Patomechanizm zakażeń dróg moczowych wywoływanych przez uropatogenne szczepy E. coli
PublikacjaZakażenia układu moczowego (ZUM) to jedne z najczęstszych i najbardziej powszechnych infekcji bakteryjnych, dotykających każdego roku nawet 150 milionów ludzi na świecie. Problem z tego typu infekcjami wynika z przewlekłości choroby, nawrotów i wzrastającej lekooporności powodujących je patogenów. Uropatogenne szczepy E. coli (UPEC) są głównym czynnikiem przyczynowym ZUM. Bakterie tej grupy zawierają wiele czynników adhezyjnych...

237Np Mössbauer effect study on NpFeAsO
PublikacjaWe report 237Np Mössbauer measurements on NpFeAsO. The Np atoms were found to occupy only one crystallographic site. The value of the isomer shift (δ ∼ 9.1 mm s−1 versus NpAl2) indicates a 5f4 electronic configuration (Np3+ ions). The magnetic ordering of the Np sublattice below 60 K is established and the saturated ordered magnetic moment is determined to be 1.73μB at 3.6 K. The unique set of hyperfine parameters exclude a modulated...

Site-selective magnetic order of neptunium inNp2Ni17
PublikacjaWe present the results obtained by superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometry, specific heat, and Mossbauer spectroscopy measurements carried out on Np2Ni17 polycrystalline samples. We show that long-range magnetic order, with a moment mu((2b)) similar to 2.25 mu(B), occurs below T-N = 17.5 K on the Np (2b) sites. A nontrivial situation is observed in that the other Np sites (2d) do not take part to the order...

Expression of goose parvovirus whole VP3 protein and its epitopes in Escherichia coli cells
PublikacjaThe aim of this study was the expression of goose parvovirus capsid protein (VP3) and its epitopes in Escherichia coli cells. Expression of the whole VP3 protein provided an insufficient amount of protein. In contrast, the expression of two VP3 epitopes (VP3ep4, VP3ep6) in E. coli, resulted in very high expression levels. This may suggest that smaller parts of the GPV antigenic determinants are more efficiently expressed than the...
