The increasing rates of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) represent an important threat to health care systems and treatment of CPE infections is a challenge. The aim of the infection-carbapenem resistance evaluation surveillance trial (iCREST) was to determinate the prevalence of CPE in urine specimens in Spain and to evaluate the in vitro activity of ceftazidime-avibactam. Urine specimens (n = 11 826) were included and activity of ceftazidime-avibactam and comparators were investigated ...

Abstract For successful regeneration, the identity of the missing tissue must be specified according to the pre-existing tissue. Planarians are ideal for the study of the mechanisms underlying this process; the same field of cells can regrow a head or a tail according to the missing body part. After amputation, the differential activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signal specifies anterior versus posterior identity. Initially, both wnt1 and notum (Wnt inhibitor) are expressed in all wounds, but 48 hours ...

The problem of group delay distortion in last generation LFM radars has been identified as an important handicap for the development of high performance broadband systems. A simple digital calibration technique is now proposed to overcome this problem. Although it has been developed for pulsed synthetic aperture radars it can be easily applied to other LFM systems.

In a first experiment, five pigs were inoculated intranasally with porcine rubulavirus (PoRV) at 5 days of age and killed 7 days post-infection (pi). In a second experiment, four pigs were infected with the same virus at 17 days of age and killed at 9 or 15 days pi. Control piglets in each experiment received uninfected cell culture supernate. All PoRV-infected pigs developed respiratory and nervous signs, and histological lesions of non-suppurative encephalitis and interstitial pneumonia. All control ...

Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) results from incompatibility between nuclear and cytoplasmic genomes, and is characterized by the inability to produce viable pollen. The restoration of male fertility generally involves the introgression of nuclear genes, termed restorers of fertility (Rf). CMS has been widely used for hybrid seed production in many crops but not in wheat, partly owing to the complex genetics of fertility restoration. In this study, an acrocentric chromosome that restores pollen fertility ...

Several studies have shown that some rare respiratory diseases, such as alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), cystic fibrosis (CF), and primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) present oxidative stress (OS) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Their involvement in these pathologies and the use of antioxidants as therapeutic agents to minimize the effects of OS are discussed in this review.

The effect of solution pH revealed that the adsorption capacity of BC towards fluoride from water raised ...

Legumes are among the most important sources of protein worldwide, but their consumption is limited by the presence of antinutritional factors such as trypsin inhibitors (TIs). The most common strategy to inactivate TIs is by thermal treatments (TT) and other methods such as the use of reducing agents seems promising, because of their selectivity. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of TT and reducing agents (metabisulfite –MB- or L-cysteine –LCys-) over TIs activity from chickpea (CP) ...
