Microbial diversity in biodeteriorated Greek historical documents dating back to the 19th and 20th century: A case study
(2018)Paper documents in archives, libraries, and museums often undergo biodeterioration by microorganisms. Fungi and less often bacteria have been described to advance paper staining, so called “foxing” and degradation of paper ... -
Microbial spoilage investigation of thawed common cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) stored at 2 °C using next generation sequencing and volatilome analysis
(2018)Cephalopods are highly appreciated with increasing demand seafood, but are also very perishable and deteriorate fast mainly due to microbiological spoilage. For this reason exploration of bacterial communities through 16S ... -
Nicosulfuron application in agricultural soils drives the selection towards NS-tolerant microorganisms harboring various levels of sensitivity to nicosulfuron
(2016)The action mode of sulfonylurea herbicides is the inhibition of the acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) required for the biosynthesis of amino acids valine and isoleucine in plants. However, this enzyme is also present in a ... -
Novel feed including olive oil mill wastewater bioactive compounds enhanced the redox status of lambs
(2018)Background/Aim: The aim of the present study was to investigate the antioxidant effects of a feed supplemented with polyphenolic additives from olive mill wastewater (OMW) on lambs. Materials and Methods: Lambs received ... -

(2020)Context:Satureja khuzistanica Jamzad. (Lamiaceae), is known for its antifungal and antioxidant compounds, especially rosmarinic acid (RA). Objective: The study examines the effect of elicitors on RA production and phytochemical ... -
Removal of Chromium from Soils Cultivated with Maize (Zea Mays) After the Addition of Natural Minerals as Soil Amendments
(2017)The efficiency of natural minerals, i.e. zeolite, bentonite and goethite, regarding the retention of chromium, from maize was examined. Specifically, 1.0 kg of soil, 1.0 g of soil amendment and either 50 mg L−1 Cr(III) or ... -
Resource allocation and compensation during development in holometabolous insects
(2016)We provide an extensive review on current knowledge and future research paths on the topic of resource allocation and compensation during development in holometabolous insects, emphasizing the role of resource management ... -
Responses of sweet pepper (Capsicum annum L.) cultivated in a closed hydroponic system to variable calcium concentrations in the nutrient solution
(2021)BACKGROUND: The use of water containing calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2) at excessively high concentrations in closed hydroponic crops can cause calcium ion (Ca2+) accumulation in the recycled nutrient solution (NS) and ... -
Seasonal variation in bioactive properties and phenolic composition of cardoon (Cynara cardunculus var. altilis) bracts
(2021)Cardoon (Cynara cardunculus L.) bracts were collected at different maturation stages to investigate seasonal changes in the phenolic compounds profile and in vitro bioactivities. Among the 12 phenolic compounds tentatively ... -
Short- And long-term effects of amoxicillin/ clavulanic acid or doxycycline on the gastrointestinal microbiome of growing cats
(2021)Antibiotic treatment in early life influences gastrointestinal (GI) microbial composition and function. In humans, the resultant intestinal dysbiosis is associated with an increased risk for certain diseases later in life. ... -
Similar femoral growth and deformity with one screw versus two smooth pins for slipped capital femoral epiphysis
(2019)Purpose: To compare longitudinal growth and cam deformity of the proximal femur after treatment for slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) with one screw versus two smooth pins. Methods: We studied 43 patients (29 males, ... -
Slime-producing staphylococci as causal agents of subclinical mastitis in sheep
(2018)Hitherto, research work in slime production from staphylococcal strains of mastitis origin has focused in laboratory properties of these organisms. Objective of present work was to study subclinical mastitis in sheep, ... -
