Mercury (Hg) contamination is increasing worldwide in both wild ecosystems and agricultural soils due to natural processes, but mostly to anthropic activities. The molecular mechanisms involved in Hg toxicity and tolerance in plants have been extensively studied; however, the role of flavonoids in response to Hg stress remains to be investigated. We conducted a metabolomic study to analyze the changes induced at the secondary metabolite level in three Hg-tolerant and one Hg-sensitive cultivars.

Introduction: Strains can be classified in terms of biofilm production from quantitative absorbance values collectively by dividing strains into tertile ranks or individually by calculating the optical density for the negative control. However, these methods have not been compared in a large sample of Staphylococcus aureus strains. Therefore, our objective was to analyze the agreement between both methods in terms of biomass production and metabolic activity of their biofilm.

The presentation of intracranial metastases from Hodgkin's lymphoma is an infrequent event that worsens clinical outcome. A case of Hodgkin's lymphoma relapse in the cerebellum is described in a 70-year-old woman with a previously treated stage IVA Hodgkin's lymphoma. Diagnostic workup and treatment strategies for central nervous system relapses are reviewed and discussed.
