A number of isoechinulin-type metabolites, characterized by a dehydrotryptophan unit, all containing isoprenic and reversed isoprenic chains in the 2and 5-positions of the indole nucleus, respectively, have been isolated from molds of the genus Aspergillus.1) Their common biosynthetic origin from cyclo-L-alanyl-Ltryptophanyl has been established.2) During a search for bioactive constituents fro...

Aspergillus sp. are ubiquitous mould infections and in most patients, the source is presumed to be air-borne infections during surgical procedures. Prevention of these infections requires special attention of ventilation systems in operating rooms. Post-operative aspergillosis occurs mainly in immunocompromised patients as well as those who receive corticosteroids temporarily. We report a case ...

High-dose testosterone enanthate (TE) may prevent hypogonadism-induced osteopenia. For this study, 3-mo-old male and female Fisher SAS rats underwent sham surgery, gonadectomy (GX), or GX plus 28 days TE administration (7.0 mg/wk). GX reduced serum sex hormones (i.e., testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, and estradiol) (P < 0.05) in both sexes and bone concentrations of testosterone (males only),...

Foot odour is caused by combination of sweat and bacteria. Smelly feet can lead to lack confidence discomfort. In this study, conducted on 21 probands isolate the microbes with following criteria: male, aged 18-25 years, wore shoes for 8 hours without taking them off, moist, smelly feet. Isolating from using a cotton swab. The result study found 7 isolates. Several bacteria isolates, namely: St...

Here, we provide data related to the research article entitled "Quantitative proteomics study of Aspergillus fumigatus secretome revealed deamidation of secretory enzymes" by Adav et al. (J. Proteomics (2015) [1]). Aspergillus sp. plays an important role in lignocellulosic biomass recycling. To explore biomass hydrolyzing enzymes of A. fumigatus, we profiled secretome under different carbon sou...

Fungal endocarditis represents both a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to the treating team. The critical care physician will see a rising incidence as older and more immuno-compromised patients are being supported in their intensive care units. Aspergillus sp. endocarditis represents less than 25% of all cases of fungal endocarditis and is associated with a mortality of around 80%. Early d...

This study aimed to improve some surface properties such as color, gloss, and roughness changes of Oriental beech (Fagus orientalis L.) wood impregnated with water repellent chemicals glycerol (GR) glyoxal (GX) after weathering. specimens were a 4 % aqueous solution GR, GX, mixture GR GX (1:1; weight : weight) (GR+GX) then exposed weathering in Muğla Province Turkey. Results showed that [delta]...

Taxol® (generic name – Paclitaxel), the most promising chemotherapeuticagent was isolated from bark of different Taxus sp. As species arethreatened with extinction (endangered in Himalaya), thus it is imperativeto develop alternate and sustainable method for commercialization scaleup production paclitaxel. In this respect, physical chemical parametersare effective important key points active co...
