Applied Methods to Assess the Antimicrobial Activity of Metallic-Based Nanoparticles
With the rise of antibiotic resistance, the drive to discover novel antimicrobial substances and standard testing methods with the aim of controlling transmissive diseases are substantially high. In healthcare sectors and industries, although methods for

Development of an in vitro drug screening assay using Schistosoma haematobium schistosomula [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The development of novel antischistosomal drugs is crucial, as currently no vaccine and only a single drug is available for the treatment of schistosomiasis.

Resazurin and its derivatives.
Resazurin (A) is irreversibly reduced to fluorescent resorufin (B) by electrons liberated from hydrogen gas by [FeFe] hydrogenase. C12-resazurin (C) is identical to resazurin except for an additional hydrophobic twelve-carbon tail.

Validation of a modified fluorimetric assay for the screening of trichomonacidal drugs
A fluorimetric microassay that uses a redox dye to determine the viability of the flagellate Trichomonas vaginalis has been optimised to provide a more sensitive method to evaluate potential trichomonacidal compounds.

On the relationship between the observed dynamics of a colorimetric indicator and the nonlinear dynamics of the population growth under study in the case of microbial cultures [PDF]
The resazurin test is one of the most widespread approaches for studying the growth and metabolic activity of microorganisms. It is based on the colour change of the blue indicator, resazurin, to its pink reduced form, resorufin due to the reduction ...

Antibiofilm activity of Streptomyces toxytricini Fz94 against Candida albicans ATCC 10231 [PDF]
Candida albicans is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients worldwide. Biofilm formation by Candida species is a significant virulence factor for disease pathogenesis.

Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.
