Key Finding
The authors tested whether zinc oxide nanoparticles prime protective immunity in Galleria mellonella challenged with Candida albicans. The work reports enhanced host defence responses and reduced fungal-associated pathology, supporting an immunomodulatory rather than directly fungicidal contribution.
Countstar Connection
Counted Galleria mellonella hemocytes immediately after collection.
