Phenolic compounds associated with essential oils of spices and herbs possess a variety of antioxidant and antimicrobial properties that interfere with Salmonella detection from fresh and dried products. Finding a compound to neutralize the effect of these antimicrobial compounds, while allowing
Phenolic compounds, like carvacrol, in oregano interfere with the detection of foodborne pathogens such as Salmonella enterica. Carvacrol concentration varies based on plant cultivars and growth region. Six oregano cultivars were used to compare the impact of carvacrol concentration on Salmonella
Salmonella Typhimurium inhabits a variety of environments and is able to infect a broad range of hosts. Throughout its life cycle, some hosts can act as intermediates in the path to the infection of others. Aspergillus niger is a ubiquitous fungus that can often be found in soil or associated to
Liver S9 fractions were prepared from male and female Syrian Golden hamsters and Sprague-Dawley rats, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months of age, which were either uninduced (corn-oil treated) or induced with Aroclor 1254 suspended in corn oil. These preparations were compared at varying protein levels for their
Effects of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on immune responses in poultry have been reported. However, effects on the underlying mechanisms, such as the role of cytokines, have not been documented because the necessary tools were lacking. Recently, primer sets for chicken interleukin
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effects of herbal extracts derived from plants commonly prescribed by traditional practitioners for the treatment of typhoid fever.
METHODS
A cross sectional study.
METHODS
Departments of Life Sciences and Chemistry, University of Buea, Cameroon.
METHODS
Methanol extracts
A thiamine biosynthesis gene, thi3, from maize Zea mays has been identified through cloning and sequencing of cDNA and heterologous overexpression of the encoded protein, THI3, in Escherichia coli. The recombinant THI3 protein was purified to homogeneity and shown to possess two essentially
Common food constituents were examined to determine the protective influence they may exert on a mixture of Salmonella species heated by microwave energy. A model system was developed, wherein combinations of sucrose, sodium chloride, caseinate and corn oil, all at 1.0% (w/v) concentrations, were
We studied the effects of Salmonella typhimurium lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on in vivo cytokine mRNA levels in chickens, and investigated whether these levels could be altered by different nutrients. Two hundred and forty chicks were assigned in a 2 x 4 factorial design of treatments. Factors were
Induction of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) and 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (7-EOD) activities as well as of benzo[a]pyrene (BP) metabolite formation in rat prostatic microsomes has been demonstrated after treatment with beta-naphthoflavone (BNF). The capacity to convert promutagenic
A study was done to determine if a four-strain mixture of multidrug-resistant Salmonella typhimurium definitive type 104 (DT104) cells and a four-strain mixture of S. typhimurium non-DT104 cells differed in ability to survive in whole egg powder, whole egg powder supplemented with corn syrup solids
The study was undertaken to understand effects and survival of S. enterica subspecies enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium), a zoonotic serovar, on maize seed germination and plant growth. All the four strains of S. enterica subspecies enterica serovar Typhimurium significantly reduced
Surfactants like particles (SLP) are secreted by Intestinal epithelium. These particles have the ability to lower surface tension of intestinal epithelial cells and contain small amounts of surfactant specific proteins A, B, and D. In the intestinal lumen they are known to function as lubricants
p-Chloro-alpha,alpha,alpha trifluorotoluene (CTFT) is a volatile, aromatic liquid used as a chemical intermediate in the manufacture of dinitroaniline herbicides. To evaluate the toxicity of CTFT, groups of F344/N rats and B6C3F1 mice of each sex were administered CTFT by gavage once a day for 14
The biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has been proved to be a cost effective and environmental friendly approach toward chemical and physical methods. In the present study, biosynthesis of AgNPs was carried out using aqueous extract of Zea mays (Zm) husk. The initial colour change from
