Anti-bacterial effect of white tea extract on Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus salivarius
Due to the increasing frequency of drug-resistant strains among different types of microorganisms, the finding of antimicrobial and antifungal compounds of natural substances, which certainly has fewer side effects, has long been of interest to ...

Increased salinity improves the thermotolerance of mesophilic nitrification [PDF]
Nitrification is a well-studied and established process to treat ammonia in wastewater. Although thermophilic nitrification could avoid cooling costs for the treatment of warm wastewaters, applications above 40 A degrees C remain a significant challenge.

Recent trends in molecular diagnostics of yeast infections : from PCR to NGS [PDF]
The incidence of opportunistic yeast infections in humans has been increasing over recent years. These infections are difficult to treat and diagnose, in part due to the large number and broad diversity of species that can underlie the infection.
