Genetic Toolbox Expansion Enables Constitutively Fluorescent Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus for Functional Microbiome Research

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
We expanded the genetic toolkit for Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus by enabling direct cloning, and leveraging five constitutive promoters and a repressor system. Fluorescent L. rhamnosus strains with different fluorochromes engineered with the high‐performing PtlpA promoter demonstrated functionality in microbial competition assays, supporting microbiome

Screening for bacterial vaginosis

open access: yesInfectious Diseases in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1998
The IIDSOG-USA has advocated antepartum screening for bacterial vaginosis (BV) in all pregnant women in an attempt to prevent premature delivery. The point is well made that there are a number of screening tests routinely performed during pregnancy that may or may not be beneficial. The question of whether or not routine screening for BV has merit with
