Thiamine and acid tolerance of Listeria monocytogenes.

Posted by Chantel M. Contributed by US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health

In the study of "Thiamine plays a critical role in the acid tolerance of Listeria monocytogenes" by Madeo M, O'Riordan N, Fuchs TM, Utratna M, Karatzas KA, O'Byrne CP., posted in US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, found that Thiamine-depleted cultures failed to produce significant concentrations of acetoin, consistent with the known thiamine dependence of acetolactate synthase, an enzyme required for acetoin synthesis from pyruvate. As acetoin synthesis is a proton-consuming process, we suggest that the acid sensitivity observed in thiamine-depleted cultures may be owing to an inability to produce acetoin.

  1. Our muscles become deflated with age, losing their moisture like a dry sponge. Acupuncture restores the natural internal irrigation so the 'sponge' is plumped up again and the wrinkles disappear. Treatments include addressing the facial muscles directly because the electro-stimulation of the natural electric charge in the muscle re-establishes the natural flow and the charge/discharge cycle. This enlivens the tissue. Fluids can move through as they did in youth. Kathleen's PEMF instrument quickens the process of rebuilding skin and muscle tissue, while improving the face's senses: vision, hearing, brain power, and also alleviating depression, as confirmed in numerous studies!
