The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its promising ...

Oral flora of domestic cats in Hong Kong: Identification of antibiotic‐resistant strains
Abstract Background As the clinical outcome of bite‐associated infection is related to the oral commensals, evaluating their composition and antibiotic susceptibility pattern can provide more information for the antibiotic treatment of wound infections and increase the awareness of the multidrug‐resistant bacteria in cat oral flora. Aims This study was

Descriptive epidemiology of dermatophytosis in rodents
Rodents are among hosts of dermatophyte that can transfer the disease to human and other animals. A total of 163 rodents including rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters suspecting having dermatophytosis were sampled by scraping skin lesions. Direct microscopic examination, culture, and polymerase chain reaction were done to evaluate dermatophytosis and ...

A Bacterial Sulfotransferase Catalyzes an Unusual Di‐Sulfation in Natural Products Biosynthesis
Herein, a unique sulfotransferase, AdpST, is identified from the adp biosynthetic gene clusters (BGC) in Streptomyces davaonensis DSM101723 and demonstrates that AdpST possesses di‐sulfation activity, which is unprecedented for bacterial phosphoadenosine‐5’‐phosphosulfate (PAPS)‐dependent sulfotransferases. It is further shown that the adp BGC contains

Characterizing the removal of antibiotics in algal wastewater treatment ponds : a case study on tetracycline in HRAPs: a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Engineering at Massey University, Turitea Campus, Palmerston, New Zealand [PDF]
Antibiotics are ubiquitous pollutants in wastewater, owing to their usefulness in both animal and human treatment. Antibiotic pollution is a growing concern because of the risk of encouraging antibiotic resistance in wastewater treatment (WWT) systems ...

An affitin derived from the Sac7d scaffold enables the light‐controlled affinity purification of antibodies under physiological conditions, thus overcoming limitations of protein A chromatography. X‐ray crystallographic analysis and affinity measurements reveal complex formation with Fc at the CH2/CH3 junction, similar to protein A/G and FnRn. Combined

Fungal granules inoculated on sterilised soil caused upto 76% mealworm mortality. Abstract In Australia, sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is vulnerable to root feeding insect pests such as wireworms (e.g., Agrypnus spp.). The number of registered insecticides to control these insect pests is limited and often pest pressure, for example by wireworms, is

Abstract FtsZ forms a ring‐like assembly at the site of division in bacteria. It is the first protein involved in the formation of the divisome complex to split the cell into two halves, indicating its importance in bacterial cell division. FtsZ is an attractive target for developing new anti‐microbial drugs to overcome the challenges of antibiotic ...

Light and storage time influence the microbial quality of minimally processed rocket
Abstract Ready‐to‐eat minimally processed fruits and vegetables are an ideal substrate for the growth of microorganisms, including human pathogens and mycotoxin‐producing species, which question their quality and safety for customers. While we are aware of the importance of production workflows in structuring the products' microbial communities, we ...

Analysis of publicly available data on the biological activities associated with the Staphylococcus aureus NorA efflux pump shows critical inconsistencies and homogeneity issues that hinder the discovery of NorA inhibitors. Based on the tips extracted from this analysis, a standardized experimental pipeline is proposed to improve data quality and ...
