Fate and impact of organics in an immersed membrane bioreactor applied to brine denitrification and ion exchange regeneration [PDF]
, 2010 The application of membrane bioreactors (MBRs) to brine denitrification for ion exchange regeneration has been studied. The developed culture was capable of complete brine denitrification at 50 gNaCl.l−1.

Complementary Role of CD4+ T Cells in Response to Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccines in Humans
Vaccines, 2019 Bacterial pathogens expressing capsular polysaccharides are common causes of mucosal infections (pneumonia, intestinal), as well as often fatal, invasive infections (meningitis, bloodstream infections) in children and adults worldwide.

Surface Polysaccharide Extraction and Quantification
Bio-Protocol, 2013 Gram-negative bacterial cells possess two membranes - the inner cytoplasmic membrane and the outer membrane. The two membranes are distinct in their composition; the inner membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer, whereas the outer membrane (OM) is

The digestion of yeast cell wall polysaccharides in veal calves [PDF]
, 1976 1. The digestibility of the cell wall polysaccharides of an alkane-grown yeast in different parts of the digestive tract of two veal calves fitted with re-entrant cannulas at the end of the ileum was studied by replacing part of the skim-milk powder of ...

Masking the Pathogen: Evolutionary Strategies of Fungi and Their Bacterial Counterparts
Journal of Fungi, 2015 Pathogens reduce immune recognition of their cell surfaces using a variety of inert structural polysaccharides. For example, capsular polysaccharides play critical roles in microbial survival strategies.

Bacterial polysaccharide synthesis and export [PDF]
Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2016 All domains of life make carbohydrate polymers and by anchoring them to lipid molecules they can decorate the outside of the cell. Polysaccharides are linked to proteins by glycosylation, a process found in both bacteria and in higher organisms. Bacteria do have other distinct uses for carbohydrate polymers; in gram-negative bacteria glycolipids form ...
