In Silico Selection and In Vitro Evaluation of New Molecules That Inhibit the Adhesion of <i>Streptococcus mutants</i> through Antigen I/II (2020)
Journal Article

Streptococcus mutans is the main early colonizing cariogenic bacteria because it recognizes salivary pellicle receptors. The Antigen I/II (Ag I/II) of S. mutans is among the most important adhesins in this process, and is involved in the adhesion to...

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a current major health issue, both for the high rates of resistance observed in bacteria that cause common infections and for the complexity of the consequences of AMR. Pathogens like Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomon... Read More about Production of Mannosylerythritol Lipids (MELs) to be Used as Antimicrobial Agents Against S. aureus ATCC 6538.

The effect of sophorolipids against microbial biofilms on medical-grade silicone (2020)
Journal Article
Ceresa, C., Fracchia, L., Williams, M., Banat, I., & Diaz de Rienzo, M. (2020). The effect of sophorolipids against microbial biofilms on medical-grade silicone. Journal of Biotechnology, 309, 34-43. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiotec.2019.12.019

Recent medical strategies rely on the search for effective antimicrobials as surface coatings to prevent and treat infections in humans and animals. Biosurfactants have recently been shown to have properties as antiadhesive and antibiofilm agents. So...
