anti-microbial effects of the lactic acid bacteria have been studied and proved in various investigations. this investigation aimed to study the anti-yeast effect of two isolated lactic acid bacteria species from “chal” (a product from yogurt) as biological preservatives in doogh. to do so, anti-yeast activity of l. brevis and e. faecium against saccharomyces cerevisiae, kluyveromyces. marxianu...

Dental pathologies can be caused by plaque-forming bacteria and yeast, which reside in the oral cavity. The bacteria growing in dental plaque, a naturally occurring biofilm, display increased resistance to antimicrobial agents. The objective was the evaluation of a preclinical assay of medicinal plants of the semiarid region from the northeast against oral pathogenic microorganism, aiming at bi...

The fungus C. albicans uses adhesins to interact with human epithelial surfaces in the processes of colonization and pathogenesis. The C. albicans ALS (agglutinin-like sequence) gene family encodes eight large cell-surface glycoproteins (Als1-Als7 and Als9) that have adhesive function. This study utilized C. albicans Δals mutant strains to investigate the role of the Als family in oral epitheli...

cholera toxin b subunit (ctb) has been extensively studied as an immunogen, adjuvant, and inducer of oral tolerance in many investigations. production of ctb has been carried out in the bacterial, plant, insect and yeast expression systems. in this study the expression of the ctb containing a 6xhis-tagged was performed by escherichia coli (e.coli) m15. the yield of purified pentameric recombina...

the aim of this study was to determine the effect of yeast culture (saccharomyces cerevisiae sc 47) addition in the diet of dairy cows on their rumen fermentation and milk production. animals received a diet tmr based on good maize silage with a higher dry matter content (14 kg), 14 kg of lucerne-grass haylage, 5 kg of crushed ears of maize, 5 kg of beet pulp silage, 3 kg of crimped wheat, 2 kg...

steady state and dynamic fermentations of baker's yeast in molasses based media were analyzed in a laboratory scale bioreactor. sugar and biomass balances together with the monod biokinetics were used to develop the process model. parameters of the model were obtained using collected experimental data. model predicted open loop responses to step changes in feed concentration as well as dilution...

the objective of this study was to investigate fungal flora of the hair coat of domestic golden hamsterswith and without skin lesions. sixty hamsters were examined in the small animal teaching hospitalof the faculty of veterinary medicine, ferdowsi university of mashhad, and mashhad, iran. asteriletoothbrush was used for sample collection, from the entire body of the hamsters, all skin lesions ...
