Nanostructures such as liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanoemulsions, polymeric nanoparticles, metallic nanoparticles, carbon dots and carbon nanotubes appeared as important nanocarriers acting on Aedes aegypti control. Some of them have effective antiviral properties that open a new strategy for mosquito control.

Diphenyl amines were synthesized using an efficient procedure and evaluated for their in vitro anti-bacterial activity against eight standard Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains. Most of the synthesized compounds displayed good anti-Staphylococcal activity. Potential compounds were further evaluated against resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Compounds 2-(2,4-dinitrophenylamino)-phenol and 2-(2-nitrophenylamino)-phenol demonstrated promising results in initial studies.

Derivatives of betulinic acid, steviol and isosteviol were prepared and tested in vitro against Plasmodium falciparum and Trypanosoma cruzi. Dinitrophenylhydrazone derivatives of betulinic acid were the most active antiplasmodium compounds whereas the oxime of isosteviol was the most active against T. cruzi.

Ultraviolet (UV) characteristic profiles and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic fingerprints of green bean extracts of Coffea arabica L., cultivated in two planting patterns and at two different densities, were analyzed with principal component and hierarchical cluster analyses. The results show that chlorogenic acids and caffeine differentiated the UV and FTIR fingerprints of these treatments.
