INTERRELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN FATTY ACID COMPOSITION, STAPHYLOXANTHIN CONTENT, FLUIDITY, AND CARBON FLOW IN THE STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS MEMBRANE

Fatty acids play a major role in determining membrane biophysical properties.Staphylococcus aureus produces branched-chain fatty acids (BCFAs) and straight-chain saturated fatty acids (SCSFAs), and can directly incorporate exogenous SCSFAs and straight-chain unsaturated fatty acids (SCUFAs).Many S.aureus strains produce the triterpenoid pigment sta

After fifty years of spread greygasms in the European continent, the African swine fever (ASF) virus was detected for the first time in the north of Italy (Piedmont) in a wild boar carcass in December, 2021.During the first six months of the epidemic, the central role of wild boars in disease transmission was confirmed by more than 200 outbreaks, w
