Objective: To establish a workflow for isolating single trophectoderm (TE) and inner cell mass (ICM) cells and to simultaneously evaluate these cells for copy number variation (CNV) as well as methylome development.
Design: Experimental.
Setting: Academic medical center.
Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate the correlation between serum estradiol (E) levels during artificial autologous frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles and ongoing pregnancy/live birth rates (OP/LB).
Methods: A historical cohort study was conducted in an academic setting in order to correlate peak and average estradiol levels with ongoing pregnancy/live birth rates for all autologous artificial frozen embryo transfer cycles performed from 1/2011 to 12/2014.
Results: Average and peak E levels from 110 autologous artificial FET cycles from 95 patients were analyzed.
ANAEROBIC SOIL DISINFESTATION IN MICROCOSMS OF TWO SANDY SOILS.
Commun Agric Appl Biol Sci

In recent years, anaerobic soil disinfestation (ASD) has been proposed as an alternative control method of soil-borne plant pathogens. It involves adding a labile carbon source, irrigating the soil to stimulate decomposition of organic material and then covering the soil with air-tight plastic to limit gas exchange. During the ASD process, soil microorganisms switch from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism.

- DE195, when grown with Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough (DVH) as a co-culture or alongside Methanobacterium congolense (MC), showed significantly increased dechlorination rates compared to being grown alone.
- The cell yield of DE195 improved in the co-culture, but not further in the tri-culture, indicating DVH plays a key role in enhancing DE195's growth.
- Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses revealed that DVH contributes to DE195's robust growth by providing fermentation products and other metabolic advantages, while MC did not offer significant additional benefits.
Background: Initial interest in Dechloromonas aromatica strain RCB arose from its ability to anaerobically degrade benzene. It is also able to reduce perchlorate and oxidize chlorobenzoate, toluene, and xylene, creating interest in using this organism for bioremediation. Little physiological data has been published for this microbe.
