RARE PLASMID-MEDIATED AMPC BETA-LACTAMASE DHA-1 LOCATED ON EASY MOBILIZED IS26-RELATED GENETIC ELEMENT DETECTED IN ESCHERICHIA COLI FROM LIVESTOCK AND FOOD IN GERMANY

Rare Plasmid-Mediated AmpC Beta-Lactamase DHA-1 Located on Easy Mobilized IS26-Related Genetic Element Detected in Escherichia coli from Livestock and Food in Germany

AmpC beta-lactamases cause resistance to third-generation cephalosporins, including beta-lactamase inhibitors.In Escherichia coli from the German food production chain, the majority of AmpC beta-lactamase activity can be attributed to plasmid-mediated CMY-2 or overproduction of chromosomal AmpC beta-lactamase, but occasionally other enzymes like DH

Green tea catechins of food supplements facilitate pepsin digestion of major food allergens, but hampers their digestion if oxidized by phenol oxidase

The in vitro gastric digestion of several food allergens (beta-lactoglobulin (BLG), alpha-lactalbumin (LA) and peanut allergens (PE)) in the presence of a catechin-enriched polyphenol extract of green tea (GTC), oxidized polyphenols and phenol oxidase processed food allergens and GTC was investigated.Pepsin-resistant proteins, such as BLG, major pe
