Bifidobacteria naturally inhabit diverse environments, including the gastrointestinal tracts of
humans and animals. Members of the genus are of considerable scientific interest due to …

The COVID-19 pandemic is driving the search for new antiviral techniques. Bacteria and
fungi are known to be inactivated not only by ultraviolet radiation but also by visible light …

Photobiomodulation (PBM) uses low‐intensity visible or near‐infrared light to produce
beneficial effects on cells or tissues, such as brain therapy, wound healing. Still there is no …

Many in vitro models of neural physiology utilize neuronal networks established on two-
dimensional substrates. Despite the simplicity of these 2D neuronal networks, substrate …

In the present study, we assessed the bactericidal effect of a combination of blue light (BL)
and riboflavin (Rb) and elucidated the bacterial inactivation mechanism. Higher Rb …

We investigated vanadium, ie, a redox-active heavy metal widely known for the generation
of oxidative stress in cultured mammalian cells, to determine its ability to interfere with …

Objective Determine if oxidative damage increases in articular cartilage as a result of injury
and matrix failure and whether modulation of the local redox environment influences this …

Bioactive collagen crosslinkers propose to render the dentin hybrid layer less perceptive to
hydrolytic challenge. This study aims to evaluate whether bond strength of dental resin …

Mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) inhibition is a phenomenon interesting in itself
and serves as a tool for studying various cellular processes. Despite the fact that searching …

This study aimed to investigate whether use of a selective-blue-filtering (S-BF) lens can
protect cultured primary porcine RPE cells against photo-irradiation. Transmittance of S-BF …
