Oliveira I, Almeida R, Hofer E, Almeida P
Braz J Microbiol . 2013 Sep; 43(3):1128-36. PMID: 24031937
A protocol for the bacteriophage amplification technique was developed for quantitative detection of viable Listeria monocytogenes cells using the A511 listeriophage with plaque formation as the end-point assay. Laser and...

Bernardez L, de Andrade Lima L, de Jesus E, Ramos C, Almeida P
Bioprocess Biosyst Eng . 2013 May; 36(12):1861-9. PMID: 23636473
The activity of anaerobic sulfate reduction was studied using sulfate-reducing bacteria isolated from the water produced from a Brazilian oil reservoir. The effects of the initial sulfate concentration on the...

Silva I, Almeida R, Alves M, Almeida P
Int J Food Microbiol . 2002 Dec; 81(3):241-8. PMID: 12485750
Critical control points (CCPs) associated with Minas Frescal cheese (a Brazilian soft white cheese, eaten fresh) processing in two dairy factories were determined using flow diagrams and microbiological tests for...

Hinderliter A, Almeida P, Creutz C, Biltonen R
Biochemistry . 2001 Apr; 40(13):4181-91. PMID: 11300799
The role and mechanism of formation of lipid domains in a functional membrane have generally received limited attention. Our approach, based on the hypothesis that thermodynamic coupling between lipid-lipid and...

Pokorny A, Almeida P, Vaz W
Biophys J . 2001 Feb; 80(3):1384-94. PMID: 11222299
The effects of solid-fluid phase separations on the kinetics of association of a single-chain fluorescent amphiphile were investigated in two different systems: pure DMPC (dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine) and a 1:1 mixture of...

Pokorny A, Almeida P, Melo E, Vaz W
Biophys J . 2000 Jan; 78(1):267-80. PMID: 10620291
We examined the consequences of membrane heterogeneity for the association of a simple amphiphilic molecule with phospholipid vesicles with solid-liquid and liquid-liquid phase coexistence. To address this problem we studied...

Almeida P
Biophys J . 1999 Mar; 76(4):1922-8. PMID: 10096890
The problem of the desorption of a lipid molecule from a lipid vesicle (donor) and its incorporation into another vesicle (acceptor) at high acceptor concentrations, which has been investigated experimentally...

Hinderliter A, Almeida P, Biltonen R, Creutz C
Biochim Biophys Acta . 1999 Jan; 1448(2):227-35. PMID: 9920413
We propose a novel role in cellular function for some membrane-binding proteins and, specifically, the C2 motif. The C2 motif binds phospholipid in a manner that is modulated by Ca2+...

Viegas C, Almeida P, Cavaco M, Sa-Correia I
Appl Environ Microbiol . 1998 Feb; 64(2):779-83. PMID: 9464423
Saccharomyces cerevisiae plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase activity was stimulated during octanoic acid-induced latency, reaching maximal values at the early stages of exponential growth. The time-dependent pattern of ATPase activation correlated with...

Jerala R, Almeida P, Biltonen R
Biophys J . 1996 Aug; 71(2):609-15. PMID: 8842200
Phospholipids have been treated as dimers on a hexagonal lattice, and a move has been introduced that allows the dimers to move and change their orientation on the lattice. Simulations...
