Abstract Dormancy, as a microbial survival strategy, plays a crucial role in sustaining microbial diversity. However, the large-scale distribution patterns of microbial dormancy and drivers remain poorly understood. Here...

Abstract Background Blanket bogs are rare ombrotrophic peatlands that function as important long-term carbon stores. Their persistence depends on strong nutrient limitation, which maintains Sphagnum dominance and suppres...

ABSTRACT Proper maintenance of the cold chain is essential to ensure both food quality and safety. This laboratory activity was designed to help undergraduate students understand the microbiological implications of cold ...

Abstract Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has emerged as a novel approach for understanding anorexia nervosa (AN), a complex eating disorder characterized by severe underweight, fear of weight gain and distorted bo...

Tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA), a widely used chemical on material modification and flame retardant synthesis, bioaccumulates through the food chain and presents significant health concerns. However, the long-term effect...

Nanoparticles have gained immense interest as probable drug molecules against microbial infections. Metal nanoparticles synthesized via exploring the reduction potential and capping activity of plants were found to have ...

Diet and the gut microbiome are major, interdependent determinants of colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. This review discusses current evidence on how dietary patterns reshape microbial ecology, modulate microbial virulence, ...

Abstract Alcoholic Heart Disease (AHD) involves gut microbiota dysbiosis, metabolic disturbances, and circadian disruption, yet their interconnections remain unclear. Using a murine AHD model, we integrated echocardiogra...

Objective: We aimed to characterise the liver tissue bacterial metataxonomic signature in two independent cohorts of patients with biopsy-proven non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) diagnosis, as differences in the ...

Abstract The consumption of meat has been increasing, leading to a dynamic meat and meat processing industry. To maintain the quality and safety of meat products, various technologies have been explored, including intens...

The pandemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS2) affected the geriatric population. Among research models, Golden Syrian hamsters (GSH) are one of the most representative to study SARS2 pathogenesi...

IntroductionMetabolism-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) has emerged as a severe worldwide public health burden with insufficient available clinical therapeutic strategies, which underscores the urgent demand for sa...

Abstract Background Understanding how the respiratory microbiota matures with age is key to improving poultry health and pathogen surveillance, yet the ecological processes shaping this transition remain elusive. We aime...

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effects of dietary lipid content (20, 40 and 60 g/kg dry matter) on intake, total and ruminal apparent digestibility of dry matter (DM), nutrient digestibility, rume...

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of agricultural intensification on soil microbial diversity, chemical and physical parameters, and the decrease of the incidence of sudden death syndrome (Fusarium c...

Abstract Background After resection surgery, recurrence occurs in more than 30% of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Previous studies have highlighted the role of the gut microbiota in CRC initiation and progression; how...

This work aimed to optimize a nonthermal (NT) ultrasound-assisted aqueous extraction (aq-UAE) to maximize the recovery of polyphenols, betaxanthins, and betacyanins. Extraction yields, thermal profiles and microbiologica...

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to determine the optimal level of dried brewers' grains (DBG) to replace soybean meal in diets for lactating Holstein cows. Five cows, around 88±28 days in milk, were distributed...

Mediante el método de dilución en tubo se ensayó la posible actividad antimicrobiana del ácido epiforélico 1 (difenil-éter de origen liquénico) en bacterias Gram-positivas y hongos. La sustancia probada frente a S...

O interesse na aplicação de sistemas nanoestrurados como veículo de preparações farmacêuticas se deve a capacidade destes de solubilizar substâncias hidrofílicas e lipofílicas. Com isto, têm sido utilizados vis...

Studies of the human microbiome have revealed that even healthy individuals differ remarkably in the microbes that occupy habitats such as the gut, skin and vagina. Much of this diversity remains unexplained, although di...
