Identification and isolation of PHA producing bacteria [PDF]

, 2021
Polyhydroxyalkanoáty (PHA) jsou mikrobiální zásobní polyestery, které mohou představovat obnovitelnou a ekologicky šetrnou alternativu k petrochemickým plastům. Jejich výroba a využití jsou do velké míry znevýhodněny vysokou produkční cenou.

Hospital Volume and Post‐Hepatectomy Liver Failure After Major Hepatectomy

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Post‐hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) following major hepatectomy (MH) increases the risk of morbidity and death. The relationship between institutional MH volume, PHLF, and outcomes is not well characterized. Methods Adults undergoing MH from 2014 to 2021 in the ACS NSQIP hepatectomy‐targeted database were included.

Corrosion Performance of Steel and Zinc‐Based Materials in Diverse Unsaturated Soils: Insights From a 2‐Year Field Exposure

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
The present study generated the corrosion performance of C‐steel, zinc, and galvanized steel in different global unsaturated soil environments for 2 years. Acceptable matching was observed between corrosion rates and identified corrosion products. To properly predict soil corrosion, the results showed that DIN 50929 should include a drainage‐capability

Outpatient preoperative parenteral nutrition in malnourished surgical patients: A feasibility study (the OPPORTUNITY study)

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Preoperative parenteral nutrition (PN) improves outcomes in malnourished surgical patients. Traditionally, this requires hospital admission, increasing length of stay and costs—challenges worsened by limited hospital bed availability. Outpatient PN may offer a feasible alternative.

Fruit use and fruit processing by euphonias, specialized avian frugivores

Oikos, EarlyView.
Euphonias (Neotropical passerines in the genera Euphonia and Chlorophonia) form the quintessential example of a specialized avian frugivore, combining a high reliance on fruit as food and the restriction of fruit taxa exploited. To understand their specialization, we explored the integration of fruit morphological and nutritional traits with their ...

Separation of polyhydroxyalkanoates-producing bacterial strains using PHA synthase gene and their evaluation for PHA deposition [PDF]

, 2013
In this study, a variety of samples were screened for the presence of PHA synthase gene. Results showed that 16 out of 102 isolated were positive for PHA respective genes. The highest prevalence was observed in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Compatibilization and Reinforcement of PHB/PBAT Blends via Sequential Blending of Surface‐Modified Cellulose

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Sequential blending improved the mechancial properties of PHB/PBAT/cellulose composites as compared to the one‐step batch mixing method. ABSTRACT Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a natural and biodegradable polymer generated by bacteria. While its applications to potentially replace petroleum‐based plastics are severely limited due to its brittleness and ...
