Fluoride movement into and out of Bacillus spores and growing cells and effects of fluoride accumulation on spore properties
ConclusionsThese results are consistent with F− incorporation into the dormant spore core, and as either HF and/or NaF, but not CaF2. YhdU played no significant role in F− uptake or efflux in dormant spores, but assisted in F− export early in spore germination.Significance and impact of studyThis knowledge provides new insight into effects of F− onBacillus cells and spores and how this anion moves into, and out of spores.This article is protected by copyright.

Diversity and enzymatic profiles of indigenous yeasts isolated from three types of palm wines produced in C ôte d'Ivoire
ConclusionsDiverse yeast species colonized palm wines, among which some were related to a specific type of wine and the majority of them have the ability to digest starch, sugar, protein or lipid.Significance and Impact of the StudyThis study is a first step in understanding the significance of indigenous yeast flora of palm wines from C ôte d'Ivoire. This knowledge is important as a tool for establishing new indigenous yeast collection; which could be used for the product quality improvement and as enzyme sources for biotechnological purposes.This article is protected by copyright.
