Pantothenate and coenzyme A in bacterial growth.
Toennies, G. (Temple University School of Medicine, Philadelphia, Pa.), D. N. Das, and F. Feng. Pantothenate and coenzyme A in bacterial growth. J. Bacteriol. 92:707-713. 1966.-The effect of environmental pantothenate levels on the growth of Streptococcus faecalis 9790 was studied in terms of growth rate, depletion phenomena, cellular coenzyme A (CoA) content, and differential rates of wall and...
متن کاملCoenzyme Q10, a cutaneous antioxidant and energizer.
The processes of aging and photoaging are associated with an increase in cellular oxidation. This may be in part due to a decline in the levels of the endogenous cellular antioxidant coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone, CoQ10). Therefore, we have investigated whether topical application of CoQ10 has the beneficial effect of preventing photoaging. We were able to demonstrate that CoQ10 penetrated into the ...
متن کاملBucillamine, a thiol antioxidant, prevents transplantation-associated reperfusion injury.
Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a serious potential threat to outcomes in organ transplantation and other clinical arenas in which there is temporary interruption of blood flow. I/R is a frequent cause of primary failure in organ transplantation. We hypothesized that the antioxidant bucillamine, a potent sulfhydryl donor, would protect against I/R injury in high-risk organ transplants. Bec...

reinsurance is widely recognized as an important instrument in the capital management of an insurance company as well as its risk management tool. this thesis is intended to determine premium rates for different types of reinsurance policies. also, given the fact that the reinsurance coverage of every company depends upon its reserves, so different types of reserves and the method of their calc...
Defence against bacterial drug resistance.
How does resistance arise in bacteria ? One process is simply selection; treatment with an antibiotic eliminates sensitive strains and enables an originally very small minority of resistant ones to survive and spread. This is undoubtedly what happened among staphylococci in the early days of penicillin. When exposure to a drug-antibiotic or synthetic-is followed by resistance in a previously se...
