Previous studies have suggested that a relationship exists between severity and transmissibility of malaria variations in the gut microbiome, yet only limited information on temporal dynamics microbial community during malarial infection. Here, using rhesus macaque model relapsing malaria, we investigate how affects microbiome. In this study, performed 16S sequencing DNA isolated from rectal swabs macaques over course an experimental infection with Plasmodium cynomolgi analyzed bacterial...
The average fatty acid (FA) composition of canola oil is made up 62% oleic (C18:1n9), 19% linoleic (C18:2n6), 9% linolenic (C18:3n3) and 7% saturated FA (SFA). We investigated whether boreal climate (7.5-17.2 °C) favorably altered the canola. Results indicate that cultivated in climatic conditions had approximately twice levels omega-3 (17-20%) compared to from other growing areas (9%). presence monoacetyldiacylglycerol (MAcDG), a unique class triglyceride, reported for first time climate,...
Abstract Cryptoendolithic bacterial communities in the Jurassic Navajo Sandstones play an important ecological role this ecosystem. Developing a better understanding of these cryptoendolithic required deeper knowledge microbial diversity present. We analyzed eight sandstones samples from several microgeological features associated with large sandstone dome. is clustered into three distinct groups which correlated topography, suggesting duration water retention might be factor. Comparisons...
