Pristine Multi-walled carbon nanotubes for a rapid and efficient plasmid DNA cl...
Ferreira, P.; Riscado, M.; Bernardo, S.; Freire, M.G.; Faria, J.L.; Tavares, A.P.M.; Silva, C.G.; Sousa, F.Therapeutic approaches based on nucleic acids to modulate cell activity have recently gained attention. These molecules arise from complex biotechnological processes, requiring effective manufacturing strategies, high purity, and precise quality control to be used as biopharmaceuticals. One of the most critical and time-consuming steps for nucleic acids-based biotherapeutics manufacturing is their purification,...

Doença de Lyme - Forma rara de apresentação
Ramos, P.; Fernandes, C.; Moreira, J.; Ventura, A.; Riscado, M.The authors present the case of a 32 year old male presenting the classic features of Erythema Chronicum Migrans. Significant titles for Borrellia burgdorferi were then obtained. After an antibiotic triai with tetracycline a good response was obtained, with a quick disappearance of ali skin lesions. ln two months time new secondary skin lesions of Lyme disease, together with a bilateral and intense peri-orb...
