Monocyte-derived macrophages and dermal fibroblasts-derived ECM making small talk
Chaves, S.; Macedo, J.; Reis, Daniel Pedro Pires Alves; Silva, Lucília Pereira; Marques, A. P.[Excerpt] Introduction: 3D in vitro skin models allow studying molecular pathways that otherwise are only possible to explore using animal models. The incorporation of immune cells, such as macrophages, has been implemented to create immunocompetent analogues. Yet, the human biology representation in those models is limited, among other aspects, by the minimal extracellular matrix (ECM) mimicry[1]. In order to ...
Tracking relations among bacterial and protozoan communities in wastewater trea...
Neto, Marta Martins; Chaves, S.; Nicolau, AnaBackground: Understanding the interactions between prokaryotic and eukaryotic populations in complex environments can be challenging. Particularly, there is a recognized difficulty in establishing how the interactions between the bacterial and the protozoan populations can affect the performance of wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). Objectives: In order to determine the relationships between microbial communit...
Anaerobic digestion process for biogas and biomolecules production: microflora ...
Eusebio, Ana; Chaves, S.; Tenreiro, R.; Almeida-Vara, Elsa; Morana, A.; Ionata, E.; La Cara, F.; Marques, Isabel PaulaThe anaerobic process was efficient in organic matter removal. During the process, an interesting compound as quercetin was produced inside of reactor. Phylogenetic analysis showed the presence of phylotypes affiliated with gamma-Proteobacteria, Choroflexi, and Bacteroidetes. Archaea were represented by phylotypes belonging to the genus Methanosarcina and Methanosaeta.
Portuguese olive oil wastewaters: looking for a unifying model
Baeta-Hall, L.; Eusébio, A.; Ribeiro, B.; Nogueira, Marta Catarina Martins Ramos Gonçalves; Chaves, S.; Sàágua, M. C.; Duarte, L. C.; Tenreiro, R.This presentation will review the microbiological and physicochemical characteristics of Portuguese olive oil wastewaters (OOWW) based on data collected over the last 12 years (Eusébio 2011, Eusébio 2007, Eusébio 2005). These OOWW were all originated from the continuous oil extraction process (three-phase system) at diverse mills spread all over Portugal (Alfândega da Fé, Oliveira do Hospital, Santarém, Rio Mai...
