A century of assessment: A systematic review of biothreat risk assessments

Risk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract Throughout the past century, assessments of the risks and benefits posed by high‐consequence biological agents have guided US decision‐making on weapons research, countermeasure development, and security policy. However, the dispersed nature of these biothreat risk assessments has presented various difficulties, such as duplicative effort ...

Brucella vulpis sp. nov., isolated from mandibular lymph nodes of red foxes (Vulpes vulpes).

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2016
Two slow-growing, Gram-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, coccoid bacteria (strains F60T and F965), isolated in Austria from mandibular lymph nodes of two red foxes (Vulpes vulpes), were subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic analysis.

Characterization of structural and immunological properties of a fusion protein between flagellin from Salmonella and lumazine synthase from Brucella [PDF]

, 2017
Aiming to combine the flexibility of Brucella lumazine synthase (BLS) to adapt different protein domains in a decameric structure and the capacity of BLS and flagellin to enhance the immunogenicity of peptides that are linked to their structure, we ...

Identification and Evaluation of the Urinary Microbiota Associated With Bladder Cancer

Cancer Innovation, Volume 4, Issue 4, August 2025.
Urinary microbiota in Chinese bladder cancer patients reveals distinct profiles between non‐muscle‐invasive and muscle‐invasive diseases, with potential biomarkers like Peptoniphilus spp. in high‐risk MIBC, suggesting a role in cancer progression. Dysbiosis may serve as a stratification marker for bladder cancer risk. ABSTRACT Background Bladder cancer

Isolation and identification of Brucella melitensis using bacteriological and molecular tools from aborted goats in the Afar region of north-eastern Ethiopia

BMC Microbiology, 2019
Infection with Brucella melitensis (B. melitensis) is one of the most important causes of abortion in goats and sheep, and also causes severe systemic disease in exposed humans.

Prevalence, Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern and Associated Factors of Staphylococcus Aureus Among Camel's Raw Milk in Babile District, Oromia, Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2025.
This graphical abstract text can be better represented through illustrations for milk samples, bacteria, risk factors (e.g., handwashing, containers), and antibiotic resistance patterns for clearer understanding and to increase engagement. ABSTRACT Background Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a versatile pathogen that causes diseases. Raw milk is an

Brucellosis and chlamydiosis seroprevalence in goats at livestock–wildlife interface areas of Zimbabwe [PDF]

, 2019
In Zimbabwe, there have been no chlamydiosis and limited brucellosis studies in goats. This study was conducted to determine the seroprevalence and risk factors of the two diseases in goats at three different livestock–wildlife interface areas: porous ...

B Cells as a Host of Persistent Salmonella Typhimurium

Immunology, Volume 175, Issue 3, Page 292-299, July 2025.
B cells: a niche for persistent Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Tm). In vitro, within B cells and in the absence of antibiotics, a persistent population of S. Tm emerges, where the SehA/B gene is implicated. Additionally, a replicative population of S. Tm is also present. Upon antibiotic administration, approximately 90% of the S.

Extended Multilocus Sequence Analysis to Describe the Global Population Structure of the Genus Brucella: Phylogeography and Relationship to Biovars

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
An extended multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) scheme applicable to the Brucella, an expanding genus that includes zoonotic pathogens that severely impact animal and human health across large parts of the globe, was developed.
