Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). Instituto de Biologia (IB) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Bachelor's at Medicina from Universidade Estadual de Campinas (State University of Campinas) (UNICAMP) (1985), master's at Biochemistry from Universidade Estadual de Campinas (1988) and doctorate at Physiology from Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (1993). Professor and researcher at Universidade Estadual de Campinas. Interest subjects: Biochemistry, focusing on virus aggregates and protein-protein interactions, cooperativity, alosterism, enzyme kinetics, high hydrostatic pressure in biological systems, including bacteria and virus inactivation by pressure. Pos doc at Helmholtz Institute for Infectious Disease in Braunschweig, Germany (08/2009 a 08/2010). In this opportunity worked with spot synthesis, which is the peptide synthesis in paper, and with peptide synthesis in resin, in implantation phases in his laboratory. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Urea denatures proteins at different concentrations, depending on the experimental conditions and the protein. We investigated the pressure-induced denaturation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the presence of subdenaturing concentrations of urea based on a two-state equilibrium. Pressure-induced denaturation was enhanced at urea concentrations ([U]) of 3.5 M to 8.0 M, with the free energ…
The project aims the developing and obtaining of inactivated viral preparations, with vaccinal potential for parvovirus, virus of interest for Brazilian swine production. For the viral inactivation it will be used high hydrostatic pressure in combination with other agents. Initially the efficiency of inactivation will be find in studies in vitro, and after in vivo, by determination of its…
In the environment and hospital supplies, it is frequent the use of disinfectant agents, which are important for controlling infections from microorganisms. Nevertheless, these agents do not warranty the total elimination of microorganisms often found in nosocomial infection cases. Invasive procedures as plastic, cardiac and ophthalmologic surgery and esthetic surgery as mesotherapy and l…
