Many pharmaceutical products find their way into receiving waters, giving rise to concerns regarding their environmental impact. A procedure was proposed that enables ranking of the hazard to aquatic species and human health due to such products. In the pr ...
Antibiotics are used to fight pathogens but also target commensal bacteria, disturbing the composition of gut microbiota and causing dysbiosis and disease1. Despite this well-known collateral damage, the activity spectrum of different antibiotic classes on ...
Notch signaling is a highly conserved developmental pathway that plays important roles in the regulation of cellular processes including cell fate decisions and stem cell maintenance. A tight regulation of the Notch cascade ensures proper tissue homeostasi ...
Occurrence and bioaccumulation of 20 antibiotics, including fluoroquinolones (FQs), sulfonamids (SAs), macrolids (MLs), tetracyclins (TCs),diaminopyrimidins (DPs) and nitro-imidazols (NIs) in an amphipod crustacean (Gammarus pulex) inhabiting in the small ...
We describe a protocol for the discovery of synergistic drug combinations for the treatment of disease. Synergistic drug combinations lead to the use of drugs at lower doses, which reduces side effects and can potentially lead to reduced drug resistance, w ...
Bench-scale heat flux calorimetry is applied to monitor complex microbial systems producing secondary metabolites and having a rheol. complex behavior. With such systems, biol. metabolic activity can only be measured accurately if calorimetry is improved b ...
This review presents natural products from cyanobacteria. Several classes of secondary metabolites are highlighted. Toxic metabolites from these prokaryotic photosynthetic organisms include compounds such as microcystin, anatoxin and saxitoxin, which displ ...
