Phytochemical and Biological Evaluation of Leaves, Stems, and Roots of Schinus weinmanniifolia Mart. Ex Engl.

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.
Ethanolic extracts from leaves, stems, and roots of Schinus weinmanniifolia Mart. ex Engl. were evaluated for phytochemical composition and biological activities. The extracts exhibited antioxidant, photoprotective, and antimicrobial activity, without hemolytic effects or cytotoxicity at active concentrations. Syringic acid, epicatechin, and rutin were

GNPS Untargeted GC‐MS Metabolomic Analysis of Essential Oils From Duguetia lanceolata and Evaluation of Antimicrobial Activity

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
Untargeted metabolomic analysis of the essential oil of D. lanceolata leaves collected in winter revealed that they are mostly composed of sesquiterpenes, while those collected in autumn showed a predominance of monoterpenes. Both essential oils displayed antimicrobial activity against bacterial and fungal species.

A murine model of Cryptococcus gattii meningoencephalitis [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2012
Meningoencephalitis caused by Cryptococcus gattii is associated with significant morbidity and the need for aggressive therapy, and often necessitates neurosurgical intervention. We adapted a previously described murine model of cryptococcal meningoencephalitis due to Cryptococcus neoformans to that caused by C.

Acute Toxicity and Genotoxicity of cMoL, a Lectin From Moringa oleifera Seeds With Antifungal Activity Against Cryptococcus Strains

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 682-696, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Coagulant Moringa oleifera lectin (cMoL) is one of the compounds involved in the application of M. oleifera seeds for traditional water treatment methods. The present study highlights the new biotechnological potential of cMoL lectin as an antifungal agent against Cryptococcus neoformans B3501 and H99 and Cryptococcus gattii R265 strains ...
