An obligate alkaliphilic Bacillus strain was isolated from a soil sample and identified as Bacillus cohnii APT5 based upon phylogenetic and phenotypic analyses. The optimum growth pH of B. cohnii APT5 was 10.0. B. cohnii ...

With the development of nanotechnology and the wide use of iron oxide nanoparticles, it has become necessary to assess the potential adverse biological effects of magnetite. This study investigated the cytotoxicity, ...

(4S)-2-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid is new synthesized substance obtained from cysteine and valine. Thiazolidine derivates have important biological responses so scientists work intensively on ...

Primordial germ cells (PGCs) constitute an embryonic cell type that migrate to gonadal precursors and form the gametes. In many animals, PGCs are set apart from somatic cells early during embryogenesis. These cells migrate ...

A new species belonging to genus Ctenobelba (Caucasiobelba) by Subias & Shtanchaeva, 2010 is described and a firstly recorded species of genus Papillacarus Kunst, 1959 is redescribed using SEM micrographs.

Poly(2-oxazoline)s have been widely known for their biomedical applications. They mimic natural systems and are generally used as liposomes, drug and gene delivery modules and also as pseudopeptides. In this study, effects ...

Enantiomerically pure, fluorinated compounds have an important role in medicinal chemistry. Alternaria alternata isolates were used for the synthesis of (S)-2'-fluorophenylethan-1-ol 1b and (S)-3'-fluorophenylethan-1-ol ...
