Combined effect of Tetracycline compounds and essential oils on antimicrobial resistant isolated from the swine food chain.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses risks for food stakeholders because of the spread of resistant microbes and potential foodborne diseases. In example, pigs may carry strains, which can infect humans through contaminated food preparations. Due to their antibacterial properties and capacity to modulate bacterial drug resistance, essential oils (EOs) are attracting interest as prospective substitutes for synthetic antimicrobials which can help to reverse microbial resistance.

Words as social tools (WAT): A reprise.

The paper presents new evidence collected in the last five years supporting the Words As social Tools proposal on abstract concepts. We discuss findings revolving around three central tenets. First, we show that-like concrete concepts-also abstract concepts evoke sensorimotor experiences, even if to a lower extent, and that they are linked to inner experiences (e.

Exploring the Metabolome and Antimicrobial Properties of L. (Baklouti and Paprika) Dried Powders from Tunisia.

In this study, for the first time, the volatile fraction from two domesticated accessions ("Paprika" and "Baklouti") collected in Tunisia was investigated by two complementary analytical techniques, such as Solid-Phase Microextraction-Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (SPME-GC/MS) and Proton Transfer Reaction-Time-of-Flight-Mass Spectrometry (PTR-ToF-MS). The obtained results highlighted the presence of a high number of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), including monoterpene and sesquiterpene compounds with -curcumene, I-zingiberene, -bisabolene and -sesquiphellandrene as the major components. In addition, GC/MS was used to investigate the non-volatile chemical composition of the dried powders and their extracts, which were found to be rich in sulfur compounds, fatty acids and sugars.

Prevention of rheumatoid arthritis using a familial predictive medicine approach.

Most of the chronic-degenerative diseases deserve a very early recognition of symptoms and signs for the earliest secondary prevention, which could be also very useful in many cases for the most precocious clinical approach. The periodic monitoring of a subject at risk of a specific disease, because of genomic predisposition by predictive medicine approach, may help to earlier detection of onset and/or the progression of the pathology itself, through intra-individual monitoring. This is particularly the case of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) for which an early diagnosis is undoubtedly the first step to ensure the most proper therapy for the patient.
