ABELMOSCHUS ESCULENTUS (L.) MOENCH POLYSACCHARIDE ENHANCES THE RESISTANCE OF BIFIDOBACTERIUM LONGUM MYL16 TO FREEZE-DRYING AND ARTIFICIALLY DIGESTIVE PROCESSES

The protective effect of Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench polysaccharide for Bifidobacterium longum MYL16 from freeze-drying and digestive processes was investigated.Our results indicated after freeze-drying, the log (CFU/g) of B.longum MYL16 without protectant decreased from 10.52 to 4.98, while supplementation of 20% polysaccharide with 20% ski

Background/aimsContinuous glucose monitoring is a well-tolerated and versatile graco ascent tool for management of diabetes and metabolic disease.While its use appears to be feasible to monitor glycemic profiles in diabetics, there is a paucity of data in individuals with obesity and normal glucose tolerance.The aim of this study is to investigate

Paecilomyces/Purpureocillium has recently been recognized as an emerging human pathogen, causing serious infection in immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients.Several predisposing factors have been reported, including foreign body implants, previous surgery, or trauma.Treatment with antifungal drugs often fails as species-specific differences

Abstract Background Understanding genome organization and evolution is important for species involved in transmission of human diseases, such as mosquitoes.Anophelinae and Culicinae subfamilies of mosquitoes show striking differences in genome sizes, sex chromosome arrangements, behavior, and ability to transmit pathogens.However, the genomic basis
