Chelatococcus daeguensis TAD1 is a themophilic bacterium isolated from a biotrickling filter used to treat NOx in Ruiming Power Plant, located in Guangzhou, China, which shows an excellent aerobic denitrification activity at high temperature. The complete genome sequence of this strain was reported in the present study. Genes related to the aerobic denitrification were identified through whole ...

By coupling of Fe2O3@SiO2 particles with metal organic Framework (MOF) the magnetic MOF structure was fabricated. Precipitation and hydrothermal methods were applied for synthesis of core and MOF. Silver nanoparticles were deposited on nickel based metal organic framework surface and magnetic Fe2O3@SiO2@MOF@Ag was obtained. Because of strong coupling between silver nanoparticles and metal organ...

background: cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in the world. the aim of this study was to determine the effect of aerobic exercise on serum inflammatory markers in untrained middle-aged women. methods: nineteen healthy female middle-aged were selected by convenience sampling method and were randomly divided into two experimental (n=11) and control (n=8) groups. the exercis...

Nitric oxide (NO.) is a naturally occurring toxin that some organisms adaptively resist. In aerobic or anaerobic Escherichia coli, low levels of NO. exposure inactivated the NO.-sensitive citric acid cycle enzyme aconitase, and inactivation was more effective when the adaptive synthesis of NO.-defensive proteins was blocked with chloramphenicol. Protection of aconitase in aerobically grown E. c...

BACKGROUND Health-related and disease-specific quality of life (HRQoL) has been increasingly valued as relevant clinical parameter in cystic fibrosis (CF) clinical care and clinical trials. HRQoL measures should assess - among other domains - daily functioning from a patient's perspective. However, validation studies for the most frequently used HRQoL questionnaire in CF, the Cystic Fibrosis Qu...

BACKGROUND The activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is directly related to overweight and sedentary lifestyles, both of which are associated with hypertension. Aerobic exercise helps control blood pressure (BP) by acting on mechanisms of blood pressure regulation, such as plasma renin activity (PRA). OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of aerobic exercise on plasma renin act...

The effect of physical exercise on the treatment of depressive elderly adults has not been investigated thus far in terms of changes in cortical hemispheric activity. The objective of the present study was to identify changes in depressive symptoms, quality of life, and cortical asymmetry produced by aerobic activity. Elderly subjects with a diagnosis of major depressive disorder (DSM-IV) were ...

We have recently proposed the existence of a bacteriological pathway for ethanol oxidation, i.e. ethanol is oxidized by alcohol dehydrogenase of intestinal bacteria resulting in high intracolonic levels of reactive and toxic acetaldehyde. This study was aimed to examine aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity, acetaldehyde consumption and production of acetate by aerobic bacteria (n = 27), repre...
