ENZYME IN SALIVA SHAPES HOW WE SENSE FOOD TEXTURE

Individuals who have more salivary amylase may break starchy foods down more quickly, leading to a more rapid increase of post-meal blood g ...

PCR analysis revealed the presence of resistance gene aacA4, which encoded aminoglycoside 6'-N-acetyltransferase (AAC(6’)-Ib C), in seven out of 12 (58.3%) multidrug resistant strains of P. aeruginosa (Figure 1). In our study, all examined strains of P. aeruginosa were resistant to aminoglycoside an ...
