Comparação de diferentes métodos de aplicação transepidérmica de metilaminolevulinato na terapia fotodinâmica com a luz do dia para tratamento de campo de cancerização cutâneo: estudo randomizado, controlado, clínico e histológico
A terapia fotodinâmica (TFD) com luz do dia tem eficácia semelhante à TFD convencional no tratamento das queratoses actínicas (QA). Bons resultados clínicos têm sido relatados quando associada a métodos de aplicação transepidérmica (transepidermal drug delivery - TED), como a aplicação de laser de …

Terapia fotodinâmica antimicrobiana utilizando ftalocianina de cloroalumínio em nanoemulsão em espécie de Candida albicans
… a ação antimicrobiana da terapia fotodinâmica (TFD) utilizando ClAlPc/NE, como agente fotossensibilizador (FS), em Candida albicans. A atividade antimicrobiana foi verificada pelo método de contagem de UFC/mL in vitro. 100μl (10⁶ UFC/ml) de C. albicans foram depositados em adição ao mesmo volume …

Control of Inflammation Using Drug Delivery Strategies in in vitro Models
… signals. </p> <p> Transcription factor decoys (TFD) are small nucleic acid sequences (~20 base pairs) that mimic the binding site for the TF on the native DNA, but do not encode for any proteins. By binding to the TF in the cytoplasm, TFD have potential to limit excessive immune signaling and …

The acid-catalyzed self-condensation reaction of b-diketones in the presence of 2,2,2-trifluorodiazoethane
… in the presence of 2,2,2-trifluorodiazoethane (TFD) has been discovered. This reaction is of interest because not many methods are available for the preparation of cyclized products (e.g., aromatic natural products) from 6-dicarbonyl units. Acid-catalyzed reactions of 1-phenyl-1,3-butanedione …

Forum Theatre as Theatre for Development in East Africa
Theatre for development (TfD) includes a variety of performance practices that aim to communicate or foster dialogue in a development context. Forum Theatre, developed by Brazilian Director Augusto Boal as part of his Theatre of the Oppressed movement has become one of the most widely used forms in …

Exploring theatre as a pedagogy for 'Developing Citizens' in English and Ugandan primary schools
… thesis is based on a Theatre for Development (TfD) project I led in two primary schools in England and Uganda, which invited pupils to create and share performance work about themselves and their communities both within and across the two locations. My analysis of this project brings together …

Desenvolvimento de hidrogéis à base de Carbopol 940® contendo sistemas de nanoprismas de prata/azul de metileno para inativação fotodinâmica de bactérias patogênicas
A Terapia Fotodinâmica (TFD) é uma abordagem promissora contra infecções bacterianas, baseada na interação entre um fotossensibilizador (FS), luz e oxigênio molecular. A inativação fotodinâmica (IFD) é uma estratégia eficaz contra microrganismos patogênicos, diferenciando-se da TFD pelo contexto de …
