Novel Wide‐Spectrum Virucidal Lipid Nanoparticles
POSTAN is a novel broad‐spectrum antiviral nanoparticle that combines safety with potent virucidal activity. Composed of biocompatible lipids, it mimics heparan sulfate proteoglycans and lipid rafts exploited by viruses, thereby dismantling viral envelopes and blocking replication.

Chikungunya virus was isolated in Thailand, 2010 [PDF]
Chikungunya fever (CHIKF) is an acute febrile illness caused by a mosquito-borne alphavirus, chikungunya virus (CHIKV). This disease re-emerged in Kenya in 2004, and spread to the countries in and around the Indian Ocean.

Dengue, chikungunya and Zika virus surveillance in blood donors in Brazil, 2019–2021
Abstract Background and Objectives Arbovirus infections are a major public health concern in Brazil and an ongoing blood safety concern. Periodic outbreaks of such infections are common in the general population. This study aimed to establish the rates of dengue, chikungunya and Zika virus (DENV, CHIKV, ZIKV) RNAemia among blood donors at six public ...

AbstractConcomitant circulation of dengue and chikungunya viruses has been sporadically reported and needs to be individually diagnosed. Several sensitive molecular diagnostics are currently deployed for the diagnosis of both DENV and CHIKV, it is very difficult to delineate the two viral infections based on symptomology, as both share similar clinical

Increased number of cases of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection imported from the Caribbean and Central America to northern Italy, 2014 [PDF]
SUMMARYThis report describes an increased number of cases of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection imported in northern Italy (Emilia-Romagna region) during the period May–September 2014, indicating that the recent spread of CHIKV and its establishment in the Caribbean and in central America, resulted in a high number of imported cases in Europe, thus ...

Bee products as alternatives in the treatment of viral infections
Abstract Medicines used in the treatment of viral infections usually reduce symptoms. There is a need to develop drugs that inhibit the viruses and do not merely relieve the symptoms. Natural bee products possess many pharmacological properties and are widely used in folk medicine. There are many studies on the antibacterial effects of bee products but

Epitaxial piezoelectric α‐quartz/Si BioNEMS sensors, made using soft chemistry, effectively detect the Chikungunya virus. They have a mass sensitivity of 205 pg Hz−1 in liquid and can detect the virus at a limit of 9 ng mL−1. This development enables high‐frequency mass devices for point‐of‐care testing in healthcare and other electronic applications ...

Reemergence of Chikungunya Virus in Cambodia
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), probably Asian genotype, was first detected in Cambodia in 1961. Despite no evidence of acute or recent CHIKV infections since 2000, real-time reverse transcription PCR of serum collected in 2011 detected CHIKV, East Central ...

Detección de virus Chikungunya y Zika en animales: Revisión sistemática y meta-análisis [PDF]
La primera descripción de muchas enfermedades arbovirales se produjo en primer lugar en animales, incluidos múltiples alfavirus y flavivirus, como el Chikungunya (CHIKV) y el Zika (ZIKV), respectivamente.

A simple and general photoactivatable approach is developed to regulate DNA polymerase activity, enabling light‐start isothermal amplification on demand. The molecular dynamics simulations reveals that the photocaged primer blocks DNA polymerase activity by inhibiting the conformational change of the polymerase.
