Objective: To study the effects of an acute lifestyle change in human semen oxidative stress (OS) by applying seminal parameters and OS markers to feasibility mid-infrared spectroscopy with Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) as a complementary tool evaluate on sperm samples.Material methods: Sperm samples were collected from healthy male students (n=8) who voluntarily submitted themselves changes during academic festivities.The obtained before after festivities compared basic analyses...
A bacterial strain, PhyBa_CO2_2T, was isolated from the North Atlantic Gyre, offshore Terceira Island in Azores. Initially, NCBI nucleotide blast analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain belongs to genus Brachybacterium, with a 100 % identity Brachybacterium paraconglomeratum LMG 19861T. However, further genomic characterization through average (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization analyses showed values of 96.06 64.80 %, respectively. Comparative genomics also...
