Saccharomyces cerevisiae plays a primordial role in alcoholic fermentation and has a vastworldwide application in the production of fuel-ethanol, food and beverages. The dominance of S. cerevisiae over other microbial species during alcoholic fermentations has been traditionally ascribed to its higher ethanol tolerance. However, recent studies suggested that other phenomena, such as microbial interactions media...
In present work we investigated the antagonistic effect by S. cerevisiae against several wine-related microbial species vis-à-vis the secretion of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs).
Considerando o mais profundo processo de integração regional da actualidade, a União Europeia (UE) é decididamente uma referência para qualquer tipo de experiência de integração regional no mundo. Mas, as assimetrias dentro das fronteiras internas levaram a Comunidade a adoptar políticas, pois, era imperioso encontrar medidas que mitiguem os efeitos negativos do processo de liberalização trazido pela integração...
Polyvinyl acetate (PVAc)-based glues are very common in the furniture and joinery industries, among others, quite probably because they are relatively cheap and very easy to handle and apply. However, as the mechanism of gluing lies on the absorption of water by wood or wood derivatives, having as a consequence the coalescence of the polymer, their application is restricted to wood with less than 12% moisture c...
J Biol Inorg Chem (2004) 9: 145–151 DOI 10.1007/s00775-003-0506-z ; We report the characterization of the molecular properties and EPR studies of a new formate dehydrogenase (FDH) from the sulfate-reducing organism Desulfovibrio alaskensis NCIMB 13491. FDHs are enzymes that catalyze the two-electron oxidation of formate to carbon dioxide in several aerobic and anaerobic organisms. D. alaskensis FDH is a hetero...
