Microbiological safety in the reuse of materials in home enteral nutrition: A quantitative in vitro experimental study

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In home enteral nutrition (HEN), the reuse of packaging and administration materials beyond the recommended period, combined with inadequate hygiene practice, increase the risk of microbiological contamination. This study assessed the risk through a simulation that reproduced real‐world usage conditions and hygiene practices ...

Differentiation of Bacillus anthracis from Other Bacillus cereus Group Bacteria with the PCR [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1994
Variation among isolates of Bacillus anthracis was examined by using restriction fragmentation patterns and the PCR performed with arbitrary and sequence-specific oligonucleotide primers. The patterns were compared with the patterns generated from strains of closely related species belonging to the "Bacillus cereus group" of bacteria, including B ...

Advances in Unconventional and Sustainable Synthetic Approaches to Benzopyran Scaffolds

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
This review provides a comprehensive and critical analysis of low‐impact synthetic methodologies reported in the last 8 years (2018–2026) for the construction of benzopyran‐derived scaffolds, such as coumarins, flavones, chromones, chromenes, and chromanes. The benzopyran scaffold is a versatile family of heterocycles found in a wide range of bioactive

Photocatalytic and Biotechnological Strategies for Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: Mechanisms, Toxicity, and Antimicrobial Perspectives

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

Route‐Dependent Toxicity and Ecological Selectivity of Melaleuca alternifolia Essential Oil in Apis mellifera Linnaeus, 1758 (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The intensification of agricultural practices has led to an increase in the use of insecticides, raising concerns about the exposure of non‐target organisms, particularly pollinators. In this context, plant‐derived essential oils have been proposed as environmentally friendlier alternatives due to their low persistence; however, their ...

Crystal structure of human NIF3‐like protein reveals dynamic hexameric assembly with a single divalent metal binding site

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
We present the first crystal structures of human NIF3, revealing a dynamic, hexameric ring with a central cavity regulated by flexible insertion domains. Crucially, human NIF3 features a mononuclear zinc‐binding site, marking a distinct evolutionary departure from the dinuclear centers of bacterial homologs.
