Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...

Acanthamoeba castellanii Can Facilitate Plasmid Transfer Between Environmental Pseudomonas spp
ABSTRACT The conditions in which antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes are transferred in natural environments are poorly understood. Acanthamoeba castellanii (a cosmopolitan environmental amoeba) feeds on bacteria by phagocytosis, which places the consumed bacteria closely together in a food vacuole (phagosome) of the amoeba.

"Rejuvenescence in protozoa" [PDF]
The process of conjugation in protozoa involves either temporary or permanent union of two individuals. During this union there is a fusion of nuclear material from both organisms resulting in the formation of new cleavage nuclei in each exconjugant. The process is directly comparable with fertilization of an egg by a spermatozoon, and the biological ...
