Clinics in dermatology, 27(5), 495-501 (2009-08-22)
The hydroxyacids are represented by the alpha-hydroxyacids, beta-hydroxyacids, polyhydroxy acids, and bionic acids. Together, these ingredients form a class of compounds with unparalleled benefits to the skin and unprecedented usage in the cosmeceutical market in cosmetic and therapeutic formulations alike.

Free radical biology & medicine, 19(5), 699-704 (1995-11-01)
Superoxide and hydroxyl free radicals are strongly implicated in the deleterious effects of reperfusion of grafted organs. Iron ions are critical in the Fenton-like reaction that generates oxygen-free radicals from H2O2. Using the ADP/Fe2+/H2O2 .OH-generating system, we demonstrated that components

Bioresource technology, 109, 140-147 (2012-02-09)
The influence of dissolved oxygen availability on cell growth and lactobionic acid production from whey by Pseudomonas taetrolens has been investigated for the first time. Results from pH-shift bioreactor cultivations have shown that high agitation rate schemes stimulated cell growth
Saúl Alonso et al.
Applied microbiology and biotechnology, 96(6), 1465-1477 (2012-07-11)
Physiological heterogeneity constitutes a critical parameter in biotechnological systems since both metabolite yield and productivity are often hampered by the presence of undesired physiological cell subpopulations. In the present study, the physiological status and functionality of Pseudomonas taetrolens cells were
