Despite major attempts to prevent cholera transmission, millions of people worldwide still must address this devastating disease. Cholera research has so far mainly focused on the causative agent, the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, or on disease treatment, but ...
Polypropionates are common products of metabolism in bacteria, insects, fungi and marine organisms. They constitute an important class of products with a wide range of interesting biological activities. Our group has shown previously that 1-alkoxy-3-acylox ...
Following the empirical evidence of a clear correlation between rainfall events and cholera resurgence that was observed in particular during the recent outbreak in Haiti, a spatially explicit model of epidemic cholera is re-examined. Specifically, we test ...
For thousands of years, nature provided us remedies to treat diseases and its biologically active molecules inspired chemists for the development of new drugs. In 1993, three research groups independently reported the isolation, from sponges, of spongistat ...
The present invention relates to new 2-piperazin-1-yl-4H-1,3-benzothiazin- 4-one derivatives and their use for the treatment of mammalian infections caused by bacteria, especially diseases like tuberculosis (TB), Buruli ulcer and leprosy that result from i ...
We have studied the distribution and community composition of denitrifying bacteria in the stratified water column and at the sediment-water interface in lakes Plusee and Schohsee, and a near-shore site in the Baltic Sea in Germany. Although environmental ...
Marine organic aerosol emissions have been implemented and evaluated within the National Center of Atmospheric Research (NCAR)'s Community Atmosphere Model (CAM5) with the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's 7-mode Modal Aerosol Module (MAM-7). Emissio ...
During the last two decades, marine organisms such as sponges, tunicates, softcoral and starfish proved to be productive sources of structurally complex metabolites presenting unprecedented architectures.[1] These marine natural products often display unex ...
Marine and freshwater ecosystems are fundamentally different regarding many biotic and abiotic parameters. The physiological adaptations required for an organism to pass the salinity barrier are considerable. Many eukaryotic lineages are restricted to eith ...
The environmental reservoirs for Vibrio cholerae are natural aquatic habitats, where it colonizes the chitinous exoskeletons of copepod molts. Growth of V. cholerae on a chitin surface induces competence for natural transformation, a mechanism for intra-sp ...
