Beyond Cystic Fibrosis: Recognising Shwachman‐Diamond Syndrome in the Respiratory Clinic

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Our case shows how SDS can mimic CF (borderline sweat electrolytes, recurrent lower respiratory infections, pancreatic insufficiency) but diverge in trajectory and management. Over 42 years, our patient demonstrated: (1) recurrent infections, (2) persistent pancreatic insufficiency and (3) intermittent neutropenia.

Sustainable Recovery of Plant Lipase From Pequi Peel (caryocar brasiliense camb.) in Aqueous Two‐Phase Systems: An Optimization Approach

ChemistrySelect, Volume 10, Issue 46, December 8, 2025.
ABSTRACT While plant residues represent promising low‐cost enzyme sources, their efficient recovery remains a challenge for industrial biocatalysis. This study aimed to optimize thepurification of lipases extracted from pequi peel (Caryocar brasiliense Camb.) using aqueous two‐phase systems (ATPS) composed of polyethylene glycol (PEG) 1500 g/mol and ...

Awareness of Microbiological Safety in Playgrounds Amid Rising Antibiotic Resistance

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Playgrounds are identified as reservoirs for antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, posing a potential public health risk. Despite the existence of safety regulations for playground equipment, microbiological safety is treated superficially. Global strategies, including hygiene practices and antibacterial materials, are needed to reduce the spread of ...

Burkholderia Vaccines: Are We Moving Forward?

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013
The genus Burkholderia consists of diverse species which includes both ‘friends’ and ‘foes’. Some of the ‘friendly’ Burkholderia spp. are extensively used in the biotechnological and agricultural industry for bioremediation and biocontrol.

The Burden of Hospitalization Due to Klebsiella pneumoniae–Associated Pneumonia in Children Under 5 Years in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Health Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pneumonia is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in pediatric populations, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Knowing the prevalence and role of pathogens in pneumonia cases requiring hospitalization is essential for informing diagnosis, treatment, and prevention approaches.

BURKHOLDERIA CEPACIA SEPSIS: A NEONATAL CASE [PDF]

, 2018
Burkholderia cepacia is an aerobic, glucose non-fermenting, motile, and multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria, which is not considered from the normal human flora. It is a rare cause of sepsis in newborns, and its transmission involves human contact with heavily contaminated medical devices and disinfectants.  We describe a rare case of sepsis by

Fluoroquinolone-Resistant Mutants ofBurkholderia cepacia [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2008
ABSTRACTFluoroquinolone-resistantBurkholderia cepaciamutants were selected on ciprofloxacin. The rate of mutation ingyrAwas estimated to be 9.6 × 10−11mutations per division. Mutations ingyrAconferred 12- to 64-fold increases in MIC, and an additionalparCmutation conferred a large increase in MIC (>256-fold).

Home Microbiological Sampling in a Pediatric Cystic Fibrosis Population: Pandemic Implementation and Ongoing Use

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 60, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Background During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19) pandemic, restrictions on in‐person care threatened to disrupt in‐clinic airway sampling for microbiological surveillance, a vital aspect of cystic fibrosis (CF) care. In response, institutions developed home airway sampling strategies to allow continued guidelines‐based microbiological ...
