Critical Water Activity for the Preservation of Lactobacillus bulgaricus by Vacuum Drying
(Elsevier Science, 2008-12)
Lactobacillus delbrueckkii subsp. bulgaricus was dried under vacuum at different temperatures and its preservation evaluated following three parameters: lag time, percentage of membrane damage and z potential). Microorganisms ...
Effect of acclimation medium on cell viability, membrane integrity and ability to consume malic acid in synthetic wine by oenological Lactobacillus plantarum strains
(Wiley, 2013-11)
Aims: The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of acclimation on the viability, membrane integrity and the ability to consume malic acid of three oenological strains of Lactobacillus plantarum. Methods and Results: ...
Damage and repair of the neuronal membrane: From neural development to axonal trauma and restoration
(Elsevier, 2019)
Integrity of the plasma membrane is essential for the maintenance of physiological conditions, metabolic activity and the shape of eukaryotic cells. In neurons, the plasma membrane surrounding the axon—the axolemma—fulfills ...
Damage and repair of the axolemmal membrane: From neural development to axonal trauma and restoration
(Elsevier Academic Press Inc., 2019-10)
Integrity of the plasma membrane is essential for the maintenance of physiological conditions, metabolic activity and the shape of eukaryotic cells. In neurons, the plasma membrane surrounding the axon—the axolemma—fulfills ...
Interactions of flavan-3-ols and procyanidins with membranes: mechanisms and the physiological relevance
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-01)
Flavonoids are a type of phenolic compound widely present in edible plants. A great number of health benefits have been ascribed to flavonoid consumption in the human population. However, the molecular mechanisms involved ...
Free cholesterol and cholesterol esters in bovine oocytes: Implications in survival and membrane raft organization after cryopreservation
(2017)
Part of the damage caused by cryopreservation of mammalian oocytes occurs at the plasma
membrane. The addition of cholesterol to cell membranes as a strategy to make it more tolerant
to cryopreservation has been little ...
Interactions of “de novo” designed peptides with bacterial membranes: Implications in the antimicrobial activity
(Elsevier Science, 2020-11)
Antimicrobial peptides are small molecules that display antimicrobial activity against a wide range of pathogens. In a previous work, by using model membranes we studied P6, a peptide that shows no antimicrobial activity, ...
Conserved ram seminal plasma proteins bind to the sperm membrane and repair cryopreservation damage
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2011-02)
Whole seminal plasma (SP) enhances the function and fertility of frozen/thawed ram sperm. The objective of the current study was to investigate whether SP proteins capable of binding to molecules from the sperm plasma ...
Detection of nitric oxide synthase isoenzymes (NOS) in normal and alterated synovial membrane from equine metacarpophalangeal jointDetección de isoenzimas sintasas de óxido nítrico (NOS) en membrana sinovial de articulaciones metacarpofalángicas equinas normales y con daño macroscópico
