Effect of DODAB Nano-Sized Cationic Bilayer Fragments against <i>Leishmania amazonensis</i>
The dioctadecyldimethylammonium bromide (DODAB) is a double-chained cationic lipid with potent bactericide and fungistatic activities; however, its toxicity on protozoan parasites is still unknown. Here, we show the antileishmanial activity of DODAB nano-sized cationic bilayer fragments on stationar...
