Synergistic Antimicrobial Effects of Silver/Transition-metal Combinatorial Treatments by Garza Cervantes, Javier Alberto, Chávez Reyes, Arturo, Castillo, Elena C., García Rivas, Gerardo, Ortega Rivera, Oscar Antonio, Salinas, Eva, Ortiz Martínez, Margarita, Gómez Flores, Sara Leticia, Peña Martínez, Jorge Arturo, Pepi Molina, Alan, Treviño Gonzalez, Mario Tadeo, Zárate Kalfópulos, Xristo, Cantú Cárdenas, María Elena, Escárcega González, Carlos Enrique, Morones Ramírez, José Rubén

“…Nevertheless, one main drawback of transition metals is their toxicity in eukaryotic cells. Here, we show that the barriers to use them as therapeutic agents could be mitigated by combining them with silver. …”

Re-sensitizing Ampicillin and Kanamycin-Resistant E. coli and S. aureus Using Synergistic Metal Micronutrients-Antibiotic Combinations by Garza Cervantes, Javier Alberto, Meza Bustillos, Jesús F., Reséndiz Hernández, Haziel, Suárez Cantú, Iván A., Ortega Rivera, Oscar Antonio, Salinas, Eva, Escárcega González, Carlos Enrique, Morones Ramírez, José Rubén

“…Similarly, Cu2+, Zn2+, or Cd2+ re-sensitize kanamycin-resistant E. coli and S. aureus to kanamycin when administered in a combinatorial treatment with those transition metals. Here, we demonstrate that for both susceptible and resistant bacteria, transition-metal micronutrients, and antibiotics interact synergistically in combinatorial treatments and exhibit increased effects when compared to the treatment with the antibiotic alone. …”

Biomass and lipid induction strategies in microalgae for biofuel production and other applications by Alishah Aratboni, Hossein, Rafiei, Nahid, García Granados, Raúl, Alemzadeh, Abbas, Morones Ramírez, José Rubén

“…Within the last 10 years, many studies have reported different methods and strategies to induce lipid production to obtain higher lipid accumulation in the biomass of microalgae cells; however, there is not a comprehensive review in the literature that highlights, compares and discusses these strategies. Here, we review these strategies which include modulating light intensity in cultures, controlling and varying CO2 levels and temperature, inducing nutrient starvation in the culture, the implementation of stress by incorporating heavy metal or inducing a high salinity condition, and the use of metabolic and genetic engineering techniques coupled with nanotechnology.…”
