Obligate aerobic chemolithoautotrophic ammonia-oxidzing bacteria (AOB) derive energy and reductant needed for growth solely from the oxidation of ammonia to nitrite thereby facilitating the process of nitritation. A strain of an ammonia-oxidizing ...
Aptamers are single-stranded DNA or RNA molecules forming unique three dimensional structures that can bind to their targets (generally proteins or metabolites or other nucleic acids) with high specificity and affinity. Screening for aptamers requ...
Maternal exposure to topoisomerase II (topoII) inhibitors that are biochemically similar to the chemotherapeutic drug etoposide may promote infant acute leukemia. Several studies have shown that common dietary bioflavonoids as well as benzene meta...
