Harvesting the power of green synthesis: gold nanoparticles tailored for prosta...
Oliveira, Marco; Sousa, André; Sá, Sara; Soares, Sílvia; Pereira, Ana Cláudia; Rocha, Ana Catarina; Pais, Patrick; Ferreira, Diogo; Almeida, CátiaBiosynthetic gold nanoparticles (bAuNPs) present a promising avenue for enhancing biocompatibility and offering an economically and environmentally responsible alternative to traditional production methods, achieved through a reduction in the use of hazardous chemicals. While the potential of bAuNPs as anticancer agents has been explored, there is a limited body of research focusing on the crucial physicochemic...
Design of context-aware information systems in manufacturing industries: overvi...
Santos, Arlindo; Lima, Cláudio; Reis, Arsénio; Pinto, Tiago; Nogueira, Paulo; Barroso, João ManuelIn the last 30 years, several academic and commercial projects have explored the context-awareness concept in multiple domains. The concepts of ubiquitous computing and ambient intelligence are features associated with the fourth generation industry empowering space with the ability to interact and re-spond appropriately according to context. In the scope of Industry 4.0, context-aware systems aim to improve pr...
The history and applications of phage therapy in pseudomonas aeruginosa
Silva, Carina; Sá, Sara; Guedes, Carla; Oliveira, Carla; Lima, Cláudio; Oliveira, Marco; Mendes, João; Novais, Gonçalo; Baylina, Pilar; Fernandes, RubenThe Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the bacteria that cause serious infections due to resistance to many antibiotics can be fatal in severe cases. Antimicrobial resistance is a global public health concern. To solve this problem, interest in phage therapy has revived; some studies are being developed to try to prove the effectiveness of this therapy. Thus, in this opinion article, several historical aspects ar...
