Determination of changes during storage in chemical and microbial compositions of yoghurts made from buffalo milk and buffalo and cow milk mixtures

Arch. latinoam. nutr; 69 (2), 2019
This study was aimed to determine and compare the chemical and microbiological properties of yoghurts made from different types of milk and their mixtures (35%, 65%, and 100%) during their storage at 4 °C for 28 days. For this purpose, chemical and microbiological properties of yoghurts during storage a...

The expression of and preoperative correlation between heat-shock protein 70, euroscore, and lactate in patients undergoing cabg with cardiopulmonary bypass

Abstract Objetive: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) improved symptoms and increased survival and quality of life in patients with coronary artery disease. However, it should be the main cause of a complex organic systemic inflammatory response that greatly contrib...

Lactate clearance: prognostic mortality marker in trauma patients

Rev. colomb. anestesiol; 47 (1), 2019
Abstract Introduction: High lactate values are associated with adverse outcomes in almost all clinical situations, lactate levels above 2 mmol/L are proposed as an early and reliable marker of tissue hypoperfusion, and lactate clearance during treatment has also been proposed during resuscitation as a p...

Viability Assays of PLLA Fibrous Membranes Produced by Rotary Jet Spinning for Application in Tissue Engineering

Abstract Tissue engineering suggests different forms to reconstruct tissues and organs. One of the ways is through the use of polymeric biomaterials such as poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA). PLLA is a recognized material in tissue engineering due to its characteristics as biocompatibility and bioresorbability....

Efeito da endotoxemia na temperatura corporal, pressão arterial média e nas concentrações de nitrato e lactato plasmáticos em ratos

Na endotoxemia e na sepse alterações nos sinais vitais e em biomarcadores estão presentes e sinalizam o grau de comprometimento fisiológico. Embora a interpretação sobre as concentrações do óxido nítrico (NO) e do lactato plasmáticos na pressão arterial sejam bem estabelecidas na literatura, ...

Papel da interação entre bactérias láticas isoladas de alimentos na produção de bacteriocinas

Bacteriocinas produzidas por bactérias láticas (BAL) apresentam um importante potencial de aplicação na bioconservação de alimentos, por sua ação antimicrobiana contra algumas espécies de microrganismos patogênicos de relevância, como Listeria monocytogenes. Este estudo analisou o efeito da in...

Sepsis: evolving concepts and challenges

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 52 (4), 2019
Sepsis remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with increased burden in low- and middle-resource settings. The role of the inflammatory response in the pathogenesis of the syndrome has supported the modern concept of sepsis. Nevertheless, a definition of sepsis and the criteria for it...
