Cobalt toxicity in anaerobic granular sludge: influence of chemical speciation

, 2008
The influence of cobalt speciation on the toxicity of cobalt to methylotrophic methanogenesis in anaerobic granular sludge was investigated. The cobalt speciation was studied with three different media that contained varying concentrations of complexing ...

The Role of the Gut Microbiota in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo‐HCT) is an effective treatment for patients with high‐risk hematologic malignancies. Over the last decade, gut microbiota composition during allo‐HCT has been associated with patients' outcomes.

Recycled biowaste as a source of infection [PDF]

, 2006
Biowaste and sewage sludge can be used as a fertiliser and soil amendment in agriculture. However if not treated efficiently before use, such products can contain microbial pathogens that pose a health risk for humans and animals. This study investigated

Altered Nasal Microbiota in Sinonasal Tumors: A Comparative Analysis of Malignant and Benign Sinonasal Tumors

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although shifts in nasal microbiota have been well‐documented in inflammatory upper airway conditions, microbiota tumor‐associated alterations remain uncharacterized. This study is the first to compare sinonasal microbiota profiles of patients with malignant tumors (MT), benign tumors (BT), and controls, offering insights into tumor‐

Uncovering Cystic Fibrosis Carrier: Insights From a Heterozygous CFTR‐F508del Rabbit Model

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous inflammatory disorder frequently associated with impaired mucociliary clearance and bacterial infection. Individuals carrying a single cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutation exhibit partial CFTR dysfunction and are increasingly recognized as being at risk ...

Chronic alcohol consumption compromises gut barrier integrity and promotes endotoxemia: Implications for sepsis susceptibility in immunocompromised hosts

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Chronic alcohol exposure disrupts intestinal barrier integrity, resulting in a leaky gut and enhanced translocation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and microbial products into the systemic circulation. Alcohol‐induced endotoxemia drives exaggerated pro‐inflammatory responses, mitochondrial damage, and activation of the cGAS–STING pathway, particularly in ...

Human Leukocyte Elastase Triggered Nanoparticles for Targeted Antimicrobial Delivery and Oral Microbial Modulation

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This study explores enzyme‐responsive nanoparticles for targeted antimicrobial release in inflamed oral environments. Nanoparticles formed by complexing peptides and chlorhexidine respond to human leukocyte elastase and release chlorhexidine selectively. P7 (ECAAPVCE)‐based formulations show optimal properties and stability, with antimicrobial activity
