The Effect of Multi‐Strain Probiotics, Zinc and Copper on the Performance of Broiler Chickens Challenged With Clostridium perfringens

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Our study showed that challenging broiler chickens with Clostridium perfringens reduced performance and increased mortality. Conversely, supplementing the diet with additives, such as chelated zinc, chelated copper and probiotics, helped mitigate the negative effects of C. perfringens.

A Chirality‐Converted Bacteriolytic Dodecapeptide Regulates Vibrio‐Induced Polymicrobial Infection and Ameliorates Invasion‐Associated Gut Microbiota Disequilibrium

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 38, 9 July 2026.
Multidrug‐resistant Vibrio infections are rising rapidly and threaten coastal populations worldwide. This study introduces D‐zp37, a chirality‐engineered antimicrobial peptide with exceptional potency against resistant Vibrio species. D‐zp37 kills planktonic cells, blocks mixed‐species biofilms, disrupts essential bacterial stress responses, and shows ...

Therapeutic Potential of an Endolysin Derived from Kayvirus S25-3 for Staphylococcal Impetigo

Viruses, 2019
Impetigo is a contagious skin infection predominantly caused by Staphylococcus aureus. Decontamination of S. aureus from the skin is becoming more difficult because of the emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains.

Synovial fluid proteomic biomarkers in periprosthetic joint infection: A systematic review with gene ontology and protein network analyses

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract Purpose Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a severe complication of total joint arthroplasty associated with significant morbidity, implant failure and increased healthcare costs. Diagnosis remains challenging, particularly in low‐grade and culture‐negative infections, because conventional markers lack specificity.

Diversity Patterns of Domestic Herbivore Viruses in China Reveal Transmission Dynamics with Disease Management Implications

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
This study performs pan‐viromic profiling of 14,529 samples from 5,710 domestic herbivores across five Chinese provinces, establishing the DhCN‐Virome (1,085,360 viral metagenomes). It reveals species/sample‐specific viromic signatures and cross‐species transmission dynamics, aiding unified disease control.
