Two species of the Paramecium urelia complex (Ciliophora,
Protista) from the Black Sea region (Russia) with their RAPD-PCR fingerprints characteristics.
NETs have been shown to aid in the entrapment and killing of Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, fungi, parasites, and
protista.[sup][10],[21],[22],[29] They are also formed during viral infections,[sup][30] likely providing a protective role in the infected host.
Phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid (EDTA), 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH), 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB), 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC), Girard's reagent T, amyloglucosidase (#10115), trehalase (#T8778), peptone, and yeast extract were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich Corporation (USA); N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (TEMED) and quercetin were from Reanal (Hungary); disodium salt of alpha-ketoglutaric acid (99% purity) was from
Protista AB (Sweden); all reagents for determination of glucose and triacylglycerides (TAG), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activities were from PZ Cormay S.A.
Benthic Foraminifera are
Protista with the size between 100 and 1000 mm, usually known as bottom dwellers, which inhabit beneath the sea floor [22].
"New organic-walled Foramnifera (
Protista) from the ocean's deepest point, the Challenger Deep (western Pacific Ocean)".
Amebas testaceas (
Protista, Sarcomastigophora, Rhizopoda) em Sphagnum recurvo P.Beauev e Sphagnum perichartiale Hampe (turfeira), no municipio de Sao Francisco de Paula, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil.
Old textbooks had drawn a eukaryote treetop that branched into three kingdoms of mostly multicellular organisms (plants, animals and fungi) and one hodgepodge kingdom of single-celled beasts called
Protista. Beginning in the late 1980s, though, new genetic studies relegated the multicelled kingdoms to mere side branches on five to seven much bigger branches of mostly single-celled protists.
Uni-cellular organisms of the kingdom
protista, characterized by a silica shell of often intricate and beautiful sculpturing.
The world of bacteria, micro-sized fungi, archaea,
protista (plant-like algae and animal-like protozoa), viruses (which may not technically qualify as life forms) and symbiont combinations is huge, important, and missing.
An ovarian parasite (
Protista incertae sedis) from the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas.
Some classical aquaporins (AQP1, -6) and Glps from
Protista to Mammalia also evolved this function.
