Case ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsConsumption of an Extremely Biodiverse Probiotic and a Supplement based on Microbial Chondroitin Sulfate is Associated with Very Low Serum Alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (Nagalase) Activity and Decrease of C-reactive Protein ValuesMichael Carter, Stefania Pacini, Marco RuggieroWe describe the case of a 57-years-old male healthy professional who added to his nutritional plan a novel, extremely biodiverse, probiotic and a supplement based on microbial chondroitin sulfate, vitamin D3 and ultrapure phosphatidylcholine to improve his healthy life expectancy. After three months of such a nutritional regimen, serum alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (nagalase) activity was 0.40 that is a value below the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 22 Apr 2020 · 13,049 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUse of an Extremely Biodiverse Probiotic and a Supplement Based on Microbial Chondroitin Sulfate is Associated with a Significant Decrease of Serum Free Kappa Light Chains as well as a Trend Toward Normalization of Kappa/Lambda Ratio and of Plasma Cell Bone Marrow Infiltration in a Case of Multiple MyelomaNicola Antonucci, Stefania Pacini, Marco RuggieroWe describe the case of a 71-year-old woman with multiple myeloma associated with severe chronic renal insufficiency who, since October 2018, assumed a novel, extremely biodiverse, probiotic and a supplement based on microbial chondroitin sulfate, vitamin D3 and ultrapure phosphatidylcholine; such a nutritional regimen was associated with a dramatic decrease of serum free Kappa light chains (from 2,190 to a … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 18 Jun 2019 · 27,910 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSwiftlet Bacteriophages Concerning Diversity and Biological Features in South Kalimantan, IndonesiaSiti Gusti Ningrum, Hana Cipka Pramuda Wardhani, Intan Permatasari HermawanWe aimed to isolate and characterize bacteriophages infecting Nitrobacter spp. from swiftlet house environments and to evaluate their biological properties as potential biocontrol agents to mitigate nitrate accumulation in edible bird’s nest (EBN) production. Environmental samples were collected from multiple swiftlet houses in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. Samples were enriched with Nitrobacter cultures, and bacteriophages were detected using spot assays followed … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 17 Apr 2026 · 1,759 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiocontrol of Escherichia Coli O126:H7 in Skim Milk Using BacteriophagesMona H. Tolba, Arafa M.S. Meshref, Mohamed M.A. ZeinhomEscherichia coli (E. coli) is currently one of the most predominant human food-borne pathogens. In the dairy industry, recently, attention has been drawn to the potential use of bacteriophages (phages) to control bacteria in dairy products. In this study, a cocktail of three Escherichia coli bacteriophages (EcoM-AG2, EcoM-AG3 and EcoM-AG10) was tested to evaluate its ability to control Escherichia coli … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 18 Dec 2014 · 7,831 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMagnum Opus: Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats Biology and Prokaryotic Gene SilencingPrem Saran Tirumalai, Ashim Kumar BagchiGene Silencing was a technology that was established in eukaryotic system a decade ago and is being used as a research tool widely. However, prokaryotic gene silencing was not workable, till recently a team of researchers from the University of Georgia have proved it possible. Where they have shown that short motif sequences determines the targets of the prokaryotic Clustered … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2013 · 7,144 accessesView PDF Cite
