The rise of inorganic-biological hybrid organisms for solar-to-chemical production has spurred mechanistic investigations into the dynamics of the biotic-abiotic interface to drive the development of next-generation systems. The model system, Moorella thermoacetica-cadmium sulfide (CdS), combines an inorganic semiconductor nanoparticle light harvester with an acetogenic bacterium to drive the p...

We demonstrated several technological aptitudes and sensitivity of lactic acid bacteria (Leuconostoc) isolated from the raw milk cows. explained experiments in detail to get reader understand what kinds technology can be used for testing bacteria. Lactic are production dairy products increase their shelf life improve organoleptic nutritional properties. Leuconostocs is a heterofermentative bact...

depressive disorders are more common among persons with chronic diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease and anti-inflammatory effect of some antidepressants such as amitriptyline has been reported. acetic acid colitis was induced in both reserpinised (depressed) and non-reserpinised (normal) rats. reserpinised groups received reserpine (6 mg/kg, i.p.) one hour prior to colitis induction. th...

the acorn is an edible nut of oak trees (quercus spp.) that had been used for human nutrition for a long time. besides nutritious components, acorn contains considerable amounts of phenolic substances. at present study, two different varieties of iranian oak acorns, namely, q. branti var. persica (qb) and qcastaneifolia var. castaneifolia (qc) were used. the total polyphenol content measured in...

background & aim: clematis is an ornamental and medicinal plant that is primarily planted as an ornamental plant. clematis orientalis is native to asia and central europe, used as an antiseptic and refrigerant. the propagation of clematis is very important. in this study, the effects of plant growth regulators on rooting and growth of the plants in vitro culture were examined. experimental:...

introduction: otorrhea and granulation tissue in canal wall down mastoidectomy (cwd) is the common problem in cholesteatoma removal and leads to many discomfort for both the patient and the physician. the main objective in cwd is creating the dry cavity, so the topical antibiotic and acetic acid in variable saturations are used for this purpose. in this study we evaluate the effectiveness of to...

background: fenugreek (trigonella foenum - graecum l.) is an annual medicinal plant belongs to the legume family and has anti-diabetic, anti-fertility, anticancer, anti-microbial, anti-parasitic and hypocholesterolaemic effects. objective: evaluation of growth and trigonelline /mucilage content in fenugreek under application of plant growth regulators (pgr). methods: the experiment was conducte...

The most common way to produce red wine is through the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains for alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid bacteria for malolactic fermentation. This traditional winemaking methodology produces microbiologically stable red wines. However, under specific conditions off-flavours can occur, wine quality can suffer and human health problems are possible, especially af...

Bacteria were isolated from necrotic apple and pear tree tissue and from dead wood in Germany and Austria as well as from pear tree exudate in China. They were selected for growth at 37 °C, screened for levan production and then characterized as Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic rods. Nucleotide sequences from 16S rRNA genes, the housekeeping genes dnaJ, gyrB, recA and rpoB alignments, BLA...
