TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the antioxidant activities of both cells and extracel- lular substances in 12 soil-isolated strains of microalgae according to FRAP and DPPH-HPLC assays Their total phenolic contents were also determined by Folin-Ciocalteu method Extractions were performed with hexane, ethyl acetate, and water
Abstract: Antioxidant activities of both cells and extracel- lular substances were evaluated in 12 soil-isolated strains of microalgae according to FRAP and DPPH-HPLC assays Their total phenolic contents were also determined by Folin-Ciocalteu method Extractions were performed with hexane, ethyl acetate, and water The results of FRAP assay showed that algal cells contained considerable amounts of antioxidants from 056±006 to 3106± 400 µmol Trolox g �1 for Microchaete tenera hexane extract and Chlorella vulgaris water extract, respectively In water

TL;DR: This method is a simple, rapid, and cost-effective method for differentiation between species that is applicable in clinical laboratories and successfully identified 137 clinical isolates of Candida.
Abstract: Early identification of Candida isolates to the species level is necessary for effective antifungal therapy, and can also facilitate control of hospital infections. Phenotype-based methods for identifying Candida species are often difficult and time-consuming. Molecular biological techniques provide a useful alternative approach. In the present study, the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 regions of fungal rRNA genes were amplified with universal primers in 20 standard strains. Digestion of the PCR products with one restriction enzyme, MspI, allowed discrimination of medically important Candida species, including C. albicans, C. glabrata, C. parapsilosis, C. tropicalis, C. krusei, and C. guilliermondii. Using this method, we successfully identified 137 clinical isolates of Candida. Among them, C. albicans was identified as the most common species, followed by C. parapsilosis, C. tropicalis, C. glabrata, C. krusei, and C. guilliermondii. This method is a simple, rapid, and cost-effective method for differentiation between species that is applicable in clinical laboratories.
