Investigación traslacional en microbioma (InTraMic): un área de interés común y creciente en el IMTIB, Hospital Italiano e Instituto Universitario
Translational research in microbiome (InTraMic): an area of common and growing interest at IMTIB, Hospital Italiano and Instituto Universitario

Se estima que aproximadamente 100 trillones de microorganismos (incluidos bacterias, virus y hongos) residen en el intestino humano adulto y que el total del material genético del microbioma es 100 veces superior al del genoma humano. Esta comunidad, conocida como microbioma se adquiere al momento del n...

Diversidad bacteriana en el biocátodo reductor de Cr(VI) de una Celda de Combustible Microbiana con puente salino
Bacterial diversity in the Cr(VI) reducing biocathode of a Microbial Fuel Cell with salt bridge

Rev. argent. microbiol; 51 (2), 2019
Although Cr(VI)-reducing and/or tolerant microorganisms have been investigated, there is no detailed information on the composition of the microbial community of the biocathode microbial fuel cell for Cr(VI) reduction. In this investigation, the bacterial diversity of a biocathode was analyzed using 454 ...

Catharanthus roseus (Apocynaceae) naturally infected with diverse phytoplasmas in Costa Rica

Rev. biol. trop; 67 (1), 2019
Abstract Phytoplasmas (class Mollicutes) are causal agents of plant diseases with an economic impact on crops or threatening local biodiversity. A survey was conducted from 2012 to 2016 on infected Catharanthus roseus plants that exhibited symptoms reminiscent of phytoplasma infection throughout Costa Ri...

Endocarditis infecciosa por Mycobacterium mageritense asociada a dispositivo cardíaco electrónico
Electronic cardiovascular device-associated to infective endocarditis caused by Mycobacterium mageritense

Rev. argent. microbiol; 51 (1), 2019
Las micobacterias de crecimiento rápido son una rara causa de endocarditis bacteriana. Durante las últimas décadas han aumentado las infecciones debido a este tipo de micobacterias, en especial las postraumáticas y las posquirúrgicas. Estas infecciones pueden ser localizadas o diseminadas, y tambié...

Impact of phosphate solubilizing bacteria on wheat (Triticum aestivum ) in the presence of pesticides

Braz. j. biol; 79 (1), 2019
Abstract Three phosphate solubilizing bacteria were isolated and identified by 16S rRNA sequencing as Pseudomonas putida, Pseudomonas sp and Pseudomonas fulva . The strains were subjected to plant biochemical testing and all the PGPR attributes were checked in the presence of pesticides (chlorpyrifos an...

Changes in the intestinal microbiota of superobese patients after bariatric surgery

Clinics; 74 (), 2019
OBJECTIVES: The gut microbiota is associated with obesity and weight loss after bariatric surgery and has been related to its changing pattern. Exactly how the bacterial population affects weight loss and the results of surgery remain controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the intestinal microbiota ...

Relationship between acetaldehyde concentration in mouth air and characteristics of microbiota of tongue dorsum in Japanese healthy adults: a cross-sectional study

J. appl. oral sci; 27 (), 2019
Abstract Acetaldehyde, associated with consumption of alcoholic beverages, is known to be a carcinogen and to be related to the tongue dorsum. Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between acetaldehyde concentration in mouth air and bacterial characteristics on the tongue ...

Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection is not associated with primary biliary cholangitis

Gastroenterol. latinoam; 30 (2), 2019
ANTECEDENTES: La colangitis biliar primaria (CBP) es una enfermedad hepática inflamatoria crónica colestásica de causa desconocida. Varios patógenos virales y bacterianos han sido propuestos como factores que podrían gatillar una respuesta inmune por mimetismo molecular, o directamente estar relacio...

Breastfeeding increases microbial community resilience

J. pediatr. (Rio J.); 94 (3), 2018
Abstract Objective Since the present group had already described the composition of the intestinal microbiota of Brazilian infants under low social economic level, the aim of the present study was to analyze the microbial community structure changes in this group of infants during their early life due t...
