Previous studies have shown that the Ancient Egyptians used malted wheat and barley as the main ingredients in beer brewing, but the chemical determination of the exact recipe is still lacking. To investigate the constituents of ancient beer, we conducted a detailed IR and GC-MS based metabolite ana...

To elucidate any observable metabolic alterations during interactions of several strains of Pseudomonas putida (DOT-T1E, and its mutants DOT-T1E-PS28 and DOT-T1E-18) with the aromatic hydrocarbon toluene, metabolomic approaches were employed. Initially, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscop...

Snakes possess a unique sensory system for detecting infrared radiation, enabling them to generate a ‘thermal image’ of predators or prey. Infrared signals are initially received by the pit organ, a highly specialized facial structure that is innervated by nerve fibers of the somatosensory system. H...

Far-infrared rays activated DNA repair genes in human prostate cancer cells, PC-3, after 12days' exposure to far-infrared rays. As a far-infrared rays emitter, synthetic/natural rubber (RB) was used. Keywords: comparative genomic hybridization Two-condition experiment,RB-treated vs.non-RB-treated...

Vampire bats and snakes have taken thermosensation to the extreme by developing specialized systems for detecting infrared radiation. As such, these creatures provide a window into the molecular and genetic mechanisms underlying evolutionary tuning of thermoreceptors in a species or cell type specif...

Deep-sea hydrothermal vents emit intense infrared (IR) radiation that profoundly shapes microbial ecology and promotes bacterial growth. To investigate the mechanisms underlying IR responsiveness, we isolated Rhodotorula mucilaginosa strain F-J1, a deep-sea yeast. We found that both elevated tempera...

The health state of an individual is closely linked to the glycosylation patterns of their blood plasma proteins. However, obtaining this information requires cost- and time-efficient analytical methods. We put forward infrared spectroscopy, which allows label-free analysis of protein glycosylation,...

It was recently shown that ultrashort pulse infrared (IR) lasers, operating at the wavelength of the OH vibration stretching band of water, are highly efficient at softly sampling and homogenizing biological tissue. We utilized a nanosecond infrared laser (NIRL) for tissue sampling and homogenizatio...

We introduce anticancer effect of the far-infrared rays. The growth of three human prostate cancer cells (DU145, PC-3 and LNCaP) was suppressed in vitro only by far-infrared rays. The far-infrared rays induced the gene activation involved in apoptosis that exert positive effects on cancer control. S...
