The working group set up by the SEAP-IAP addresses in this Part II some general considerations and five particular considerations to be taken into account when a biological sample of human origin, coming from our archives, acquires a different destination from the usual one, in this case for research. From this moment on, we must follow mandatory legal and ethical rules, and the different recitals provide us with guidelines to ensure good practice, both for biological material and its associated data. The traditional task of custody given to the Pathological Anatomy is approached, as always, from the point of view of responsibility and, in this article, adjusted to its time.

Article Synopsis
  • Proper storage of pathology specimens is crucial for patient safety, but there are no established guidelines detailing the minimum storage duration for samples.

is an emerging yeast of worldwide interest due to its antifungal resistance and mortality rates. The aim of this study was to analyse the in vitro and in vivo antifungal activity of a nanoemulsion loaded with amphotericin B (NEA) against planktonic cells and biofilm of clinical isolates belonging to four different clades. In vivo assays were performed using the model to analyse antifungal activity and histopathological changes.
