Current Advancements of Probiotic Foods and Their Role in Sustainable Food Security

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Probiotic foods have evolved from traditional fermented products to scientifically validated functional foods, defined by the FAO and WHO as live microorganism that confer a health benefit on the host when administered in adequate amounts, with effects being strain, does and end point specific.

Characterization of the ear canal bacterial flora present in hearing Aids (HA) wearing subjects [PDF]

, 2019
The use of hearing aids (HA) is considered a predisposing factor for ear microbial infections. We undertook this study to compare the presence and nature of the microbial flora inhabiting of ears of HA and non-HA (nHA) users.

Stratification of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps by distinct sinonasal microbial communities and their clinical and pathological correlations

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a heterogeneous inflammatory condition. Dysbiosis is commonly observed. This study identified distinct sinonasal microbial communities in CRSwNP patients and explored their clinical and pathological associations. Two distinct microbial communities were identified: community type 1 (CT1), dominated by

Novel Corynebacterium diphtheriae in domestic cats [PDF]

, 2010
Novel nontoxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae was isolated from a domestic cat with severe otitis. Contact investigation and carrier study of human and animal contacts yielded 3 additional, identical isolates from cats, although no evidence of zoonotic ...

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Clindamycin: an effective treatment for granulomatous mastitis caused by Corynebacterium kroppenstedtii in a pregnant patient

European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2023
Corynebacterium spp. are Gram-positive bacteria, and recent studies have proposed a potential link between granulomatous mastitis and Corynebacterium kroppenstedtii infections, posing a challenge in selecting appropriate antibiotics, particularly in ...

Bacterial exchange in household washing machines [PDF]

, 2015
Household washing machines (WMs) launder soiled clothes and textiles, but do not sterilize them. We investigated the microbial exchange occurring in five household WMs. Samples from a new cotton T-shirt were laundered together with a normal laundry load.

Distinct Nasal Microbiome Profiles and Prediction Model for Allergic Rhinitis, Nonallergic Rhinitis, and Healthy Children

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
The alpha and beta diversity of the nasal microbiome differed among children with allergic rhinitis (AR), nonallergic rhinitis (NAR), and healthy controls (HCs). Compared to HC, AR had more Escherichia‐Shigella, Negativicoccus, and Campylobacter, while NAR had more Dolosigranulum and fewer Enterobacteriaceae.

Emergence of Related Nontoxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae Biotype mitis Strains in Western Europe

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1999
We report on 17 isolates of Corynebacterium diphtheriae biotype mitis with related ribotypes from Switzerland, Germany, and France. Isolates came from skin and subcutaneous infections of injecting drug users, homeless persons, prisoners, and elderly ...
