The Susceptibility of Blastomyces dermatitidis to Drying

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1967
SummaryThe effect of drying on the loss of viability of Blastomyces dermatitidis in sterile soil is reported. 1. An average of 90% loss of viability occurred after 5 days storage at room temperature in cotton plugged tubes or in a desiccator. The loss increased to 95% after 11 days or longer.

A Case of Sepsis Caused by ST80 Multidrug‐Resistant Enterococcus faecium With Concurrent Klebsiella pneumoniae Infection in a Dog

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
An 8‐year‐old dog developed acute respiratory distress that progressed to sepsis and death. Multidrug‐resistant Enterococcus faecium ST80 was isolated from the liver and kidney, while Klebsiella pneumoniae was detected in the lung by PCR. Whole‐genome sequencing showed that the ST80 isolates were genetically identical, suggesting hematogenous spread ...

Lung Biopsies in Patients Referred for Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation: Diagnostic Accuracy, Diagnostic Yield, and Clinical Utility

Transplant Infectious Disease, Volume 28, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Among patients referred for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation with pulmonary opacities, lung biopsy provided a diagnosis in 72% of procedures and altered management in 51%. Despite a 7% major complication rate, lung biopsy frequently clarified noninfectious etiologies when bronchoscopy was inconclusive.
