PHYSICO CHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF A T5-LIKE SALMONELLA PHAGE PHI-SP-3

Characterization of a large novel phage-like plasmid in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium.

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is a food-borne pathogen and a leading cause of gastroenteritis in humans. Recently, we sequenced a phage-type DT108 strain (L945) and found reads with high similarity to both Salmonella typhi strain CT18 plasmid pHCM2 and bacteriophage SSU5. In this study, we completely sequenced the novel phage-like plasmid which was designated as pSTM_Φ. The presence o...

Humic acid from Shilajit – a physico-chemical and spectroscopic characterization

Shilajit is a blackish–brown exudation, consisting of organic substances, metal ions and minerals, from different formations, commonly found in the Himalayan region (1000–3000 m) from Nepal to Kashmir. Shilajit can also b e collected t hroughout the mountain region s i n Afghani stan, Bhutan, China, Bajkal, throughout Ural, Cauc asus and Altai mountains also, at altitudes be tween 1 000 to 5000...

Physico-chemical characterization of nano-emulsions in cosmetic matrix enriched on omega-3

BACKGROUND Nano-emulsions, as non-equilibrium systems, present characteristics and properties which depend not only on composition but also on their method of preparation. To obtain better penetration, nanocosmeceuticals use nano-sized systems for the delivery of active ingredients to targeted cells. In this work, nano-emulsions composed of miglyol, rapeseed oil and salmon oil were developed as...

Partial physico-chemical and immunological characterization of bovine semen isoantigens.

Antisera prepared by immunizing 10 virgin heifers with semen pooled from eight bulls of four dairy breeds reacted in immunodiffusion tests to indicate that bovine semen contains at least four isoantigens. No visible precipitin reaction was observed when such sera were diffused against vesicular gland fluid, but all four antigens were present in the testicular fluid, cauda epididymal plasma, cau...
