To study the relationship between the microbial community structure and the quality of alfalfa silage by adding alfalfa-fermented green juice (aFGJ), the Box–Behnken design was used to optimize the process of preparing aFGJ. High-throughput seq...
Background: Onychomycosis is the most prevalent nail disease, posing a challenge for health professionals in terms of treatment. Conventional topical antifungal treatments can often prove insufficient, and the use of oral antifungal drugs carries a h...
Iron uptake plays an important role in the persistence of Escherichia coli in the host and for its survival in the environment, and it is known that E. coli has a variety of siderophore systems for iron uptake. We investigated the ability to produce...
Cryptococcal infections are distributed worldwide and mainly caused by Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii. The reduced number of antifungals and increasing number of cases of resistance require the search for new therapeutic options, suc...
Objectives: Bacterial infections, mainly due to rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR), are an immense global health threat, complicating treatment, prolonging illness, and increasing mortality. The WHO lists AMR as one of the major threats to human h...
Soil is the most dynamic matrix in the environment and where biogeochemical cycles take place through the activities of microorganisms such as bacteria. A 16S rRNA sequence analysis of seven different soil samples from different geographical location...
The existence of biofilms as heterogeneous structures, comprising bacterial cells embedded in a self-synthesized polymeric matrix and adhered to biotic and abiotic surfaces, exhibiting high antibiotic tolerance, is a fact that, in recent years, has e...
Background: Healthcare facilities worldwide are struggling to combat the increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs). MDROs pose a serious threat to patient safety, resulting in longer hospital stays, higher healthcare expenses, an...
Pouchitis is one of the most common long-term complications after ileal pouch–anal anastomosis (IPAA) surgery, with a reported incidence rate of up to 50%. Identifying specific bacteria involved in the pathogenesis has important implications fo...
The genus Leptospira includes at least 69 Gram-negative, aerobic spirochetes, of which 25 are pathogenic and associated with a diverse range of mammals, including members of the order Chiroptera. On the American continent, there are six confirmed Lep...
