Impact of benzalkonium chloride, benzethonium chloride and chloroxylenol on bacterial antimicrobial resistance

Journal of Applied Microbiology, Volume 133, Issue 6, Page 3322-3346, December 2022., 2022
Abstract This review examined 3655 articles on benzalkonium chloride (BKC), benzethonium chloride (BZT) and chloroxylenol (CHO) aiming to understand their impact on antimicrobial resistance. Following the application of inclusion/exclusion criteria, only 230 articles were retained for analysis; 212 concerned BKC, with only 18 for CHO and BZT.

The Mechanism of Biochemical NO‐Sensing: Insights from Computational Chemistry

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 28, Issue 49, September 1, 2022., 2022
The production of cGMP and the resulting regulation of numerous physiological functions is regulated by the NO signaling pathway which occurs in soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). Previously investigated by experiment, the exact details of the mechanism remain unclear, as two active states have been proposed. In this work, using computational techniques,

Bacterial diversity significantly reduces toward the late stages among filarial lymphedema patients in the Ahanta West District of Ghana: A cross‐sectional study

Health Science Reports, Volume 5, Issue 4, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Lymphatic Filariasis (LF), a neglected tropical disease, has been speculated to be complicated by secondary bacteria, yet a systematic documentation of these bacterial populations is lacking. Thus, the primary focus of this study was to profile bacteria diversity in the progression of filarial lymphedema among LF individuals with or

Role of Microbes and Nanomaterials in the Removal of Pesticides from Wastewater

International Journal of Photoenergy, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Pesticides are a class of xenobiotic compounds that are recalcitrant and show persistence in the environment for a longer period of time. Research studies have linked their potential for mutagenicity, teratogenicity, and carcinogenicity. The accumulation of pesticides in water sources due to runoff from agricultural lands has posed a serious threat to ...

Isolation and Characterization of Diesel‐Degrading Bacteria from Hydrocarbon‐Contaminated Sites, Flower Farms, and Soda Lakes

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Hydrocarbon‐derived pollutants are becoming one of the most concerning ecological issues. Thus, there is a need to investigate and develop innovative, low‐cost, eco‐friendly, and fast techniques to reduce and/or eliminate pollutants using biological agents.

Reverse protein engineering of a novel 4‐domain copper nitrite reductase reveals functional regulation by protein–protein interaction

The FEBS Journal, Volume 288, Issue 1, Page 262-280, January 2021., 2021
We discovered a new class of 4‐domain Cu‐containing nitrite reductase (CuNiR) from Bradyrhizobium sp. ORS 375 that has both cytochrome (Cytc) and cupredoxin (Cup) domains tethered to catalytic core (Core) domain at the N‐terminus. This article reports the first characterization of this enzyme (BrNiR) and its domain‐truncated 3‐ and 2‐domain mutants ...

rRNA Analysis Based on Long‐Read High‐Throughput Sequencing Reveals a More Accurate Diagnostic for the Bacterial Infection of Ascites

BioMed Research International, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Traditional pathogenic diagnosis presents defects such as a low positivity rate, inability to identify uncultured microorganisms, and time‐consuming nature. Clinical metagenomics next‐generation sequencing can be used to detect any pathogen, compensating for the shortcomings of traditional pathogenic diagnosis.
