Coastal environments have been recognized as key reservoirs for antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The present study evaluated marine gastropods, Phorcus lineatus, as potential bioindicators to assess the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. P. linea...

Influenza A virus (IAV) poses significant public health challenges due to its rapid mutation and drug resistance, necessitating novel antiviral strategies. Rhododendron brachycarpum, traditionally employed in folk medicine to treat inflammatory condi...

Antibiotics are frequently used in the poultry industry, which has led to the emergence of bacterial strains that are resistant to antimicrobial treatments. The main objectives of this research were to conduct a multimodal risk assessment, to determi...

The cacao trade and export industry has been impacted by cadmium (Cd2+) accumulation in soils, as the metal is absorbed by plants and transferred to the tissues. Consequently, cacao beans and their derivatives can become contaminated, sometimes excee...

Background/Objectives: Antibiotic-resistant bacteria pose a global health threat, driving the need for alternative treatments. Medicinal plants such as Clerodendrum glabrum and Gardenia volkensii are promising sources of bioactive compounds. This stu...

Honey is a sugar-rich product produced by Apis mellifera bees, with significant variability in properties due to the influence of geographic and climatic conditions and the predominant flora in the production region. Economically, beekeeping is an ac...

In the search for new alternatives for controlling parasitic agents, proteases from Beauveria bassiana stand out. The aim of this study was to evaluate in silico and in vitro the ovicidal potential of B. bassiana proteases on Eurytrema pancreaticum J...

Community-acquired infections caused by Enterobacterales are a growing public health concern, particularly in border regions where patient mobility may influence resistance patterns. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance is critical for establi...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the causative agent of COVID-19. The development of antiviral drugs for COVID-19 has been hampered by the requirement of a biosafety level 3 (BSL3) laboratory for experiments related to...

Brucellosis in small ruminants, primarily caused by B. melitensis, remains a significant threat to public health in many regions. Although early-age vaccination of breeding stocks was expected to facilitate infection control, this approach did not me...
