Phenylboronic Acids Probing Molecular Recognition against Class A and Class C β-lactamases

Antibiotics, 2019
Worldwide dissemination of pathogens resistant to almost all available antibiotics represent a real problem preventing efficient treatment of infectious diseases. Among antimicrobial used in therapy, β-lactam antibiotics represent 40% thus playing a

The role of detoxifying enzymes in the resistance of the cowpea aphid (Aphis craccivora Koch) to thiamethoxam

Journal of Plant Protection Research, 2016
The cowpea aphid (Aphis craccivora Koch) is considered a serious insect pest attacking several crops. We carried out biochemical studies to elucidate the role of the metabolising enzymes in conferring resistance to thiamethoxam, in two strains (resistant

Anti-Biofilm Inhibitory Synergistic Effects of Combinations of Essential Oils and Antibiotics

Antibiotics, 2020
In recent years, the increase of bacteria antibiotic- resistance has been a severe problem for public health. A useful solution could be to join some phytochemicals naturally present in essential oils (EOs) to the existing antibiotics, with the aim to ...

Glutathione and the Antioxidant Potential of Binary Mixtures with Flavonoids: Synergisms and Antagonisms

Molecules, 2013
Polyphenols are able to trap free radicals, which contributes to their known antioxidant capacity. In plant extracts, these secondary metabolites may act in concert, in a way that their combined activities will be superior to their individual effects ...

Stand-Alone and Combinatorial Effects of Plant-based Biostimulants on the Production and Leaf Quality of Perennial Wall Rocket

Plants, 2020
Modern agriculture is facing many difficulties due to a rapidly changing climate, and environmental damage from agricultural production. The commitment of scientists and farmers to increase environmentally sustainable agricultural practices is one way to

Biologic Synergism and Parallelism [PDF]

American Journal of Epidemiology, 1997
In epidemiologic studies of two binary exposure factors, much attention has been given to the concept of synergism of the factors. The leading dictionary of epidemiology offers two definitions of synergism, one of which this author labels statistical and the other biologic.

Synergistic Antipseudomonal Effects of Synthetic Peptide AMP38 and Carbapenems

Molecules, 2016
The aim was to explore the antimicrobial activity of a synthetic peptide (AMP38) and its synergy with imipenem against imipenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The main mechanism of imipenem resistance is the loss or alteration of protein OprD.

Insecticidal Synergism with Valone [PDF]

Nature, 1954
THE insecticidal properties of valone (2-isovaleryl 1,3-indandione) were being investigated some years ago1, when the material was apparently eclipsed by the discovery of DDT. Recent tests on insect pests of stored products have shown that, although not outstandingly insecticidal by modern standards, valone has an unusual combination of properties ...
