The lactic acid bacteria count was performed on MRS agar (from Man, Rogosa, Sharpe, Merck, Germany) added with the indicator bromocresol (0.004%), being considered as lactic bacteria the yellow (acid producing), catalases negative and gram-positive colonies. Agar PCA (standard counting agar, ...
Broad Bean Leaf Polyphenol Oxidase Is a 60-Kilodalton Protein Susceptible to Proteolytic Cleavage Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) in leaves is generally considered to be a 45-kilodalton protein. PPO purified to homogeneity from broad bean (Vicia faba L.) leave... Simon P. Robinson and Ian B. Dry -...
Many microorganisms use a genetic regulatory mechanism to monitor their cell density and to establish a coordinated behaviour1,2,3. This regulation mechanism, initially identified in bacteria, has been termed quorum sensing (QS). It is based on the production of diffusible signal molecules (also ca...
The suppression of photosynthesis by BPA is independent of root To eliminate the possible negative influence of BPA on root system and the indirect impress to the photosynthesis in leaves, we submerged the cucumber leaves into different concentrations of BPA solutions and water for 3 h in this ...

An HFD increases the abundance of Gram-negative bacteria [12,21,22], which contain lipopolysaccharides (LPS) on their outer membrane. The lipid A component (or endotoxin) of LPS binds to toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) [23], leading to the activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) ...

When one starts to think about it, one finds that synergism is everywhere. Thus, bacteria and viruses synergize in causing infection, other causes of diseases synergize, drugs synergize, etc. Here, I will comment only on two types (cases) of synergism. In the first case, causes of a ...
