In April 2009 and 2010, severe symptoms of stalk rot of sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) plants cvs. MEX-79-431, MEX-69-749, and RB-73-9735 were observed in commercials fields located in southeast Michoacan state, Mexico. The diseased plants exhibited complete discoloration of foliage, ascendant
Arabitol has several applications in food and pharmaceutical industries as a natural sweetener, dental caries inhibitor, and texturing agent. Newly isolated yeast strains from seawater, sugarcane plantation soil samples, and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii 2635 from MTCC were tested for arabitol
In 5 rural Kenyan children, the effect of sugarcane chewing on plaque pH was compared with the effect of a mouthrinse with 10% sucrose at various intraoral sites. They all had poor oral hygiene and at least two carious cavities in occlusal surfaces of molars. pH measurements were conducted under
The work history information from a population-based case-control study conducted in Puerto Rico was analyzed using a job exposure matrix to investigate the relationship between occupational exposures and cancers of the oral cavity or pharynx. After adjustment for age, alcohol, smoking, and
Cariogenicity of five commonly consumed carbonated beverage and sugar containing drinks (Frooti, sugarcane juice, Limca, Thumps up and Big Sipp) was evaluated by estimating changes in pH of human dental plaque and saliva in 2 groups of subjects (20 each) differing in caries experience (Group A DMFT
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effects of particulate (granule-shaped) SCB on bone repair relating it to its biocompatibility and bone neoformation.
METHODS
Thirty Wistar rats were submitted to a one 7-mm-diameter defect and divided equally into three experimental groups, with two different postoperative
Due to the environmental concerns and the increasing price of oil, bioethanol was already produced in large amount in Brazil and China from sugarcane juice and molasses. In order to make this process competitive, we have investigated the suitability of immobilized Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain
A repeated batch fermentation system was used to produce ethanol using Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain (NCIM 3640) immobilized on sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) pieces. For comparison free cells were also used to produce ethanol by repeated batch fermentation. Scanning electron microscopy
A sugar cane extract (SCE) has been found to have an immunostimulating effect in several animals. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is known to induce endotoxin shock via the production of inflammatory modulators such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and nitric oxide (NO). We examined in the present
Cystatin B was recently identified as an acid-resistant protein in acquired enamel pellicle; it could therefore be included in oral products to protect against caries and erosion. However, human recombinant cystatin is very expensive, and alternatives to its use are necessary. Phytocystatins are
Summary Molecular studies into sugarcane leaf scald disease, caused by X. albilineans, revealed an unusual pathogenesis strategy, a new family of antibiotics, an extraordinary biosynthetic apparatus, and a new approach to disease control in plants and animals.
METHODS
Bacteria; Proteobacteria; gamma
The sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis Fabricius, is a pest to sugarcane and many other crops. This work aims to characterize morphological variability in the epithelial cells (columnar, goblet and regenerative) along the midgut of D. saccharalis larvae. Fragments of the midgut (anterior, middle
The techniques used to assess pH in silages vary greatly. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of water-to-sample ratio, extraction procedure, and standing time on pH determination. Silage samples (n = 20 for each silage) were chosen to represent diverse crops (corn, elephant grass,
The dietary habits of children expose the oral cavity to challenging environments. A durable interface between the restorative material and tooth surface is essential to ensure marginal integrity thereby contributing to the longevity of restoration.
The objective of this study was to compare the
A new species of Tylenchorhynchus Cobb, 1913 from Paraguay, T. shimizui n. sp., and T. leviterminalis Siddiqi, Mukherjee & Dasgupta, 1982 from Japan are described and illustrated. T. shimizui n. sp. is a monosexual species characterised by females with a medium-sized body, L=0.70-0.82 mm, stylet
