Twenty seven essential oils, isolated from plants representing 11 families of Portuguese flora, were screened for their nematicidal activity against the pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. The essential oils were isolated by hydrodistillation and the volatiles by distillation-extraction, and both were analysed by GC and GC-MS. High nematicidal activity was achieved with essential oils from Cham...
Determinou-se a ocorrência de Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella spp. e de microrganismos indicadores de contaminação fecal em queijos-coalho comercializados em 15 pontos de venda do Mercado Central de Aracaju, SE, durante quatro meses. Dezesseis amostras (26,7%) foram positivas para Salmonella spp. e 28 (46,7%) positivas para estafilococos coagulase positiva. Quanto à contaminação por coliformes totais, 56 (93,...
The gut barrier monitors and protects the gastrointestinal tract from challenges such as microorganisms, toxins and proteins that could act as antigens. There is evidence that gut barrier dysfunction may act as a primary disease mechanism in intestinal disorders. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the barrier function towards sugars after the appropriate treatment of celiac disease and Crohn's disease...
As gramíneas, usadas comumente para reabilitação de áreas degradadas, podem formar associações em suas raízes com bactérias fixadoras de nitrogênio e, assim, contribuir para a sustentabilidade do ecossistema. Por outro lado, a diversidade microbiana exerce papel relevante na resiliência dos processos biológicos do solo, que incluem a fixação biológica de N2. O presente estudo teve como objetivo a caracterização...
The present study examined the in vitro and in vivo development of bovine nuclear-transferred embryos. A bovine fetal fibroblast culture was established and used as nucleus donor. Slaughterhouse oocytes were matured in vitro for 18 h before enucleation. Enucleated oocytes were fused with fetal fibroblasts with an electric stimulus and treated with cytochalasin D and cycloheximide for 1 h followed by cycloheximi...
PCR has been used to analyze the distribution of REP (Repetitive Extragenic Palindromic) and ERIC (Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus) sequences (rep-PCR) found within the genome of the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis, with the purpose to analyze the genetic similarities among 56 subspecies samples and 95 field isolates. The PCR products were analyzed by EB-AGE (ethidium bromide-agarose electropho...
