Characterization of Cellulose and Starch Degradation by Extracellular Enzymes in Frankia Strains

Recycling
Annually, a considerable amount of agricultural waste is produced leading to serious environmental pollution if not managed effectively. A wide range of bio-decomposers, including fungi, bacteria, and actinomycetes may break down the complex agro ...

Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis in experimental necrotizing enterocolitis: alterations in inflammation, innate immune response, and the microbiota. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundProbiotics decrease the risk of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). We sought to determine the impact of Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis (B. infantis) in the established rat model of NEC.MethodsRat pups delivered 1 d prior to term gestation

Survival of a potential bacterial biocontrol agent in the soil and its impact on microbial communities

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
In soil microcosms, the candidate Bacillus persisted ≥6 months and caused modest community shifts whose transience and magnitude were soil dependent. Abstract BACKGROUND Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a major crop pathogen commonly managed using fungicides.

The Neuroprotective Effect of a Waste Byproduct Obtained From Pomegranate (Punica granatum)

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
The Effect of a Waste Byproduct Obtained From Pomegranate on Neurodegeneration. ABSTRACT Pomegranate is an exceptional fruit that can have several beneficial effects on human health. The peel of pomegranate, a waste product, should be recovered as it still contains valuable constituents, including phenolic compounds, minerals and fibre. The recovery of

Temporal and Spatial Impact of Human Cadaver Decomposition on Soil Bacterial and Arthropod Community Structure and Function [PDF]

, 2018
As vertebrate carrion decomposes, there is a release of nutrient-rich fluids into theunderlying soil, which can impact associated biological community structure andfunction. How these changes alter soil biogeochemical cycles is relatively unknown and may

Structure and functional genes associated with carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur cycling processes in periphyton: A comparison between natural and artificial rivers

River, EarlyView.
Network analysis of functional genes among prokaryotes, and eukaryotes in natural and artificial rivers. Abstract Periphyton in aquatic ecosystems plays vital roles in the elemental cycle process and is vulnerable to anthropogenic interference. However, few studies have explored the elemental cycles of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and ...

Distinct Nasal Microbiome Profiles and Prediction Model for Allergic Rhinitis, Nonallergic Rhinitis, and Healthy Children

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
The alpha and beta diversity of the nasal microbiome differed among children with allergic rhinitis (AR), nonallergic rhinitis (NAR), and healthy controls (HCs). Compared to HC, AR had more Escherichia‐Shigella, Negativicoccus, and Campylobacter, while NAR had more Dolosigranulum and fewer Enterobacteriaceae.

Uneven distribution of cobamide biosynthesis and dependence in bacteria predicted by comparative genomics. [PDF]

, 2019
The vitamin B12 family of cofactors known as cobamides are essential for a variety of microbial metabolisms. We used comparative genomics of 11,000 bacterial species to analyze the extent and distribution of cobamide production and use across bacteria ...
