Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). Instituto de Biologia (IB) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Graduated in Biology from the Methodist University of Piracicaba (2006), Master in Microbiology (Biology Dental) from the Faculty of Dentistry of Piracicaba - State University of Campinas (2009) and PhD in Microbiology (Genetics and Molecular Biology) from the State University of Campinas (2013). The post-doctorate was from the State University of Campinas in the area of Microbiology, with an emphasis on Medical Microbiology, acting mainly on the following themes: antimicrobials, natural products, Staphylococcus aureus, violacein, nanoparticles and resistance to antibiotics. Since 2016, she has been a Researcher at the Boldrini Research Center working with cloning, quality control, viral vectors and animal experimentation facitlity. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Preliminar results of our group indicated inhibition activity of violacein to Staphylococcus aureus including methicillin-resistant strains (MRSA). Continuing these analyses, the aim of this project is to evaluate the biological activity of violacein to S. aureus. For this, the antimicrobial activity will be evaluated on S. aureus strains with intermediate resistance to vancomycin (VISA s…
This project aims to study the biological activity of violacein on different strains of Staphylococcus aureus, an important pathogen for humans and other animals through techniques of proteomics, functional genomics, analysis of antimicrobial activity (in vitro and in vivo). Previous results have shown that this compound showed bactericidal effect on strains of S. aureus, including strain…
Streptococcus mutans is the main etiologic agent of the dental caries. The synthesis of lactic acid, the acid tolerance and the formation of dental biofilm by glucosiltransferases enzymes and glucan binding proteins, are virulence factors of this microorganism involved in the process of development of the dental caries. The search for new antimicrobial natural agents capable to inhibit su…
