Abstract:
Preclinical models for studying the effects of the human biofield have great potential to advance our understanding of human biofield modalities, which include external qigong, Johrei, Reiki, therapeutic touch, healing touch, polarity therapy, pranic healing, and other practices. A short history of Western biofield studies using preclinical models is presented and demonstrates numerous and consistent examples of human biofields significantly affecting biological systems both in vitro and in vivo. Methodological issues arising from these studies and practical solutions in experimental design ar

Abstract:
Studies have demonstrated that purported biofield therapy emitted from humans can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and suppress tumor growth in various cancers. We explored the effects of biofield therapy on tumor growth in the Lewis lung carcinoma and expanded mechanistic outcomes. We found biofield therapy did not inhibit tumor growth. However, the experimental (Ex) condition exposed tumors had a significantly higher percentage of necrosis (24.4 ± 6.8%) compared with that of the Control condition (6.5 ± 2.7%; P < .02) and cleaved caspase-3 positive cells were almost 2.3-fold high

Biofield therapies have gained popularity and are being explored as possible treatments for cancer. In some cases, devices have been developed that mimic the electromagnetic fields that are emitted from people delivering biofield therapies. However, there is limited research examining if humans could potentially inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and suppress tumor growth through modification of inflammation and the immune system.

Abstract Biofilms are the predominant antagonists when it comes to microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). The removal of this biofilm community is crucial to mitigating the risk of corrosion failures due to MIC. Despite this, there are few current techniques that can accurately address whether a biocide treatment is effectively removing the biofilm, simply lowering its metabolic activity, or killing the cells, thereby leaving the infrastructure intact for new microbes to more easily attach to surfaces.

Abstract:
Abstract Nitrate has been added to the injection seawater in the Halfdan field since January 2001 in order to prevent reservoir souring. The Halfdan water injection pipeline contains a significant biofilm, made up of nitrate utilizing bacteria (NUB) and a small, but persistent population of sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB). In this paper, we demonstrate that various chemical microsensors can be used for assessing the souring potential and corrosivity of the biofilm formed in the Halfdan seawater injection system treated with nitrate. The results obtained were compared with a similar microsensor

Abstract:
Abstract The response of attached bacteria on internal surfaces of steel pipes to various biocide treatments was assessed using a custom designed field test facility equipped with five separate flow lines. Successful biocide formulations induced a rapid decrease in viable bacterial counts; however, survivors often persisted after prolonged treatment in low level steady state biofilm populations (approximately 104 cells per cm2). Direct epifluoresence counts of total biofilm populations (viable and non-viable cells) showed no change before and after biocide treatment. This suggests the biocides

Abstract:
Abstract Oil-and gas- pipelines and processing equipment are usually attacked by different microorganisms that can result with time in damage of the equipment leading to serious technological incidences and environmental contamination. The direction and speed of the processes responsible for bio-damages and bio-corrosion are determined by vital activity of microorganisms. Namely bio-films presenting complex associations of the microorganisms and their metabolites are among the main reasons providing such incidences. From other side, bio-films can be protective agents against corrosion as well.

Abstract:
Abstract The formation of biofilms and resulting microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is a significant contributor to corrosion in a wide range of industries, particularly the oil and gas industry. It is well understood that microbial communities, particularly SRB communities, present in biofilms are key contributors to MIC events. In order to combat MIC, both corrosion inhibitors and biocides are used to mitigate microorganism growth, thereby assisting in corrosion prevention. However, extended prevention and efficacy remains a significant challenge. A series of biocides were tested a

Abstract:
Abstract Sulfate reducing bacterial (SRB) influenced corrosion of carbon steel has been studied to determine the role of corrosion product/biofilm interactions on the electrochemical behavior of the metal. The influence of sulfides, chloride and ferrous ions on the electrochemistry processes has been assessed by using various electrochemical techniques. Corrosion products were analyzed by energy dispersion X-ray analysis (EDAX), X ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electron probe microanalysis (EPM). Microscopic observations of the metal surface were made by usin

Abstract:
Electroactive biofilms provide environments conducive to the occurrence of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) in several industrial sectors. There are many distinct MIC mechanisms associated with different microbial groups and metabolism types. Most published research studies on MIC focus on bacteria, where sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) have the largest impact on corrosion because sulfate is widely distributed in anoxic environments, such as offshore oil reservoirs. This study investigated the role of an oilfield SRB-consortium in the AISI 1020 carbon steel corrosion immersed in hy

Abstract:
For meat and meat products, secondary processes are those that relate to the downstream of the primary chilling of carcasses. Secondary processes include maturation chilling, deboning, portioning, mincing and other operations such as thermal processing (cooking) that create fresh meat, meat preparations and ready-to-eat meat products. This review systematically identified and summarised information relating to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) during the manufacture of secondary processed meatand meat products (SPMMP).

Abstract:
Control of agro-associated pathogens is becoming increasingly difficult due to increased resistance and mounting restrictions on chemical pesticides and antibiotics. Likewise, in veterinary and human environments, there is increasing resistance of pathogens to currently available antibiotics requiring discovery of novel antibiotic compounds. These drawbacks necessitate discovery and application of microorganisms that can be used as biocontrol agents (BCAs) and the isolation of novel biologically-active compounds. This highly-synergistic one year project implemented an innovative pipeline aimed
