Bacterial evolution and the Bak-Sneppen model [PDF]
Recently, Lenski et al \cite{Elena,Lenski,Travisano} have carried out several experiments on bacterial evolution. Their findings support the theory of punctuated equilibrium in biological evolution. They have further quantified the relative contributions of adaptation, chance and history to bacterial evolution.

Abstract Purpose There is a need for effective solutions for the persistent prevalence of denture stomatitis (DS) in denture‐wearing populations. This study assessed the impact of nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) nanoparticles on Candida albicans biofilm formation on milled polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture bases.

Analysis of bacterial population growth using extended logistic growth model with distributed delay [PDF]
In the present work, we develop a delayed Logistic growth model to study the effects of decontamination on the bacterial population in the ambient environment. Using the linear stability analysis, we study different case scenarios, where bacterial population may establish at the positive equilibrium or go extinct due to increased decontamination.

Steroid‐responsive generalised sterile necrotising pyogranulomatous lymphadenitis in a cat
A 1.5‐year‐old neutered male cat was presented with fever, inappetence, lethargy and marked generalised lymphadenopathy of 4 days duration. Excisional biopsy of peripheral lymph nodes revealed necrotising pyogranulomatous lymphadenitis. Extensive investigation failed to identify an underlying infectious [bacterial (Bartonella, Mycobacteria, Mycoplasma,

A Case of Infective Endocarditis and Pulmonary Septic Emboli Caused by Lactococcus lactis
Infective endocarditis is a rare condition in children with normal hearts. We present here a case of previously healthy eleven-year-old girl with infective endocarditis and pulmonary septic emboli caused by a very rare bacterial etiology (Lactococcus ...
