In this study we aimed to determine seroprevalence of antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii and parasite DNA presence in the milk of goats from a farm in eastern Slovakia. Anti-Toxoplasma antibodies were detected in 43 goat sera out of 87 examined (49.43%). The highest prevalence was recorded in the goats aged more than 72 months (76.19%; OR = 4.62; 95% CI = 1.51-14.14) and the lowest one in animals...
Glucoamylase is an extracellular enzyme produced mainly by microorganisms. It belongs to the commercially frequently exploited biocatalysts. The major application of glucoamylase is in the starch bioprocessing to produce glucose and in alcoholic fermentations of starchy materials. Filamentous fungi have been the source of glucoamylases for industrial purposes as well as an object of numerous research...
Chlorophyll-a (chl-a) and carotenoid pigments of the zooxanthellate octocoral Sinularia flexibilis were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography following exposure to three light intensities for over 30 days. From the coral fragments located at different light intensities, a total carotenoid of >41 μg g−1 dry weight, including peridinin, xanthophylls (likely diadinoxanthin + diatoxanthin),...
Studies were carried out in eight woodland water bodies that are situated in an urbanised area of Southern Poland (Upper Silesia). The aim of this study was to determine the influence of auto- and allochthonous plant detritus and exposure to sunlight on the structure of snail communities in woodland ponds. Among some physico-chemical water parameters, pH influenced the occurrence of snails, whereas...
The effect of light quality on the photosynthetic pigments as chromatic adaptation in 8 species of lichens were examined. The chlorophylls, carotenoids in 5 species with green algae as phycobionts (Cladonia mitis, Hypogymnia physodes, H. tubulosa var. tubulosa and subtilis, Flavoparmelia caperata, Xanthoria parietina) and the chlorophyll a, carotenoids and phycobiliprotein pigments in 3 species with...
The epifaunal assemblage was evaluated at three different depths (5, 15 and 25 m) in the inshore waters of Pazhayar, Parangipettai and Cuddalore apart from 5 m depth near SIPCOT covering totally 10 stations (11°21′ N to 11°42′ N; 79°46′49″ E to 79°52′34″ E) in the southeast coast of India, Bay of Bengal. The occurrence of as many as 112 species belonging to 6 groups was recorded. Among these, gastropods...
The putative biological effects of the toxic organic pollutants polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and the dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (DLPCBs) in the sediments of Masan Bay, Korea, on the gonad of Limanda yokohamae were investigated using proteomic and bioinformatic analyses. The results demonstrated that 11 protein spots from the bay site, Duckdong, were statistically...
