Comparison of the exoproducts of gram-negative bacteria by SDS-page

1985

The protein exoproducts released during exponential growth of Gram-negative bacteria were analysed and compared by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-Page). The following bacterial strains were tested: Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter cloacae, Serratia liquefaciens, Serratia rubidaea, Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, Salmonella minnesota, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas fluorescens. It is demonstrated by SDS-Page that members of one species show identical protein pattern, whereas different species show besides comparable protein bands a species characteristic pattern. All members of Enterobacteriaceae were sho…

«Jusqu’à nos désirs, jusqu’aux formes de notre plaisir»: feminism’s development in Les Temps modernes

2017

Les Temps Modernes has been a basic ground for the growth both of the second-wave feminism and of the third-wave one, and has skaken old roles also by questioning traditional longings, as some writings we can (re)read here show: several remarks by Simone de Beauvoir, an article by Colette Audry, an issue of the column Le Sexisme ordinaire.

A way to follow the viability of encapsulated Bifidobacterium bifidum subjected to a freeze-drying process in order to target the colon: Interest of …

2012

The aim of this work was to apply flow cytometry in order to assess and compare the viability of freeze-dried entrapped bacteria with an usual technique by quantification by plate count techniques. It also aimed at studying the effect of various cryoprotectants on the viability of an entrapped Bifidobacterium bifidum subjected to freeze-drying to check their ability to be delivered all along the gastro-intestinal tract. The alginate-pectinate beads were chosen as the encapsulation matrix added with different protectants. The beads were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and the viability was checked by both methods. The best combination to improve viability of entrapped bacteria …

[Perception of dyspnea and treatment adherence in asthmatic patients].

2008

OBJECTIVE: The majority of studies show that treatment adherence in chronic diseases such as asthma does not exceed 50%. Although the reasons may vary, it is clear that lack of treatment adherence is a determining factor in poor disease control. An association has also been observed between lack of perception of dyspnea and difficult-to-control asthma and with the occurrence of fatal or near-fatal asthma attacks. In this study we therefore attempted to demonstrate that one of the reasons that asthmatic patients do not adhere to treatment is a failure to perceive dyspnea associated with bronchial obstruction. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We analyzed 2 groups of patients with moderate persistent ast…

Schulung des Inhalationsmanövers bei Kindern mit Asthma bronchiale mittels optischem Feedback

2007

BACKGROUND: For inhalation as a mainstay of asthma therapy, the correct inhalation technique is of utmost importance. This comprises not only the correct handling of the device but also specific device-dependent requirements concerning the inhalation manoeuvre itself. METHODS: We examined whether totally different inhalation manoeuvres can be educated in parallel in asthmatic children. As target manoeuvres we defined: 1) an inhalation as fast as possible (peak inspiratory flow ≥ 60 l/min) with high acceleration in the starting phase as it is normally required for dry powder inhalers. 2) A constant inhalation at a flow between 40 and 90 l/min with a long duration as it is regarded to be opti…

Calorimetric properties of water and triacylglycerols in fern spores relating to storage at cryogenic temperatures.

2007

Abstract Storing spores is a promising method to conserve genetic diversity of ferns ex situ . Inappropriate water contents or damaging effects of triacylglycerol (TAG) crystallization may cause initial damage and deterioration with time in spores placed at −15 °C or liquid nitrogen temperatures. We used differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to monitor enthalpy and temperature of water and TAG phase transitions within spores of five fern species: Pteris vittata , Thelypteris palustris , Dryopteris filix-mas , Polystichum aculeatum , Polystichum setiferum . The analyses suggested that these fern spores contained between 26% and 39% TAG, and were comprised of mostly oleic ( P. vittata ) or …

Responses of Young Peach Trees to Root Confinement

1994

Rooted cuttings of Nemaguard peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch.] were grown in 0.18-, 0.36-, 0.90-, and 2.40-liter containers for 16 weeks to study the influence of root confinement on growth, gas exchange, water uptake, and leaf carbohydrate and nutrient content. An automatic nutrient-solution dispensing system was used to ensure uniform fertility among treatments and to prevent drought stress. Leaf area and stem length were reduced by root confinement 6 to 7 weeks after transplanting, and differences among treatments increased throughout the experiment. Final tree dry weights were reduced by 51% over a 13-fold reduction in rooting volume, but dry weight partitioning was largely unaffected…

Economic values for production and functional traits in Valle del Belice dairy sheep using profit functions

2011

Abstract A deterministic static model was used to estimate the economic values (EV) of production (MY, milk yield; BW, birth weight; and ADG, average daily gain) and functional traits (ASR, adult survival rate; LSR, lamb survival rate; FE, fertility; PR, prolificacy; and LW ewe , mature weight of ewe) in Valle del Belice dairy sheep. In this study, values for the biological parameters and the production traits used in the model were taken from real data, by surveying 15 Valle del Belice farmers and reflected the production circumstances of pasture based dairy production systems. In this system feed cost accounted for 95% of total variable costs, whereas fixed costs were low and reflected tr…
