The marine environment has a diversity of organisms with varied metabolic and physiological properties and presents compounds with potential for the development of bioproducts. Among these organisms, algae have different classes of compounds with biological properties of industrial interest as well as being highly nutritious. In turn, nanotechnology has developed and is being used to deve…
The eutrophication of aquatic environments and consequently the increase of algal blooms and cyanobacteria are now considered as a serious environmental problem and to human health worldwide. In this contest the chemical compounds of plant origin have potential to be used as an ecologically viable alternative in pest control turning into a great ally in agriculture and more currently in c…
Algae, in addition to having a high nutritional level, present different classes of compounds with biological properties and represent a resource of high added value with numerous application possibilities, from a source of biopolymers to the production of biostimulants that can be applied in agriculture. With regard to nanotechnology, this science has been developing and has been used fo…
The synthesis of metal nanoparticles (NPMs) by biological systems is known as green synthesis or biosynthesis and can be carried out using prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms or parts of them. In this synthesis strategy, instead of using toxic agents to reduce the metal ion, NPMs are obtained by biological components capable of reducing the metal. In this context, this project aims to de…
This master's degree plan aims to investigate the anti-aging potential of bioactive compounds extracted from seaweed biomass, combining in vitro and in silico approaches. The project seeks to validate the use of seaweed as a renewable and sustainable source of active ingredients for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries, focusing on the prevention of aging. The researc…

In recent years numerous scientific studies have demonstrated and proven the application and use of computational molecular docking in the investigation of natural products and bioactives, candidates to be employed in treatments and prevention of different diseases, especially chronic and/or degenerative diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, cancers, diabetes, sclerosis, Alzheimer's,…
The synthesis of metallic nanoparticles (NPMs) by biological systems is known as green synthesis or biosynthesis and can be performed using prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms or parts thereof. In this synthesis strategy, instead of using toxic agents to reduce the metal ion, obtaining NPMs is mediated by biological components capable of reducing the metal. In this context, the present p…
Herbal medicine based on Avena sativa L. (Neuravena®) has numerous pharmacological and medicinal actions, already proven, mainly with antioxidant action. The investigation of the antioxidant and antiglicant activity, and the development of a method of green synthesis to obtain silver nanoparticles containing the phytotherapic may contribute with important information for new applications …

Anthocyanins are naturally occurring water-soluble plant pigments. They have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and immunomodulatory properties. Although some advanced techniques are available for extracting anthocyanins, some limitations make it difficult to obtain and isolate them. In view of this, a viable extraction method that is more efficient and involves less organic solve…
The present scholarship aims to evaluate the biological activity through in vitro tests, using cancer cell lines, active compounds present in different structures of the seed (cotyledon, embryo and integument) and seedling (radicle and caulci) of Glycine max (soybean). To do so, we will perform the following lines of study: Cell proliferation assay, Apoptosis induction, Intracellular ROS …
Weeds and wild plants are a source not yet exploited to obtain future phytosanitary products. These have different characteristics that make them a very attractive starting material as they are: many are edible, have several properties (so they are traditionally used in folk medicine), survive and prevail fret others, are abundant and have no economic value. Research its allelopathic prop…
