A Comparative Study of Skimmed Milk and Cassava Flour on the Viability of Freeze-Dried Lactic Acid Bacteria as Starter Cultures for Yogurt Fermentation.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the survival rates and fermentation performance of three freeze-dried lactic acid bacterial cultures previously isolated from Ghanaian traditional fermented milk. LAB cultures, i.e.

CBD resistant strains are susceptible to epsilon 34 phage tailspike protein.

The rise of antimicrobial resistance is a global public health crisis that threatens the effective control and prevention of infections. Due to the emergence of pandrug-resistant bacteria, most antibiotics have lost their efficacy. Bacteriophages or their components are known to target bacterial cell walls, cell membranes, and lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and hydrolyze them.

CBD Extract Exhibits Synergy with Broad-Spectrum Antibiotics against subsp. serovar .

New generation antibiotics are needed to combat the development of resistance to antimicrobials. One of the most promising new classes of antibiotics is cannabidiol (CBD). It is a non-toxic and low-resistance chemical that can be used to treat bacterial infections.

Modulatory Effect of Gut Microbiota on the Gut-Brain, Gut-Bone Axes, and the Impact of Cannabinoids.

The gut microbiome is a collection of microorganisms and parasites in the gastrointestinal tract. Many factors can affect this community's composition, such as age, sex, diet, medications, and environmental triggers. The relationship between the human host and the gut microbiota is crucial for the organism's survival and development, whereas the disruption of this relationship can lead to various inflammatory diseases.

Bacteriophages as Biocontrol Agents in Livestock Food Production.

Bacteriophages have been regarded as biocontrol agents that can be used in the food industry. They can be used in various applications, such as pathogen detection and bio-preservation. Their potential to improve the quality of food and prevent foodborne illness is widespread.

CBD Extract Shows Promising Antibacterial Activity against and .

Products derived from L. have gained increased interest and popularity. As these products become common amongst the public, the health and potential therapeutic values associated with hemp have become a premier focus of research.

Decellularized Avian Cartilage, a Promising Alternative for Human Cartilage Tissue Regeneration.

Articular cartilage defects, and subsequent degeneration, are prevalent and account for the poor quality of life of most elderly persons; they are also one of the main predisposing factors to osteoarthritis. Articular cartilage is an avascular tissue and, thus, has limited capacity for healing and self-repair. Damage to the articular cartilage by trauma or pathological causes is irreversible.

Role of Immune Cells in the Initiation and Progression of Pulmonary Fibrosis.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) entails complex pathophysiological processes and complicated mechanisms. It is a type of lung disease that has no known cure. The disease's chronic inflammatory response is triggered by the abnormal activation of alveolar cells that create mediators that promote the development of myofibroblast and fibroblast foci.

A genetic analysis of an important hydrophobic interaction at the P22 tailspike protein N-terminal domain.

P22 bacteriophage has been studied extensively and has served as a model for many important processes such as in vivo protein folding, protein aggregation and protein-protein interactions. The trimeric tailspike protein (TSP) serves as the receptor-binding protein for the P22 bacteriophage to the bacterial host. The homotrimeric P22 tail consists of three chains of 666aa in which the first 108aa form a trimeric dome-like structure which is called the N-terminal domain (NTD) and is responsible for attachment of the tailspike protein to the rest of the phage particle structure in the phage assembly pathway.
