Abstract Bacterial trapping using nanonets is a ubiquitous immune defense mechanism against infectious microbes. These can entrap microbial cells, effectively arresting their dissemination and rendering them more vulnerable to locally secreted microbicides. Inspired by this evolutionarily conserved anti‐infective strategy, series of 15 16 residue‐long synthetic β‐hairpin peptides herein constru...

Within the field of food hygiene and food control, the antibiotic residues in food of animal origin are analysed because their presence may have undesirable consequences. These include for example, allergic reactions in people, spread of resistance to antibiotics among microorganisms and damages in the food industry. Methods available for the detection of antibiotic residues in food are microbi...

Antibiotics are substances either produced naturally by living organisms or synthetically in the laboratory, and they are able to kill or inhibit the growth of microorganisms. Antibiotics are also used as feed additives for the purpose of livestock health maintenance. Antibiotic residues in feedstuffs are currently a problem of some magnitude in different parts of the world, particularly due to...

N-Demethylvancomycin, which has been clinically used in China, is one member of vancomycin group (glycopeptide) antibiotics. It differs from vancomycin only in that methyl group on the amino group of the N-terminal residue of vancomycin has been replaced by H. By reductive alkylation of N-demethylvancomycin, we synthesized N-alkyl and N,N'-dialkyl N-demethylvancomycins, which closely correlated...

Biochar-immobilized microorganism technology is an effective way to remove antibiotic contamination in aqueous solutions. In this study, the effect and mechanism of immobilization Bacillus subtilis by honeysuckle residue–derived biochar for removal chlortetracycline (CTC) were investigated using corn straw as a comparison. The biochar’s structural characteristics properties determined scanning ...

Given an arbitrary n, we consider anisotropic quadratic forms of dimension n over all fields of characteristic = 2 and prove that the height of an n-dimensional excellent form (depending on n only) is the (precise) lower bound of the heights of all forms of dimension n.

a trial study was carried out to assess the influence of the plant residue management in conjuction with application of different nitrogen sources on wheat yield and components, at the agricultural faculty of shahidchamran university of ahvaz during 2011-2012.the experimental design was splitplot at randomized completed block design arrangement. the main plot were different wheat residue manage...

Quail farms (Coturnix sp.) are inseparable from the antibiotic uses, breeders who use antibiotics without observing appropriate rules could cause residues in tissues and organs of animals, including eggs. Consumption quail eggs containing by have a negative impact on health. consumed public generally come traditional markets. The survey results show that Karang jasi market is Mataram city sells...

The most frequent determinant of aminoglycoside antibiotic resistance in Gram-positive bacterial pathogens is a bifunctional enzyme, aminoglycoside acetyltransferase-6'-aminoglycoside phosphotransferase-2" (AAC(6')- aminoglycoside phosphotransferase-2", capable of modifying a wide selection of clinically relevant antibiotics through its acetyltransferase and kinase activities. The aminoglycosid...
