Purpose: To evaluate the morphometric, macroscopic and microscopic aspects of experimentally induced partial-thickness burns in rats treated with different silver-based dressings. Methods: Wistar rats were used, divided into six treatments: saline (NaCl 0.9%); silver sulfadiazine 1%; Silvercel; Mepilex Ag; Aquacel Ag and Acticoat. The animals were monitored daily and euthanized at 7, 14 and 30 days after injury induction (DAI). Results: At 7 DAI, necrosis/crust was greater in control, silver sulfadiazine and Mepilex Ag treatments, granulation tissue was induced by Aquacel Ag, polymorphonuclear infiltrate (PMN) infiltration was intensified by Mepilex Ag; mononuclear infiltrate (MN) infiltration and angiogenesis were increased by Silvercel. At 14 DAI, hemorrhage was decreased by Silvercel and Mepilex Ag, PMN infiltration increased by Acticoat. At 30 DAI, angiogenesis was greater in the Acticoat treatment and fibroblasts were increased by Acticoat and Mepilex Ag. Collagen was induced at 14 DAI by silver sulfadiazine and Aquacel Ag and, at 30 DAI, by silver sulfadiazine and Silvercel treatments. Conclusions: Silvercel and Acticoat presented better results than the other products. However, all the dressings were better than the control at some point during the process, and may contribute to the healing of partial thickness burns. Silvercel and Aquacel Ag treatments induced better cosmetic outcomes regarding wound closure and scarring.

Purpose: Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) has revolutionized wound care, but its high cost reduces the procedure's availability. To solve the problem, streamlined vacuum dressings systems have been proposed, but the utility of these devices has been poorly studied. The objective of this study was to evaluate a simplified vacuum dressing system model (SVDM). Methods: Randomized clinical trial in which wounds were treated with SVDM compared to a complex occlusive dressing (silver hydrofiber, SHF). The analyzed outcomes were cleaning, presence of granulation tissue, clinical appearance, and indication for surgical closure of wounds. Results: Fifty injuries were treated (25 in each group), most located on lower limbs. SVDM proved to be more effective than SHF in the evaluated outcomes. Wound recalcitrance reduced the effectiveness of the equipment used. Despite its efficacy, complications occurred, the most frequent related to dressing changes: minor bleeding, foam adherence to a wound bed, and pain. Only for bleeding no favorable risk-benefit ratio was found. There were no severe complications, worsening conditions of injuries, or deaths. Conclusions: SVDM proved to be an effective and acceptably safe device for managing studied wounds.

Resumo

Salmonella spp. is an important causal agent of salmonellosis in humans. Controlling Salmonella spp. in eggs is important as the bacterium passes through the shell to an embryo and remains in the terrain. Disinfection is usually performed by using several sanitizers. However, novel, more efficient ways of controlling this agent have been studied with advances in nanotechnology, including nanoparticles. Preliminary studies of nanoparticles have shown they are successful in controlling such microorganisms. Standardizing the ideal concentration of this nanocomposite is fundamental for optimum efficiency in the control of Salmonella spp. In this study, eggs from commercial laying chickens were purchased from local trade and treated in laboratory with silver and zinc nanoparticles in different concentrations. Biofilm was formed 24 hours after that; then, the eggs were washed for the removal of free bacteria. Conventional microbiology was performed to isolate Salmonella spp., and PCR was performed to identify colonies. The effectiveness of using nanocomposite of silver oxide with silver-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Ag-AgO) was evaluated in different concentrations to prevent the formation of eggshell biofilms.


As Salmonellas spp. são importantes agentes causadores de salmonelose em humanos. O controle da Salmonella spp. é importante, pois a bactéria ultrapassa a barreira da casca atingindo o embrião e infecta lotes de aves que podem levar a infecção ao ser humano. A desinfecção costuma ser feita por vários sanitizantes; porém, com os avanços da nanotecnologia, formas novas e mais eficientes de controle desse agente estão sendo estudadas, como as nanopartículas. Estudos preliminares dessas nanopartículas têm mostrado o sucesso de seu uso no controle de microrganismos. A padronização da concentração ideal de uso desse nanocomposto é fundamental para a máxima eficiência no controle de Salmonella spp. Ovos vermelhos oriundos de postura comercial foram comprados no comércio local e tratados em laboratório com as nanopartículas em diferentes concentrações; após 24 horas, formaram o biolfilme. Os ovos foram lavados para a retirada das bactérias livres. Realizaram-se exame microbiológico convencional, para isolamento de Salmonella spp., e PCR, para identificação das colônias. O objetivo deste artigo foi avaliar a eficácia da utilização de nanocompostos de óxido de prata com óxido de zinco dopado com óxido de prata (ZnO: Ag-Ago) em diferentes concentrações na prevenção da formação de biofilmes na casca dos ovos.
