The inactivation effects and mechanism of ohmic heating (OH) on Bacillus cereus ATCC 11778 were investigated in this study, conventional heating (CH) was also carried out and served as control. All OH treatments (10 V/cm 50 Hz, 10 V/cm 500 Hz, 5 V/cm 50 Hz and 5 V/cm 500 Hz) could achieve a comparable inactivation effect with CH, while OH treatments significantly shortened the processing time. OH treated cells exhibited significantly higher leakage of metal ions (Mg and K) and biomacromolecules (nucleic acids and proteins) than those treated with CH when bacterial suspensions were heated to the same temperature. Moreover, OH treatment caused more damage on membrane structure, greatly decreased the cell membrane potential and endogenous enzyme activity than that of CH. The results of this study indicated that OH is more efficient in the inactivation of bacteria.

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has emerged as a promising technology for neutralizing microbes, including multidrug-resistant strains. This study investigates CAP's potential as an alternative to traditional antimicrobial drugs for microbial inactivation. In the era of increasing antimicrobial resistance, there is a persistent need for alternative antimicrobial strategies.

Panicle elongation length (PEL), which determines panicle exsertion, is an important outcrossing-related trait. Mining genes controlling PEL in rice (Oryza sativa L.) has great practical significance in breeding cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) lines with increased PEL and simplified, high-efficiency seed production.

Proteases are hydrolases that act on peptide bonds, releasing amino acids and/or oligopeptides, and are involved in essential functions in all organisms. They represent an important segment of the global enzyme market, with applications in the food, leather, detergent, and pharmaceutical industries. Depending on their industrial use, proteases should exhibit high activity under extreme conditions, such as low temperatures, e.

Ginkgolide B (GB) is a bioactive constituent found in Ginkgo biloba leaves that has been long recognized as a protective agent against many neurological disorders. Our study aimed to examine the effect of GB in an in vitro Parkinson's disease (PD) model and to investigate its neuroprotective mechanism as a primary objective. SK-N-SH cells were challenged with 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP) to act as a PD-like model of neuronal damage.

Layşmanyaz, yaklaşık 90'dan fazla ülke ve bölgeden bildirilen, ciddi ve endemik bir bulaşıcı hastalıktır. Kutanöz layşmanyaz (KL) ise vücudun açıkta kalan bölgelerinde oluşan, başlıca semptomları arasında vektör Phlebotomus ısırığından altı ay sonra kronikleşebilen veya kendiliğinden iyileşebilen ciltte tek, birden fazla ülserli veya nodüler lezyonlar bulunan, ölümcül olmayan ancak kalıcı izler bırakabilen bir hastalıktır. Klasik tedavi yöntemleri, uygulamada zorluk, direnç gelişimi ve yan etki gibi bir dizi soruna neden olmaktadır.
