Zika virus surveillance post‐epidemic in blood donors from São Paulo, Brazil 2016–2020

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Zika virus (ZIKV) is primarily transmitted through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, though transmission via blood transfusion has also been documented. During the 2015 ZIKV epidemic in Brazil, severe complications were observed in pregnant women, leading to fetal microcephaly. This study evaluated the persistence of ZIKV in

How do I interpret transfusion transmissible infectious disease testing in a low‐risk donor population?

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Blood donors represent a unique population. Pre‐donation screening questions, donor self‐deferral, and temporary deferral and re‐testing of repeat reactive donors result in lower prevalence of infectious disease compared to the general population.

Role of microRNAs in Arbovirus/Vector Interactions [PDF]

Viruses, 2014
The role of microRNAs (miRNAs) as small non-coding RNAs in regulation of gene expression has been recognized. They appear to be involved in regulation of a wide range of cellular pathways that affect several biological processes such as development, the immune system, survival, metabolism and host-pathogen interactions.

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

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 103, Issue 11, Page 5249-5263, November 2025.
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 ...

Standardized Bioassays to Better Understand the Invasion Dynamics of the Global Arbovirus Vector Aedes albopictus

Current Protocols, Volume 5, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The global spread of the arbovirus vector Aedes albopictus has become a major public health concern. In tropical regions, competitive interactions with native species such as Aedes aegypti may have influenced its invasive success. Understanding the bioecological drivers behind its establishment and spread is crucial for informing targeted ...
