A European biobanking strategy for safeguarding macroalgal genetic material to ...
Hofmann, Laurie C.; Brakel, Janina; Bartsch, Inka; Arismendi, Gabriel Montecinos; Bermejo, Ricardo; Parente, Manuela I.; Creis, EmelineBiobanking (also known as germplasm banking) of genetic material is a well-established concept for preserving plant genetic diversity and also contributes to food security, conservation and restoration. Macroalgae currently represent a very small percentage of the strains in publicly accessible European germplasm banks, despite the increasing recognition of their contribution to achieving several of the United ...
Inhibition of Bacterial and Fungal Biofilm Formation by 675 Extracts from Micro...
Cepas, Virginio; López, Yuly; Gabasa, Yaiza; Martins, Clara B.; Ferreira, Joana D.; Correia, Maria J.; Santos, Lília M. A.; Oliveira, FlávioBacterial biofilms are complex biological systems that are difficult to eradicate at a medical, industrial, or environmental level. Biofilms confer bacteria protection against external factors and antimicrobial treatments. Taking into account that about 80% of human infections are caused by bacterial biofilms, the eradication of these structures is a great priority. Biofilms are resistant to old-generation anti...
