PLASMA METABOLOMICS STUDY REVEALS THE CRITICAL METABOLIC SIGNATURES FOR BENZENE-INDUCED HEMATOTOXICITY



Sources of error in the isotopic cholesterol balance method in African green monkeys consuming a cholesterol-free diet

Six African green monkeys were labeled intravenously with [1,2-(3)H]cholesterol while consuming a cholesterol-free liquid formula diet.The plasma cholesterol specific activity was compared with the specific activity of the biliary cholesterol and bile acids and with the fecal neutral steroids in order to determine whether the traditional isotopic b

Phenotypic and Genomic Comparison of the Two Most Common ExoU-Positive Pseudomonas aeruginosa Clones, PA14 and ST235

ABSTRACT Genotyping of 2,882 Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates that had been collected during the last 40 years identified the ExoU-positive lineages PA14 (ST253) and ST235 as the second and third most frequent clones in the P.aeruginosa population.Both clones were approximately 2-fold more frequently detected in animate habitats than in soil or aqua
