Abstract:
Individual identification of animals from DNA in field-collected faecal samples is becoming an increasingly important tool in wildlife population monitoring. A major issue relevant to the application of this technique is the reliability of the genotypes obtained. I investigated the effect of sample age and season of collection on amplification rates and reliability of microsatellite genotypes amplified from faecal DNA of a marsupial herbivore, the brush-tailed rock-wallaby (Petrogale penicillata) and a eutherian carnivore, the red fox (Vulpes vulpes).

Abstract:
A polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based survey of campylobacters associated with faeces collected from 382 beef cattle was undertaken. To ensure the removal of PCR inhibitors present in faeces and determine if adequate extraction was achieved, faeces were seeded with internal control DNA (i.e., DNA designed to amplify with the Campylobacter genus primer set, but provide a smaller amplicon) before the extraction procedure. In only two samples (0.5%) were the internal control or Campylobacter genus amplicons not detected. In the remaining 380 faecal samples, Campylobacter DNA was detected in 83%

Background As TWIST1 methylation is specific to colorectal neoplasia, detection of TWIST1 methylation from faeces samples might be useful for colorectal neoplasia screening.

Therefore, we developed a new methylation assay without bisulphite treatment, the combined restriction digital PCR assay, and evaluated its sensitivity and specificity in combination with and without the faecal immunochemical test for haemoglobin for color

Abstract:
Information exchange between cellular compartments allows us to engineer systems based around cooperative principles. In this chapter we consider a unique bacterial communication system, the conjugative plasmid transfer of Enterococcus faecalis. Using these bacteria, we describe how to engineer a logically controlled information gate and build a logical inverter based upon it. Cellular computing is an alternative computing paradigm based on living cells. Microscale organisms, especially bacteria, are well suited for computing for several reasons. A small culture provides an almost limitless supply of bacterial “hardware.” Bacteria can be stored and easily modified by gene recombination. In addition, and important for our purposes, bacteria can produce various signal molecules that are useful for computation. DNA-binding proteins recognize specific regulatory regions of DNA, bind them, and regulate their genetic expression. These proteins are available for use as computing signals inside the cell. Weiss et al. have shown, for example, how to construct logic circuits based on gene expression regulated by DNA-binding proteins. Some signal molecules are associated with intercellular communications between individuals. Intercellular communication is one of the fundamental characteristics of multicellular organisms, but it is also found in single-celled microorganisms, including bacteria. Communication mediated by homoserine lactones can widely be seen in various Gram-negative bacteria. The mechanism of this behavior was well characterized in Vibrio fischeri, due to their bioluminescent activity mediated by homoserine lactones. It has been shown that bacterial information transfer can be engineered as an extension of Escherichia coli into which the lux genes of Vibrio fischeri are transformed. The communication abilities of bacteria therefore allow us to build microbial information processors for cellular computing. Communication mechanisms in Gram-positive bacteria are not yet well understood. One of the exceptions to this is the conjugative plasmid transfer system in Enterococcus faecalis. E. faecalis conjugate in response to a pheromone is released by other cells. Pheromones are seven- or eight-residue amino peptides produced in E. faecalis. In the case of cPD1, the pheromone is produced by truncation of a 22-residue precursor that is the signal peptide of a lipoprotein.

Full text
Abstract:
One of the most exciting aspects of studying transitions from foraging to farming is the extraordinary range of evidence available, and the necessary interdisciplinarity of the exercise (Barker and Grant, 1999; Dincauze, 2000). The primary data for whether prehistoric people were living as foragers or farmers (or combining activities, as was often the case) have been collected by archaeologists, from their surveys and excavations. For much of the history of study, subsistence patterns were inferred principally from interpretations of artefacts, settlements, and associated structures. More recently, studies of artefact use have been strengthened by the application of techniques of physical and chemical analyses of food residues attached to them. A vital strand of research has been on the environmental contexts in which early farming took place. Such studies, of sediments, soils, and the microscopic flora and fauna they contain, have contributed reconstructions at a wide variety of scales, from regional climatic and environmental histories of late Pleistocene and Holocene climatic change to the landscapes of single occupation sites—the recognition of signs of animal stalling, for example. From the 1960s onwards, priority has also been given on archaeological excavations to the collection of the organic materials that survive in many conditions such as fragments of animal bone and seeds and other fragments of plants, waste discarded from the consumption of food that is the primary evidence for systems of subsistence. In certain conditions even faeces may survive, telling us about individual meals. Human teeth and bone provide further information about diet. Molecular biology is a new and exciting area of current research, with modern and ancient DNA (aDNA) being used to infer population histories and domestication processes (Jobling et al., 2004; M. Jones, 2001; Renfrew and Boyle, 2000). Further contributions have come from linguistics: studies of present-day languages have been used in support of theories about how farming was spread by new language groups (Bellwood and Renfrew, 2002). The art systems created by foragers and early farmers are yet another source of information, amongst the most intriguing for their potential insights about the beliefs of the people who created them. In short, there is a remarkably broad church of disciplines with contributions to offer, though integrating their findings can be challenging.

Abstract:
Penelitian Plant Growth-Promoting Bacteria (PGPB) banyak dikembangkan untuk menerapkan sistem pertanian yang berkelanjutan. Hasil dari eksplorasi PGPB indigenous di alam seperti UB Forest menambah informasi pengendalian hayati yang ramah lingkungan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui isolat PGPB indigenous yang diisolasi dari serasah kopi UB Forest memiliki pengaruh terhadap pertumbuhan tanaman bawang merah. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada Februari – April 2020 di KabupatenMalang menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) enam perlakuan dan tiga ulangan. Penelitian menggunakan see

Abstract:
The fate of transgenic DNA (tDNA) and protein from feed derived from Genetically Modified organisms (GMOs) in animals has been a major issue since their commercialization in 1996. Several studies have investigated the risks of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of tDNA and protein to bacteria or animal cells/tissues, but some of the reported data are controversial. Previous reports showed that tDNA fragments or proteins derived from GM plants could not be detected in tissues, fluids, or edible products from livestock. Other researchers have shown that there is a possibility of small fragments ente

Introdução: As Infecções Relacionadas à Assistência à Saúde - IRAS - são caracterizadas como infecções relacionadas à internação ou a procedimentos cirúrgicos e que se manifestam durante internações ou após a alta. Elas são responsáveis pelo aumento da morbidade/mortalidade e apresentam grande impacto socioeconômico, nos Estados Unidos, anualmente, os gastos com IRAS chegam a 45 bilhões de dólares. No atual cenário pandêmico do Coronavírus da Síndrome Respiratória Aguda - SARS-CoV-2, responsável pela síndrome respiratória viral mais grave desde a pandemia de influenza H1N1, em 1918, grande par
