Clostridium botulinum and Clostridium perfringens Occurrence in Kazakh Honey Samples

Toxins, 2019
The aim of this study was to assess occurrence of Clostridium botulinum and Clostridium perfringens in honey samples from Kazakhstan. Analyses were carried out using a set of PCR methods for identification of anaerobic bacteria, and detection of toxin ...

Protection of hamsters from mortality by reducing fecal moxifloxacin concentration with DAV131A in a model of moxifloxacin-induced Clostridium difficile colitis [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, American Society for Microbiology, 2017, 2017
BackgroundLowering the gut exposure to antibiotics during treatments can prevent microbiota disruption. We evaluated the effect of an activated charcoal-based adsorbent, DAV131A, on fecal free moxifloxacin concentration and mortality in a hamster model of moxifloxacin-induced C.

CLOSTRIDIUM BOTULINUM [PDF]

, 2022
Rod Clostridium čine sporogene, gram-pozitivne, anaerobne štapićaste bakterije. Pripadnici ovog roda imaju industrijski i medicinski značaj, obzirom da proizvode opasne toksine. Vrsta Clostridium botulinum široko je rasprostranjena, a proizvodi najotrovniji poznati toksin, botulinski neurotoksin, koji zbog jedinstvenih farmakoloških obilježja ima ...

Arrangement of the Clostridium baratii F7 toxin gene cluster with identification of a σ factor that recognizes the botulinum toxin gene cluster promoters.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) is the most poisonous substances known and its eight toxin types (A to H) are distinguished by the inability of polyclonal antibodies that neutralize one toxin type to neutralize any of the other seven toxin types.

Process intensification strategies for enhanced holocellulose solubilization: Beneficiation of pineapple peel waste for cleaner butanol production [PDF]

Journal of Cleaner Production 199 (2018) 937-947, 2018
Biorefinery sector has become a serious dispute for cleaner and sustainable development in recent years. In the present study, pretreatment of pineapple peel waste was carried out in high pressure reactor using various pretreatment-enhancers. The type and concentration effect of each enhancer on hemicellulose solubilization was systematically ...

Preventing Foodborne Illness: Clostridium botulinum

EDIS, 2014
Clostridium botulinum is ubiquitous in nature, often found in soil and water. The bacteria and spores alone do not cause disease, but they produce the botulinum toxin that causes botulism, a serious paralytic condition that can lead to death.

Stiffness of the C-terminal disordered linker affects the geometry of the active site in endoglucanase Cel8A [PDF]

, 2016
Cellulosomes are complex multi-enzyme machineries which efficiently degrade plant cell-wall polysaccharides. The multiple domains of the cellulosome proteins are often tethered together by intrinsically disordered regions. The properties and functions of these disordered linkers are not well understood. In this work, we study endoglucanase Cel8A, which

Bayesian Decision Tree for the Classification of the Mode of Motion in Single-Molecule Trajectories [PDF]

T\"urkcan, Silvan, and Jean-Baptiste Masson. "Bayesian decision tree for the classification of the mode of motion in single-molecule trajectories." PloS one 8.12 (2013): e82799, 2015
Membrane proteins move in heterogeneous environments with spatially (sometimes temporally) varying friction and with biochemical interactions with various partners. It is important to reliably distinguish different modes of motion to improve our knowledge of the membrane architecture and to understand the nature of interactions between membrane ...
