Cold plasma‐induced modifications in the physico‐functional properties of glucan exopolysaccharide derived from Enterococcus hirae OL616073

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the influence of cold plasma treatment on the physicochemical characteristics of glucan exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Enterococcus hirae OL616073 isolated from idli batter. The glucan EPS was exposed to pin‐to‐plate atmospheric cold plasma at 170–230 V for 5–15 min, generating cold plasma‐treated glucan (CPTG ...

Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern and Biofilm Formation in Clinical Isolates of Enterococcus spp.

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, 2019
Enterococcus is a commensal in the intestine and is now emerging as a drug-resistant pathogen. It produces different virulence factors. Enterococcus surface protein (esp) is a virulence factor that helps in the adhesion, but its role in biofilm formation

Mitigating Microbial Contamination in Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Using Ultraviolet C Irradiation: A Review

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Although fresh produce is extremely perishable and contaminated, it is essential for good health. To eliminate important foodborne pathogens, this paper investigates UV‐C irradiation as a safe, nonthermal technique. UV dose, exposure duration, and product characteristics all affect effectiveness.

Perioperative Piperacillin/Tazobactam Reduces Early Onset SSI in Preirradiated Patients Undergoing Microvascular Head and Neck Reconstruction

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Preirradiated patients undergoing microvascular head and neck reconstruction for tumor recurrence or osteoradionecrosis (ORN) face surgical site infection (SSI) rates exceeding 30%. The impact of perioperative extended‐spectrum antibiotic coverage remains unclear. This study hypothesizes that calculated prophylaxis with piperacillin/

Fecal Bacteria Contamination of Floodwaters and a Coastal Waterway From Tidally‐Driven Stormwater Network Inundation

GeoHealth
Inundation of coastal stormwater networks by tides is widespread due to sea‐level rise (SLR). The water quality risks posed by tidal water rising up through stormwater infrastructure (pipes and catch basins), out onto roadways, and back out to receiving ...

The gut microbiome promotes the growth performance of black soldier fly larvae by detoxifying uric acid

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the detrimental effects of exogenous uric acid (UA) on the growth of black soldier fly (BSF) larvae, highlighting the role of gut microbiota in UA degradation. We isolated UA‐degrading bacterial strains associated with BSF, including Enterococcus faecalis AHAU24.
