In this research, the survival of probiotic microorganisms in yogurts stored at room temperature (cold chain interruption conditions) was studied. Milk inoculated with yogurt bacteria (mixed culture of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus) and a single probiotic culture (L. acidophilus LA-5 or Bifidobacterium lactis Bb-12 or L. rhamnosus HN001 or L. paracasei...

This study investigated the effect of cold plasma seed treatment on tomato bacterial wilt, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum (R. solanacearum), and the regulation of resistance mechanisms. The effect of cold plasma of 80W on seed germination, plant growth, nutrient uptake, disease severity, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) concentration and activities of peroxidase (POD; EC 1.11.1.7), polyphenol oxidase...

plants are always exposed to vast aspects of either environmental biotic or abiotic stresses and those stresses affecting the plant growth and therefore crop production. molecular and physiological mechanisms influence plant resistance to environmental stresses, therefore the identification of these mechanisms can be an important step in challenging the damages. in this study, plant physiologic...

Cold rolling of steel is one of the most important metal forming processes so an accurate control of its parameters during the process is necessary. In this paper, the friction coefficient has been proposed as a function of cold rolling parameters such as forward slip, forward and backward tensile stresses ,strip thickness, static deformation, resistance of strip before and after rolling ,strip...

This study examined the effects of regular post-exercise cold application on muscular and vascular adaptations induced by moderate-intensity resistance training. 14 male subjects participated in resistance training: 5 sets of 8 wrist-flexion exercises at workload of 70-80% of the single repetition maximum, 3 times a week for 6 weeks. 7 subjects immersed their experimental forearms in cold water...

UNLABELLED Extreme radiation-resistant microorganisms can survive doses of ionizing radiation far greater than are present in the natural environment. Radiation resistance is believed to be an incidental adaptation to desiccation resistance, as both hazards cause similar cellular damage. Desert soils are, therefore, promising targets to prospect for new radiation-resistant strains. This is the ...

Rubber trees are economically important tropical tree species and the major source of natural rubber, which is an essential industrial material. This tropical perennial tree is susceptible to cold stress and other abiotic stresses, especially in the marginal northern tropics. Recent years, the genome sequencing and RNA-seq projects produced huge amount of sequence data, which greatly facilitate...

Weaned pigs were separated into eight treatments including a control without exposure to apramycin; a control with exposure to apramycin; and apramycin plus either cold stress, heat stress, overcrowding, intermingling, poor sanitation, or intervention with oxytetracycline, to determine the effects of management and environmental conditions on antibiotic resistance among indigenous Escherichia c...

This work compares the presowing treatment of winter wheat seeds with a low-temperature plasma, constant high-voltage electric field, plant protection disinfectant, and cold hardening on resistance seedlings to freezing their morphophysiological characteristics at initial stage germination. Various combinations were considered, including effect disinfectant jointly plasma treatment. The greates...
