Mating modifies oxidative stress in the brain and confers protection against Parkinson's Disease in a Drosophila model.

Mating exerts profound and multifaceted effects on the physiology of female insects, particularly influencing metabolic alterations and bolstering stress resilience. Drosophila melanogaster has emerged as an excellent model to investigate the mechanism of neurodegenerative diseases. However, interplay between mating and its impact on the Drosophila brain remains a tantalizing enigma, awaiting elucidation.

Antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation as an alternative approach to inhibit the growth of by fine-tuning the activity of CpxRA two-component system.

is an opportunistic foodborne pathogen primarily found in powdered infant formula (PIF). To date, it remains challenging to control the growth of this ubiquitous bacterium. Herein, antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (aPDI) was first employed to inactivate .

Photodynamic inactivation of Staphylococcus aureus in the system of titanium dioxide nanoparticles sensitized by hypocrellin B and its application in food preservation.

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a foodborne pathogen that endangers human health worldwide. Antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (aPDI), mediated by titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiONP), was recently used to control the growth of S.

Efficacy of Slightly Acidic Electrolyzed Water for Inactivation of Cronobacter sakazakii and Biofilm Cells.

Abstract: The disinfection efficacy and mechanism of activity of slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) were investigated against Cronobacter sakazakii. Treatment with three concentrations of SAEW decreased C. sakazakii by 23 to 55% after 2 min.

Evaluation of Structural Changes and Molecular Mechanism Induced by High Hydrostatic Pressure in .

The contamination of infant milk and powder with poses a risk to human health and frequently caused recalls of affected products. This study aims to explore the inactivation mechanism of induced by high hydrostatic pressure (HHP), which, unlike conventional heat treatment, is a nonthermal technique for pasteurization and sterilization of dairy food without deleterious effects. The mortality of under minimum reaction conditions (50 MPa) was 1.

Synergistic effect of hypocrellin B and curcumin on photodynamic inactivation of Staphylococcus aureus.

Antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (aPDI) serves as a new approach to control the growth of foodborne bacteria. It remains elusive if the photodynamic efficacy of hypocrellin B (HB) can be potentiated by joint action with curcumin. In this study, we measured the survival rate of Staphylococcus aureus strains under the varying photodynamic conditions.
