Glycogen and poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) are excellent biopolymer products from cyanobacteria. In this study, we demonstrate that nitrogen metabolism is positively influenced by the exogenous application of trehalose (Tre) in under nitrogen-deprived (-N) conditions. Cells were cultivated photoautotrophically for 5 days under -N conditions, with or without the addition of exogenous Tre.

This disease is detected using conventional blood smears, which are time-consuming and have low sensitivity. This study aimed to investigate a more rapid and sensitive method for detecting infection in dogs by examining the expressed serum protein profiles using proteomics.

Water is a primary product of combustion being a most significant advantage of H being environmentally friendly with the capacity to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions.

These diseases are of great importance and are distributed globally. This study aimed to create new primers for the identification of and in naturally infected dogs using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), DNA sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis using the rDNA and genes.
