovascular risk factors such as insulin resistance, dyslipidemia (including increased triglycerides and decreased HDL cholesterol), hypertension, ...
Medicinal plants with inhibitory properties against snake venoms
(2005)
Envenomations due to snake bites are commonly treated by parenteral administration of horse or
sheep-derived polyclonal antivenoms aimed at the neutralization of toxins. However, despite the widespread
success of this ...
Intracellular passage triggers a molecular response in that increases its infectiousness
(2021)
Brucella abortus is a facultative extracellular-intracellular pathogen that encounters a diversity of environments within the host cell. We report that bacteria extracted from infected cells at late stages (48 h post-infection) ...
Fungicidal activity of a phospholipase A2-derived synthetic peptide variant against Candida albicans
(2007-09)
pEM-2, a 13-mer synthetic peptide variant derived from myotoxin II, a phospholipase A2 homologue present in Bothrops asper snake venom,
has shown potent bactericidal activity in previous studies due to the combination of ...
Biodegradation of sulfamethazine by Trametes versicolor: Removal from sewage sludge and identification of intermediate products by UPLC–QqTOF-MS
(2011-11-15)
Degradation of the sulfonamide sulfamethazine (SMZ) by the white-rot fungus Trametes versicolor was assessed.
Elimination was achieved to nearly undetectable levels after 20 h in liquid medium when SMZ was added at
9 mg ...
Increased Infectivity of Staphylococcus aureus in an Experimental Model of Snake Venom–Induced Tissue Damage
(2007-09-01)
Soft-tissue infection is commonly found in patients bitten by Latin American Bothrops snakes. Staphylococcus aureus, which is not present in the mouth of the snake, is frequently isolated from these infections. The effects ...
