As the world approaches wild poliovirus eradication, effective containment measures are essential to minimize the risk of a facility-associated reintroduction into a polio-free community. Between 2017 and 2024, the United States established a nationa...

Standard therapy for infective endocarditis (IE) usually requires 4–6 weeks of intravenous (IV) antibiotics, ensuring sustained bactericidal concentrations, yet resulting in prolonged hospitalization and increased cost of care. These challenges...

Multi-drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) commonly causes infections that are difficult to treat, necessitating the development of new therapeutics. The search for more effective ways to combat the emergence of bacterial resistance...

This study compared the efficacy of three individual lytic phages, PSA_LMAPSA-2T (PSA-2T), PSA_LMAPSA-6F (PSA-6F) and PSA_LMAPSA-7F (PSA-7F) and four phage cocktails (dual and triple combinations) in inactivating Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae....

The infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) used to be one of the largest loss factors in Atlantic salmon farming. Since 2009, marker-assisted selection for resistance to IPN, targeting a single major quantitative trait locus (QTL), has led to a...

Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) are significant viral pathogens associated with a wide spectrum of diseases, particularly acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) in children. This study aimed to characterize the epidemiological features of HAdV infecti...

More than 3 million children are infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) worldwide. Therapies with direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) are characterized by high efficiency and acceptable tolerability. Rare cases of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) following HCV...

Heat is widely used to decontaminate livestock environments, yet performance varies with virus, surface, moisture, and organic load. We evaluated the effects of temperature (50, 60, 70 °C) and exposure time on the viability of 10 veterinary-relev...

Background: Biofilm-associated infections remain a major challenge in modern medicine due to their high resistance to antibiotics and immune defences. Advances in materials science, chemistry, and nanotechnology have led to the development of innovat...

Canine hookworms represent some of the most globally prevalent parasitic nematodes affecting dogs and pose a significant zoonotic risk to humans, in whom they can induce cutaneous larva migrans. Infection with these parasites may lead to blood loss,...
