In vitro biological control of infective larvae of Ancylostoma ceylanicum
Fernandes,Fernanda Mara; Araújo,Jackson Victor; Braga,Fabio Ribeiro; Gazzinelli-Guimarães,Pedro Henrique; Araujo,Juliana MilaniThe aim of this study was to evaluate the predatory activity of the fungus Duddingtonia flagrans (AC001) on infective larvae of Ancylostoma ceylanicum after gastrointestinal transit in hamsters. Twenty animals were used in the experiment, divided into two groups: a treated group (10 animals) and a control group (10 animals). In the group treated with D. flagrans, each animal received mycelium from the AC001 iso...

Cardoso,Sandra Regina Afonso; Silva,João Carlos França da; Costa,Roberto Teodoro da; Mayrink,Wilson; Melo,Maria Norma; Michalick,Marilene Suzan MarquesImmunogenic proteins from nonliving promastigote polyvalent Leishmania vaccine against American tegumentary leishmaniasis (Leishvacin®), produced by Biobrás (Biochemistry of Brazil ), Montes Claros, State of Minas Gerais, Brazil, were identified and purified by polyacrylamide electrophoresis gel and electroelution. C57BL/10 mice were vaccinated with proteins with estimated molecular weights of 42, 46, 63, 66, 7...
