ENTEROCOCCUS FAECALIS EFAA IN THERAPY-RESISTANT ENDONTIC INFECTIONS
Enterococcus faecalis implicated in persistent root canal infections has also been associated with infective endocarditis arising from certain invasive dental procedures. The aim of this study was to detect the presence of putative E. faecalis virulence factor, endocarditis antigen efaA in root canals of therapy-resistant endodontic infections using molecular technology.

EFECTO DEL TRATAMIENTO DE ALTA PRESIÓN Y TÉRMICO EN EL AROMA DE LA LECHE MATERNA
La aplicación de presiones hidrostáticas altas supone una alternativa al tratamiento térmico de pasteurización aplicado en los bancos de leche. Sin embargo, no todos los tratamientos suponen una ventaja respecto del tratamiento térmico. Es necesario estudiar más en profundidad la efectividad de estos tratamientos a nivel microbiológico.
