Improving carbon cycle projections for better carbon management [PDF]

, 2016
Forests absorb large amounts of carbon from the atmosphere through photosynthesis and store a significant fraction of the carbon in biomass and soils. A March 2016 workshop focused on how best to use modeling approaches, field measurements, and satellite

Impact of Heating Rates on Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris Heat Resistance under Non-Isothermal Treatments and Use of Mathematical Modelling to Optimize Orange Juice Processing

Foods, 2021
Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris is a spoilage microorganism responsible for relevant product and economic losses in the beverage and juice industry. Spores of this microorganism can survive industrial heat treatments and cause spoilage during posterior ...

A stochastic interspecific competition model to predict the behaviour of Listeria monocytogenes in the fermentation process of a traditional Sicilian salami

, 2008
The present paper discusses the use of modified Lotka-Volterra equations in order to stochastically simulate the behaviour of Listeria monocytogenes and Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) during the fermentation period (168 h) of a typical Sicilian salami.

Microscopic Observation Drug Susceptibility Assay for Rapid Diagnosis of Lymph Node Tuberculosis and Detection of Drug Resistance. [PDF]

, 2015
In this study, 132 patients with lymphadenopathy were investigated. Fifty-two (39.4%) were diagnosed with tuberculosis (TB). The microscopic observation drug susceptibility (MODS) assay provided rapid (13 days), accurate diagnosis (sensitivity, 65.4 ...

Behavior of Vibrio spp. in Table Olives

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The presence of Vibrio species in table olive fermentations has been confirmed by molecular biology techniques in recent studies. However, there has been no report of any foodborne outbreak caused by Vibrio due to the consumption of table olives, and ...

Obtaining Microbiological and Pharmacokinetic Highly Predictive Equations

Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2018
In this paper, a Multilinear Regression (MLR) analysis has been carried out in order to accurately predict physicochemical properties and biological activities of a group of antibacterial quinolones by means of a set of structural descriptors called topological indices.

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Control of Listeria monocytogenes in chicken dry-fermented sausages with bioprotective starter culture and high-pressure processing

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Listeria monocytogenes is one of the most relevant pathogens for ready-to-eat food, being a challenge for the food industry to comply with microbiological criteria. The aim of the work was to assess the behavior of L.

Predictive Microbiology and HACCP

Journal of Food Protection, 1996
While both predictive microbiology and hazard analysis critical control point (HACCP) programs are still in the developmental stages as food-safety tools, predictive models are available that are potentially useful in the development and maintenance of HACCP systems. When conducting a HACCP study, models can be used to assess the risk (probability) and
