Structure of the lipopolysaccharide O-antigen of Serratia spp. strains 10.1WK and 1XS plant endophytes isolated from O. biennis and L. corniculatus
Carbohydr Res. 2023 Jan 25;524:108760. doi: 10.1016/j.carres.2023.108760. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTO-specific polysaccharides (O-PSs) isolated from lipopolysaccharides of Serratia spp., strains 10.1WK and 1XS, which are endophytic bacteria of Oenothera biennis (common evening-primrose) and Lotus corniculatus (bird's-foot trefoil), plants growing on a petroleum hydrocarbon polluted site in the Silesia region, were investigated. The high-molecular-weight O-PS fractions liberated from lipopolysaccharides by mild acid hydrolysis were studied using chemical methods, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and a set of 1D and 2D NMR s...

Synthesis of cubosomes containing cerium oxide nanoparticles from Lactobacillus acidophilus loaded with glatiramer acetate and carboxymethylcellulose coating
Int J Biol Macromol. 2023 Jan 12:123215. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123215. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCerium oxide nanoparticles (nano-series) are used as catalysts in industrial applications due to their free radical scavenging properties. Given that free radicals play an essential role in the pathology of many neurological diseases, we investigated the use of nanocrystals as a potential therapeutic agent for oxidative damage. This project synthesized nano-series from a new and environmentally friendly bio-pathway. Investigation of cerium nitrate in culture medium containing inoculated Lactobacillus acidophilus stra...

Viruses, Vol. 14, Pages 2249: Prospective Alternate Hosts of an Emerging Polerovirus in Cotton Landscapes in the Southeastern United States
babu Srinivasan The identification of alternate hosts that can act as virus inoculum sources and vector reservoirs in the landscape is critical to understanding virus epidemics. Cotton leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV) is a serious pathogen in cotton production and is transmitted by the cotton/melon aphid, Aphis gossypii, in a persistent, circulative, and non-propagative manner. CLRDV was first reported in the United States in Alabama in 2017, and thereafter in several cotton-producing states. CLRDV has since established itself in the southeastern United States. The role of alternate hosts in CLRDV establishment is not clea...

Molecules, Vol. 27, Pages 3190: Statistical FT-IR Spectroscopy for the Characterization of 17 Vegetable Oils
č Vegetable oils have been utilized for centuries in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries, and they contribute beneficially to overall human health, to active skincare, and to effective treatments. Monitoring of the vegetable oils is carried out by the methods described in the European Pharmacopeia, which is time-consuming, has poor repeatability, and involves the use of toxic organic chemicals and expensive laboratory equipment. Many successful studies using IR spectroscopy have been carried out for the detection of geographical origin and adulteration as well as quantification of oxidation parameters. T...

Vegetable Butters and Oils as Therapeutically and Cosmetically Active Ingredients for Dermal Use: A Review of Clinical Studies
While the chemical composition of vegetable butters and oils has been studied in detail, there is limited knowledge about their mechanisms of action after application on the skin. To understand their dermal effects better, 27 clinical studies evaluating 17 vegetable oils (almond, argan, avocado, borage, coconut, evening primrose, kukui, marula, mustard, neem, olive, rapeseed, sacha inchi, safflower, shea butter, soybean and sunflower oils) were reviewed in this research. The reviewed studies focused on non-affected skin, infant skin, psoriasis, xerosis, UVB-induced erythema, atopic dermatitis, molluscum contagiosum, tungia...
