Six mutants of Cryptococcus neoformans resistant to nystatin and pimaricin and three mutants resistant to amphotericin B were isolated by ultraviolet irradiation techniques from two wild-type strains. The major sterols of the wild-type strains were Delta(7)-ergosten-3beta-ol and ergosterol. All six mutants resistant to nystatin and pimaricin showed either loss of ergosterol and concurrent produ...

There is currently limited knowledge on the role of hormones in plants responses to combinations of abiotic and pathogen stress factors. This study focused on the response of tomato near-isogenic lines (NILs) that carry the Ol-1, ol-2, and Ol-4 loci, conferring resistance to tomato powdery mildew (PM) caused by Oidium neolycopersici, to combined PM and salt stress. These NILs were crossed with ...

An experimental model that allowed differentiation between endogenously and exogenously derived urinary oxalate was used to assess the effect of different forms and doses of ingested calcium on oxalate absorption and excretion. In replication 1 (R-1), subjects participated in three oxalate load (OL) tests: baseline (OL alone), calcium carbonate (OL with concomitant calcium carbonate ingestion),...

BACKGROUND The timely onset of stage II lactogenesis (OL) is important for successful breastfeeding and newborn health. Several risk factors for delayed OL are common in women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), which may affect their chances for successful breastfeeding outcomes. OBJECTIVE We investigated the prevalence and risk factors associated with delayed OL in a raci...

In the present study a various phytochemical compounds that have been isolated from Melia azedarach and showed phytoconstituents leaves against three of pathogenic fungi are as follows: Alternaria alternate, Neoscytalidium dimidiatum Sordaria fimicola. ''The Phytochemical M. were exposed to (GC-MS) analysis. The results highest activity reviewed fungal, (Alternaria fimicola). All concentrations...

1-Octen-3-ol is a kairomone for many haematophagous insects including mosquitoes. Numerous studies have examined the effects of racemic 1-octen-3-ol; however, few studies have investigated the role of individual enantiomers in relation to mosquito attraction. In the present study, we investigated the behavioural and electrophysiological responses of two mosquito species, Aedes aegypti and Culex...

AIMS This study looks to assess the oral health status in the study subjects and to quantify the prevalence of WHO defined HIV-related oral stage 3 and 4 lesions (HIV-OL) as those conditions are indicating need for treatment independently of CD4 count. METHODS This quantitative screening study used both structured questionnaire and clinical examination to determine the prevalence of HIV-OL in...

We identified a novel neuroprotective compound, 1-methoxyoctadecan-1-ol, from Uncaria sinensis (Oliv.) Havil and investigated its effects and mechanisms in primary cortical neurons and in a photothrombotic ischemic model. In primary rat cortical neurons against glutamate-induced neurotoxicity, pretreatment with 1-methoxyoctadecan-1-ol resulted in significantly reduced neuronal death in a dose-d...
