How that late sabbath afternoon you sat cross-legged on their lawn, Elder S at your side, the couple just across, backs to her summer garden— conversation meandered like two months in town—you and rambling metal roads along harbor, through coastal bush, seeking strangers God— words now hush behind memory but giving lingers— mid-story she turned plucked a flax leaf from How, still telling, folde...

Two unusual occurrences of pleural trichomonosis due to a new Tetratrichomonas species previously reported but not named were confirmed. In one patient, Trichomonas tenax and a Tetratrichomonas species were also detected in the oral cavity by molecular methods. We suggest that this new Tetratrichomonas species be named Tetratrichomonas empyemagena.

Developing mass rearing systems for the drone fly, Eristalis tenax, is a crucial step toward its use as complementary commercial pollinator. To meet timing of needs E. there significant value to both predicting and managing reproductive output development within protocol. help achieve this, our study focuses on laboratory manipulation adult mating eggs in tenax. stagger colony cohorts, egg temp...

The analysis of PAHs in environmental samples involves sampling, extraction, concentration and final analysis using GCMS. Traditional extraction of PAHs from a solid matrix, where much of the PAH reside, is a tedious and time consuming process. Thermal desorption (TD) can replace the traditional sample preparation step in the analysis scheme with a more efficient and direct method, which also e...

The sequencing, cloning, and expression of the pfp gene from Dictyoglomus thermophilum, which consists of 1,041 bp and encodes a pyrophosphate-dependent phosphofructokinase, are described. A phylogenetic analysis indicates that the enzyme is closely related to the pyrophosphate-dependent enzyme from Thermoproteus tenax. The recombinant and native enzymes share a high degree of similarity for mo...

entamoeba gingivalis and trichomonas tenax are protozoans that live in/on the teeth, gums and sometimes tonsils, and may cause periodontitis and gingivitis. the aim of this research was studying the frequency of buccal protozoa in patients referred to dentistry clinics of jundishapur university of medical sciences. in this cross-sectional study, samples were collected from the mouth of 200 pati...

PCR analysis in two unusual occurrences of trichomoniasis, trichomonal empyema due to Trichomonas tenax and Trichomonas vaginalis in an infant urine sample, allowed us to obtain rapid and accurate trichomonad species identification. The weak sensitivity of wet preparations and the low viability of the flagellates can be remedied by the PCR method.
