From Lake Victoria to the Tap: Antibiotic Resistance and Pathogenic Contamination of Kisumu City Water Supply and Wastewater Network

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 4, Page 547-559, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Waterborne diseases and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) pose mounting public health threats across sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly in rapidly urbanising regions dependent on untreated or poorly treated surface waters. This study applied shotgun metagenomic sequencing to characterise microbial communities, virulence factors and antibiotic ...

Novel human astroviruses: novel human diseases ?

, 2016
Astroviruses are small, non-enveloped, single-stranded positive RNA viruses that belong to the Astroviridae family. While classical human astroviruses (HAstV) are a well-recognized cause of acute non-bacterial diarrhea among young children worldwide ...

Role of the Choline‐Binding Protein A in the Ability of Porcine Ligilactobacillus salivarius FFIG58 to Modulate TLR3‐Mediated Intestinal Antiviral Immunity

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
The choline‐binding protein A (CbpA) was shown to mediate adhesion of probiotic Ligilactobacillus salivarius strains to human intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). A knockout mutant lacking the CbpA protein derived from the immunomodulatory porcine strain L. salivarius FFIG58 was obtained. The CbpA is a key surface protein of L.

Diversity of bat astroviruses in Lao PDR and Cambodia

, 2016
Astroviruses are known to infect humans and a wide range of animal species, and can cause gastroenteritis in their hosts. Recent studies have reported astroviruses in bats in Europe and in several locations in China.

Unveiling Novel Viral Diversity, Biogeography, and Host Networks in Wildlife Through High‐Throughput Sequencing Data Mining

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.
Analysis of 57 536 high‐throughput sequencing datasets uncovers a vast, hidden world of viruses in wildlife. The researchers reveal significant geographic and host‐specific patterns of viruses, and their surprising cross‐species transmissions, such as avian flu viruses infecting goats.

A novel group of avian astroviruses in wild aquatic birds

, 2012
Using a pan-astrovirus reverse transcription-PCR assay, a great diversity of novel avastroviruses was detected from wildbird and poultry samples. Two groups of astroviruses detected from wild birds are genetically related or highly similar to previously ...
