Listeria monocytogenes Response to Anaerobic Environments
Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive facultative anaerobic bacterium that is responsible for the disease, listeriosis. It is particularly lethal in pregnant women, the fetus, the elderly and the immunocompromised.

Effects of Low pH on Lactate Dehydrogenase Kinetics of Diving and Nondiving Reptiles [PDF]
The properties of lactate dehydrogenase were examined in two snake species, Nerodia rhombifera and Elaphe obsoleta, and a turtle species, Pseudemys scripta.

Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...

Relative contributions of carbohydrates and proteins to metal mobilisation in an anaerobic soil slurry amended with rum vinasses [PDF]
The spreading of liquid organic wastes on soils enhances the risks of anaerobiosis and metal mobilisation. Under anaerobiosis, microbial activities drive most of soil geochemical evolutions through reductions, pH changes, net production of mineral and ...

ABSTRACT Undoubtedly the nutritional management of inborn errors of protein metabolism (IEPM) has improved since the early 1950s, but it is still associated with significant patient burden. The pace of development has not kept up with the increasing demands of the ‘real world’ or development in other areas of medicine. It is essential that research and

Promotion of nonfood species production to marginal, degraded lands abandoned by mainstream agriculture is affected by extremes of water availability (droughts and floods), which have increased in frequency and intensity and account for severe yield ...

Iron Sulfides Produced by Thermococcales: An Iron Detoxification Mechanism
Thermococcales, archaea from hydrothermal vents, promote iron sulfide precipitation, enabling survival in iron‐rich environments. Some cells become encrusted in pyrite and do not survive mineralization, while surviving cells activate metal detoxification genes. This biomineralization process allows the population to withstand toxic iron concentrations,
