Chemical characterization, cytotoxicity, antimicrobial and antioxidant potential of Justicia pectoralis Jacq and Croton jacobinensis Baill extracts

Abstract In this research, aqueous and ethanolic extracts from Justicia pectoralis Jacq and Croton Jacobinensis Baill were characterized. The UPLC-QTOF-MSE analysis was performed on the extracts identified, predominantly, flavonoids, tannins and acids. The extracts did not indicate toxicity in human epit...

Interações populacionais mediadas por quorum sensing na microbiota do soro-fermento utilizado na produção do queijo Canastra

Bactérias regulam a expressão de diversos fenótipos de acordo com a sua densidade populacional, em um comportamento conhecido como quorum sensing. Em micro-organismos de origem alimentar, o quorum sensing pode influenciar na formação de biofilmes, produção de toxinas e de enzimas hidrolíticas. Em...

Buffering action of acetate on hydrogen production by Ethanoligenens harbinense B49

Electron. j. biotechnol; 19 (5), 2016
The buffering effect of acetate on hydrogen production during glucose fermentation by Ethanoligenens harbinense B49 was investigated compared to phosphate, a widely used fermentative hydrogen production buffer. Specific concentrations of sodium acetate or phosphate were added to batch cultures, and the e...
