Improved Salmonella recovery from moderate to highly polluted waters.
1982
A new enrichment procedure for the recovery of salmonellas from aquatic environments is proposed. It has been tested in a eutrophic lake showing moderate to high faecal contamination levels (the Albufera lake near Valencia, Spain), and in effluents coming into a wastewater treatment plant. The new method consists of the addition of sodium novobiocin to a modification of Rappaport's medium (R10/43°C). The new medium (NR10/43°C) allows a better recovery of salmonellas from water than selenite broth.
Assessment of the microbiological quality and wash treatments of lettuce served in University restaurants
2000
Abstract One hundred and forty-four samples of lettuce from 16 University restaurants were analyzed. The mesophilic aerobic counts of all samples ranged from 3.01 to 7.81 log 10 CFU g −1 . Results of total coliforms ranged from 3.38 log 10 most probable number (MPN) g −1 . Of the lettuce samples, 25.7% harbored Escherichia coli , 22.9% Staphylococcus aureus and 84% group D streptococci. Similarly, 10.4% of the samples harbored Aeromonas hydrophila , 2.8% Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and coliforms such as 14.6% Citrobacter freundii , 8.3% Klebsiella pneumoniae , 4.2% Enterobacter cloacae and 1.4% Providencia spp. Salmonella , Shigella and E. coli O157:H7 were not detected. When sodium hypochlori…
Scaffold protein harmonin (USH1C) provides molecular links between Usher syndrome type 1 and type 2.
2005
Contains fulltext : 48386.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Usher syndrome (USH) is the most frequent cause of combined deaf-blindness in man. USH is clinically and genetically heterogeneous with at least 11 chromosomal loci assigned to the three USH types (USH1A-G, USH2A-C, USH3A). Although the different USH types exhibit almost the same phenotype in human, the identified USH genes encode for proteins which belong to very different protein classes and families. We and others recently reported that the scaffold protein harmonin (USH1C-gene product) integrates all identified USH1 molecules in a USH1-protein network. Here, we investigated the relationship between the USH2 molecules a…
Proprotein convertase 5/6 is critical for embryo implantation in women: regulating receptivity by cleaving ebp50, modulating ezrin binding, and membr…
2011
Establishment of endometrial receptivity is vital for successful embryo implantation; its failure causes infertility. Epithelial receptivity acquisition involves dramatic structural changes in the plasma membrane and cytoskeleton. Proprotein convertase 5/6 (PC6), a serine protease of the proprotein convertase (PC) family, is up-regulated in the human endometrium specifically at the time of epithelial receptivity and stromal cell decidualization. PC6 is the only PC member tightly regulated in this manner. The current study addressed the importance and mechanisms of PC6 action in regulating receptivity in women. PC6 was dysregulated in the endometrial epithelium during the window of implantat…

Transport of Mobile Particles in an Immobile Environment: Computer Simulations of Sodium Silicates
2007
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of various sodium silicate melts, (Na2O)x(SiO2) with x=2, 3, 20, are presented. In these systems, the mobility of sodium ions is much higher, often by orders of magnitude, than that of the silicon and oxygen atoms forming a tetrahedral network structure. We show that the high mobility of sodium is intimately related to the chemical ordering in sodium silicates. A network of percolating sodium-rich channels is formed in the static structure that serve as diffusion channels for the sodium ions. This channel network is revealed in static structure factors by a prepeak at the wavenumber q=0.95 A-1. Inelastic neutron scattering experiments of sodium silicate m…
Bis (μ-tetrazolato-NN′) bridged dinuclear nickel(II) Schiff base complexes: Tandem synthesis, structure and self assembly
2015
Abstract Two new bis(μ-tetrazolato-NN′) bridged dinuclear nickel(II) Schiff base complexes [Ni2L12(PTZ)2]·2(CH3)2SO·2.69H2O (1) and 2[Ni2L22(PTZ)2]·3H2O (2) (HL1 and HL2 are Schiff bases, HL1 = 2-((2-(dimethylamino)ethylimino)methyl)phenol, HL2 = 2-((2-(methylamino)ethylimino)methyl)-6-methoxyphenol and HPTZ is 5-pyrazinyltetrazole) have been synthesized via [3+2] cyclo-addition of 2-cyanopyrazine and sodium azide in presence of nickel(II) acetate tetrahydrate and the respective Schiff bases. The structures of the complexes are confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Both complexes show fluorescence. The change in the denticity of the Schiff base blocking ligand is shown to …
SGLT2i and GLP-1RA in Cardiometabolic and Renal Diseases: From Glycemic Control to Adipose Tissue Inflammation and Senescence
2021
Background. Over the last few years, the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) has increased substantially in medical practice due to their documented benefits in cardiorenal and metabolic health. In this sense, and in addition to being used for glycemic control in diabetic patients, these drugs also have other favorable effects such as weight loss and lowering blood pressure, and more recently, they have been shown to have cardio and renoprotective effects with anti-inflammatory properties. Concerning the latter, the individual or associated use of these antihyperglycemic agents has been linked with a decrease in p…

2006
Abstract In the present paper, some results of an investigation (at t = 25 °C by potentiometry, ISE-H+ glass electrode) on the sequestering ability of five different polyaminopolycarboxylic ligands [Nitrilotriacetate (NTA), ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetate (EDTA), ethylene glycol-bis(2-aminoethylether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetate (EGTA), diethylenetriamine-N,N,N′,N″,N″-pentaacetate (DTPA), triethylenetetraamine-N,N,N′,N″,N′′′,N′′′-hexaacetate (TTHA)] towards dioxouranium(VI) cation in sodium chloride aqueous solutions, at I = 0.7 mol L−1 are reported. Calculations performed on potentiometric data gave evidence of the formation of the following species (log β in parenthesis): UO2(NTA)H0 (12…
