Antibacterial and antiviral activity of a highly efficient electrospun r‐PET nanofiber

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Since the COVID‐19 pandemic, the emergence of clean air has increased interest in developing antimicrobial air filters, targeting sterilization and public health concerns. Nanofibers are a promising approach due to their high efficiency in air filtration, while nanoparticles adhered to the fibre surfaces can improve safety due to the biocidal ...

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Genomic and Micro-Evolutionary Features of Mammalian 2 orthobornavirus (Variegated Squirrel Bornavirus 1, VSBV-1)

Microorganisms, 2021
Mammalian 2 orthobornavirus (VSBV-1) is an emerging zoonotic pathogen discovered in several exotic squirrel species and associated with fatal human encephalitis. The dynamics of VSBV-1 spread and evolution in its presumed natural hosts are unknown. Here,

The Antiviral Activity of Polyphenols

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Polyphenols demonstrate remarkable antiviral properties by effectively disrupting multiple biochemical processes essential for viral replication. ABSTRACT Polyphenols are secondary metabolites produced by a large variety of plants. These compounds that comprise the class of phenolic acids, stilbenes, lignans, coumarins, flavonoids, and tannins have a ...

“Molecular Docking and Dynamic Studies of Amide Derivatives from Cinnamic Acid with Potential Anti‐Dengue Virus Activity”

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
A library of easily synthesizable CAPE analogs was screened in silico against the dengue virus envelope protein. Compound LQM778 showed stable binding and promising inhibitory potential. This study highlights LQM778 as a candidate for future in vitro validation and structural optimization toward accessible antiviral agents against dengue.
