Klebsiella pneumoniae T2-1-1 was isolated from the human tongue debris and subjected to whole genome sequencing on HiSeq platform and annotated on RAST. The nucleotide sequence of this genome was deposited into DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank under the accession JAQL00000000.

Dermabacter vaginalis AD1-86T was isolated from the vaginal fluid of a Korean woman. Whole genome sequencing analysis was conducted using a PacBio RS II platform and annotated on RAST. The nucleotide sequence of this genome was deposited into DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank under the accession NZ_CP012117.

The course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is frequently aggravated by exacerbations, and changes in the composition and activity of the microbiome may be implicated in their appearance. The aim of this study was to analyse the composition and the gene content of the microbial community in bronchial secretions of COPD patients in both stability and exacerbation. Taxonomic data w...

Trends in prevalence of atopic diseases and allergic sensitization in children from Eastern Germany during the 1990s were analysed. The study consisted of three regional cross-sectional surveys of a total of 7,632 children (aged 5-14 yrs) in 1992-1993, 1995-1996, and 1998-1999. Information was gathered on atopic diseases and potential predictors by a parental questionnaire. Allergic sensitizati...

Application of massively parallel throughput DNA sequencing technologies to the generation of metagenomic datasets from environmental samples is presently transforming the field of microbiology. Whereas traditional (Sanger-based) DNA sequencing technology imparted a high economic cost on data generation, the development of “next-generation” technologies now make the large-scale generation of se...

BACKGROUND The prevalence of Alternaria Alternata (AA), a mold causing in children severe asthma is scarcely known, also due to the underdiagnosis of AA allergy, frequently due to multiple sensitizations to molds. OBJECTIVE To analyze this issue we prospectively studied all children attending our Division between January 4, 1990 and December 31, 1997. METHODS A total of 6840 children with a...

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of 4 months of different training modalities on power, speed, skill and anaerobic capacity in 15-16 year old male basketball players. Thirty five Lithuanian basketball players were randomly assigned into three groups: power endurance group (intermittent exercise, PE, n = 12), general endurance group (continuous exercise, GE, n = 11) and contr...

This paper presents the steady state analysis of Rostov-II benchmark using conventional two-step approach. It involves STREAM/RAST-K and CASMO-5/PARCS code systems. documents a comprehensive code-to-code comparison between Serpent 2, CASMO-5, STREAM at lattice level for different fuel assemblies (FAs) loaded in core; PARCS, RAST-K core 2D. Finally, 3D results both deterministic models are compa...
