In the present study, the effect of different concentrations of cell-free supernatant (CFS; 10.00 and 35.00 mg g-1) of Lactobacillus salivarius (Ls-BU2) on chemical, microbial and sensorial specifications of ground beef stored under the refrigerated condition was investigated. The antibacterial activity of CFS on Escherichia coli was also assessed. According to agar...

conclusions our findings indicate that probiotic bacterial strains of lactobacillus have a significant inhibitory effect on the growth of p. aeruginosa ptcc 1430. the antimicrobial potency of this combination can be useful for designing and developing alternative therapeutic strategies against p. aeruginosa infections. results the results showed a significant effect of cfs on the growth of p. a...

background: chronic fatigue syndrome (cfs) is a complex condition involving severe fatigue and disabling musculoskeletal and cognitive symptoms. we reported that 6, 12 and 24 months following infectious mononucleosis (im), 13%, 7% and 4% of adolescents, respectively, met criteria for cfs. whether endocrinologic or immunologic dysfunction accompanies cfs is unclear. objectives: to determine if s...

BACKGROUND Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS), and fibromyalgia (FM) commonly co-occur. Some propose that CFS, MCS, and FM are manifestations of the same illness based on high rates of co-occurrence and overlapping diagnostic criteria. This study seeks to differentiate these diagnoses by comparing individuals with one or more illness on functioning, psychiatric ...

Immunological dysregulation is present in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME), with recent studies also highlighting the importance of examining symptom severity. This research addressed this relationship between CFS/ME severity subgroups, assessing serum immunoglobulins and serum cytokines in severe and moderate CFS/ME patients. Participants included healthy controls (n...

In this paper, cyclic flaring and sinking (CFS) as a new severe plastic deformation (SPD) method was employed to produce the ultrafine grain (UFG) copper tubes. The extra friction has eliminated in the CFS method that provided the possibility for production of longer UFG tubes compared to the other SPD methods. This process was done periodically to apply more strain and consequently finer grain...
