Contribution of Phosphorylation Modification to Stability and Antibacterial Activity of Egg White Protein Nanogels Loaded with Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil by Sheng-Qi Rao, Xin-Ru Gao, Hui Liu, Zhi-Rong Wang, Zhen-Quan Yang

“…In addition, the results of the antibacterial experiments on <i>Escherichia coli</i>, <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>, and <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> showed that the MIC values of P-EWP-CBEO nanogels were two times lower than those of EWP-CBEO nanogels and could completely inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria within 108 h. Hence, we have suggested that P-EWP-CBEO nanogels are successfully fabricated with improved physicochemical properties as novel potential natural preservatives in the food industry.…”

Myoclonic status epilepticus with dystonia-like symptoms in patients with dementia: Report of two cases by Rosario V. Rossi, Rosanna Melis, Noemi Murdeu, Sara Lizzos, Maria Luigia Piras, Loretta Racis, Silvia Serusi, Maria Valeria Saddi

“…A time-locked relationship between the frontocentral EEG activity and the EMG myoclonic potentials demonstrated the cortical origin of myoclonus and therefore the epileptic nature of the disorder, whereas the oromandibular and cervical dystonic-like postures suggested the pathogenic involvement of subcortical structures. The intravenous administration of diazepam suppressed the clinical symptoms and the EEG–EMG correlate of myoclonus. …”
