چکیده
COVID-19 is a pandemic disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2, which continues to cause global health and economic problems since emerging in China late 2019. Until now, there are no standard antiviral treatments. Thus, several strategies were adopted minimize virus transmission, such as social distancing, face covering protection hand hygiene. Rhamnolipids glycolipids produced formally Pseudomonas aeruginosa biosurfactants, they shown have broad antimicrobial activity. In this study, we investigated activity of rhamnolipids against selected multidrug resistant bacteria SARS-CoV-2. growing strain LeS3 new medium formulated from chicken carcass soup. The isolated characterized for their molecular composition, into nano-micelles, antibacterial nano-micelles was demonstrated vitro both Gram-negative Gram-positive drug bacteria. silico studies docking structural non-structural proteins SARS-CoV-2 also performed. We efficient specific interaction with active sites these proteins. Additionally, computational suggested that membrane permeability obtained results indicate could be another target find utility fight COVID-19, future perspective considered.

and irregular hyperplasia with a pseudoepitheliomatous area. A highly dense, nodular, diffuse inflammatory infiltrate was observed at all levels of the dermis. It consisted of macrophages and numerous multinucleated cells, most of them of the foreign body type. Fibroplasia was also noted. Abundant, round parasitic elements surrounded by a double membrane and containing a basophilic nucleus were...

Nanoscale carriers of active compounds, especially drugs, need not be spherical in shape. Worm micelles as blends of degradable polylactic acid (PLA) and inert block copolymer amphiphiles were prepared for controlled release and initial study of carrier transport through nano-porous media. The loading capacity of a typical hydrophobic drug, Triamterene, and the release of hydrophobic dyes were ...
متن کاملHand sanitizer-dispensing door handles increase hand hygiene compliance: a pilot study.
Improving rates of hand hygiene compliance (HHC) has been shown to reduce nosocomial disease. We compared the HHC for a traditional wall-mounted unit and a novel sanitizer-dispensing door handle device in a hospital inpatient ultrasound area. HHC increased 24.5%-77.1% (P < .001) for the exam room with the sanitizer-dispensing door handle, whereas it remained unchanged for the other rooms. Techn...

Objective(s): Micelles have been studied as nanoparticulate drug delivery systems for improving the topical ocular delivery of hydrophobic drugs. The objective of this study was to develop and characterize dexamethasone-loaded polycaprolactone-polyethylene glycol-polycaprolactone (PCL-PEG-PCL) micelles to improve patient compliance and enhance the ocular bioavailability of poorly water-soluble ...
متن کاملAlcohol-free instant hand sanitizer reduces elementary school illness absenteeism.
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESES: A substantial percentage of school absenteeism among children is related to transmissible infection. Rates of transmission can be reduced by hand washing with soap and water, but such washing occurs infrequently. This study tested whether an alcohol-free instant hand sanitizer (CleanHands) could reduce illness absenteeism in school-age children. METHODS A...
