Cyclodextrins as encapsulation agents for plant bioactive compounds
Pinho, Eva; Grootveld, Martin; Soares, Graça M. B.; Henriques, MarianaAbstract Plants possess a wide range of molecules capable of improve healing: fibre, vitamins, phytosterols, and further sulphur-containing compounds, carotenoids, organic acid anions and polyphenolics. However, they require an adequate level of protection from the environmental conditions to prevent losing their structural integrity and bioactivity. Cyclodextrins are cyclic oligosaccharides arising from the de...
Assessment of antimicrobial activity of textiles for wound dressing: methodolog...
Pinho, Eva; Grootveld, Martin; Soares, Graça M. B.; Henriques, MarianaNormally, the skin is capable of restore the tissue integrity, after wound injury. However, the deposition of bacteria on the wound site results on infection causing pain and healing delay. To control bacteria proliferation, antimicrobial textiles have been developed, and the assessment of their activity is a required step. Although, several standard methods were published to assess textiles antimicrobial activ...
