LR reactions were carried out with C-terminal GFP fusion vectors for GFP localization (Carrie et al., 2009), pDEST14 for in vitro transcription and translation, and pB2GW7 (35S CaMV promoter) for Agrobacterium tumefaciensmediated complementation (Karimi et al., 2002).

This audit aimed to look retrospectively at our admissions to Intensive Care, to categorise them into frail or non frail, and evaluate how frailty correlated with ICU length of stay and mortality Methods: A retrospective case note review of all patients admitted to Intensive Care over a six month period in the Victoria Infirmary and then Queen Elizabeth University hospital in Glasgo

Ons trigger an activation of the contact system more potently than strains isolated from noninvasive infections. The present study gives new insights into the mechanisms by which S. pyogenes triggers the human contact system and stresses the function of soluble and surface located plasmin exploited as a group A streptococcal virulence factor through the action of streptokinase. treptococcus pyogen

S where phenotyped on MS medium containing 0 and 3 (w/v) Suc and soil (peat/perlite/vermiculite) according to the parameters described previously (Boyes et al., 2001). Seeds were sterilized with chlorine gas and sown on MS medium containing 3 (w/v) Suc followed by 48 h of stratification at 4 . Plants were grown for 2 weeks at 22 with a light intensity of 80 mmol quanta m22 s21 in a 16-h photop

Streptococcal plasminogen activator, triggers the activation of the human contact system. Activation of contact system factors at the surface of the Streptococcus pyogenes serotype M49 is dependent on streptokinase and plasminogen. Our results also show that secreted streptokinase is an efficient contact system activator, independent from a contact surface. This results in the processing of high-m

The small or large intestine is indicative of pneumatosis intestinalis. This situation refers to a necrotizing enterocolitis and can be considered as an indication for urgent surgery. Conservative management is recommended initially when these criteria are absent [50]. Badgwell et al. suggested better outcomes if it was possible to delay surgery until recovery from neutropenia [51]. General suppor
