The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microbiology, Amastigote, Biochemistry, Leishmaniasis and Essential oil. Benedito Prado Dias Filho interconnects Vibrionaceae and Staphylococcus aureus in the investigation of issues within Microbiology. His Amastigote study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sesquiterpene lactone, Sesquiterpene and Lactone.

His Leishmaniasis study combines topics in areas such as Axenic, Kinetoplastida, Computational biology, Pharmacology and Drug discovery. His Essential oil study which covers Ocimum gratissimum that intersects with Eugenol. His Traditional medicine research incorporates elements of Antibacterial activity and Lippia alba.

His most cited work include:

  • Screening of some plants used in the Brazilian folk medicine for the treatment of infectious diseases (618 citations)
  • Recent advances in leishmaniasis treatment. (204 citations)
  • Antibacterial activity of Ocimum gratissimum L. essential oil. (198 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Traditional medicine, Amastigote, Biochemistry and Trypanosoma cruzi. His research integrates issues of Essential oil, Cytotoxicity and Staphylococcus aureus in his study of Microbiology. While the research belongs to areas of Staphylococcus aureus, he spends his time largely on the problem of Antibacterial activity, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Chromatography and Bacillus subtilis.

Benedito Prado Dias Filho has included themes like Antimicrobial, Genotoxicity and Pharmacognosy in his Traditional medicine study. The various areas that Benedito Prado Dias Filho examines in his Amastigote study include Axenic, Leishmaniasis, Intracellular and Kinetoplastida. His research in Trypanosoma cruzi intersects with topics in Immunology, Chagas disease, Antiprotozoal and Pharmacology.

  • Traditional medicine (27.85%)
  • Amastigote (27.85%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Traditional medicine (27.85%)
  • Herpes simplex virus (3.80%)
  • Piper (5.06%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Benedito Prado Dias Filho focuses on Traditional medicine, Herpes simplex virus, Piper, Virology and Microbiology. His study focuses on the intersection of Traditional medicine and fields such as Genotoxicity with connections in the field of Irritation. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including In vitro and Propolis.

In the subject of general Microbiology, his work in Protozoa is often linked to DNA fragmentation, thereby combining diverse domains of study. Many of his studies on Biochemistry apply to Amastigote as well. His Amastigote research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Leishmaniasis and Pharmacology.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Bioactivity of essential oils in the control of Alternaria alternata in dragon fruit (Hylocereus undatus Haw.). (23 citations)
  • Anti-biofilm activity against Staphylococcus aureus MRSA and MSSA of neolignans and extract of Piper regnellii (19 citations)
  • Formulation and Evaluation of a Mucoadhesive Thermoresponsive System Containing Brazilian Green Propolis for the Treatment of Lesions Caused by Herpes Simplex Type I (17 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry
  • Botany

Benedito Prado Dias Filho mostly deals with Traditional medicine, Genotoxicity, Microbiology, Herpes simplex virus and Virology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Penicillin, Riparia and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in addition to Traditional medicine. His Genotoxicity research includes elements of Irritation and Proanthocyanidin.

His Microbiology research incorporates themes from Oxidative stress, Leishmaniasis and Leishmania mexicana. His Herpes simplex virus research includes themes of Bioavailability, Pharmacology and Propolis. His study in Virology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both In vitro, Prodelphinidin and Micronucleus test.
