Abstract

Objectives: To determine whether β-HFC, in addition to its immunomodulatory effect as a therapeutic alternative in the combat of the mycetoma has an effect on the biochemical activity of N. brasiliensis. Methodology: determination of bacterial growth using N. brasilensis in the presence of β-HFC and biochemical analysis of its metabolism. Contribution: The immunomodulatory function of β-HFC in the treatment of chronic infections has recently been studied but it is not known whether it also has any antimicrobial effect, so in this paper the direct effect of β-HFC in N. brasiliensis will be elucidated in part.
