The Great Microbiome Extraction Anomaly: How Extraction Bias Distorts Microbial Community Profiles
Specimen chemistry and nucleic acid state (intracellular, host‐associated, adsorbed, extracellular) influence recovery. Extraction efficiency varies by microbial biology (e.g., reduced lysis of Gram‐positive bacteria). Even under consistent protocols, these factors systematically distort measured community composition relative to the true microbiome ...

ABSTRACT Medicago sativa L. (alfalfa) harbors a remarkably diverse reservoir of bioactive secondary metabolites. Flavonoids, isoflavones, and triterpenoid saponins dominate its bioactivity landscape, driving potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, antimicrobial, estrogenic, hypolipidemic, and cytotoxic actions through redox modulation, membrane ...

Production, purification, sequencing and activity spectra of mutacins D-123.1 and F-59.1 [PDF]
Background The increase in bacterial resistance to antibiotics impels the development of new anti-bacterial substances. Mutacins (bacteriocins) are small antibacterial peptides produced by Streptococcus mutans showing activity against bacterial pathogens.

Differentiation of Micrococcus luteus and Micrococcus varians on the Basis of Catalase Isoenzymes [PDF]
Crude extracts prepared from four Micrococcus varians strains, 11 M. luteus strains and four laboratory isolates subsequently classified with M. luteus were assayed for catalase activity following electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels. The enzyme patterns produced from the M. varians strains exhibited three catalase isoenzymes which were distinguished
