The Application of Curve Fitting on the Voltammograms of Various Isoforms of Metallothioneins–Metal Complexes
(MDPI, 2017-03-01)
The translation of metallothioneins (MTs) is one of the defense strategies by which organisms protect themselves from metal-induced toxicity. MTs belong to a family of proteins comprising MT-1, MT-2, MT-3, and MT-4 classes, ...
Assessment of Antioxidants in Selected Plant Rootstocks
(MDPI, 2020-03-25)
The service tree (Sorbus domestica) is a wild fruit tree with immense medicinal and industrial value. This study aimed at determining the four major groups of antioxidants (flavonoids, phenolic acids and aldehydes, catechin ...
Study of Linkage between Glutathione Pathway and the Antibiotic Resistance of Escherichia coli from Patients’ Swabs
(MDPI, 2015-05-31)
V této práci jsme se zaměřili na rozdíly mezi bakteriálních kultur E. coli, získaných ze stěrů infekčních ran pacientů ve srovnání s laboratorním E. coli. Navíc blokování proteinu odpovědné za syntézu glutathion ...
Zinc phosphate-based nanoparticles as alternatives to zinc oxide in diet of weaned piglets
(BioMed Central, 2020-06-09)
Background The high doses of zinc oxide (ZnO) administered orally to piglets for the prevention of diarrhea and increase of growth rate can contaminate pig farms and the surrounding environment. Therefore, there is a need ...
CdSe QD biosynthesis in yeast using tryptone-enriched media and their conjugation with a peptide hecate for bacterial detection and killing
(MDPI, 2019-10-31)
The physical and chemical synthesis methods of quantum dots (QDs) are generally unfavorable for biological applications. To overcome this limitation, the development of a novel "green" route to produce highly-fluorescent ...
The effect of different fatty acid sources on wound healing in rats assessed by matrix-assisted-laser-desorption-ionization mass-spectroscopy-imaging
(University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical Sciences in Brno, 2019-12-01)
The objective of the present study was to compare the effects of dietary oils containing polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) n-3 and n-6, respectively, on cutaneous wound healing in rats, and to demonstrate the usefulness ...
Lead Ions Encapsulated in Liposomes and Their Effect on Staphylococcus aureus
(MDPI, 2013-12-01)
The aim of the study was the preparation of a liposome complex with encapsulated lead ions, which were electrochemically detected. In particular, experiments were focused on the potential of using an electrochemical method ...
Preparation of cryosections from frozen porcine pulmonary tissue for MALDI mass spectrometry imaging
(Mendel University in Brno, 2019-01-02)
In last decades, a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging
(MALDI MSI) was used for mapping the spatial distribution of different molecules, mainly peptides,
proteins, lipids and metabolites, ...
Isolation of Arginine Using Maghemite Particles
(TANGER, 2019-02-01)
In this paper, we report the optimal conditions for the isolation of amino acid arginine from different types of matrix, such as blood, plasma or tissue and their characterization using ion-exchange liquid chromatography ...
Nanoparticles Suitable for BCAA Isolation Can Serve for Use in Magnetic Lipoplex-Based Delivery System for L, I, V, or R-rich Antimicrobial Peptides
(MDPI, 2016-04-01)
This paper investigates the synthesis of paramagnetic nanoparticles, which are able to bind branched chain amino acids (BCAAs)—leucine, valine, and isoleucine and, thus, serve as a tool for their isolation. Further, by ...
