The effects of far‐UVC irradiation on the presence and concentration of ESKAPEE pathogens on hospital surfaces: Study protocol for a multi‐site, double‐blinded randomized controlled trial in La Paz, Bolivia

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
The protocol of a multi‐site, double‐blinded, clustered randomized controlled trial (cRCT) with a binary outcome of the presence of viable presumptive ESKAPEE pathogens on surfaces in and around hospital sinks is to be implemented in two Bolivian hospitals.

Effects of probiotic dietary supplementation on diarrhoea patterns, faecal microbiota and performance of early weaned calves

Veterinární Medicína, 2010
Twenty Lithuanian Black-and-White calves (10 bulls, 10 heifers) were used to evaluate the effects of the supplemental probiotic product, Enterococcus faecium M74 (2.4 g/day/calve), added to fresh milk and skimmed milk in a 56 day-study. The probiotic was

233 nm far‐UV‐C radiation for biofilm inactivation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Based on tests to assess biofilm formation potential (crystal violet staining, color of colonies grown on Congo red agar and calcofluor agar), three bacterial genera/species/strains (Staphylococcus (S.) epidermidis, S. aureus, Pseudomonas (P.) aeruginosa) were selected for analysis of their biofilm matrix composition.

Microbial Contamination in Deceased Musculoskeletal Tissue Donors: A Large‐Scale US Analysis of Infection Risk

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This large‐scale study of over one‐million musculoskeletal swabs highlights anatomical variability in microbial contamination of musculoskeletal tissues and identifies high‐risk recovery zones for virulent organisms. ABSTRACT Background Microbial contamination of musculoskeletal tissues recovered from deceased donors poses a risk for donor‐derived ...

Early Onset Bacteremia in Kidney Transplant Recipients in the Current Era

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bloodstream infection (BSI) after kidney transplantation increases the risk of graft loss and mortality. We aimed to identify contemporary risk factors and outcomes of early BSI (eBSI) at our transplant center. Methods We conducted a retrospective chart review of adult kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) from 2019 to 2023.

Clinical Significance of Organ Preservation Fluid Cultures in Pediatric Abdominal Solid Organ Transplantation

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In this pediatric abdominal solid organ transplant cohort, preservation fluid‐related infections were rare but occurred in infant liver transplant recipients whose preservation fluid cultures grew pathogenic organisms. These findings suggest that routine bacterial preservation fluid cultures may be most useful for identifying clinically significant ...

Effect of Green‐Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles From Nepeta pogonosperma and Astrodaucus persicus on the Reduction of Bap Gene Expression in Strong Biofilm‐Producing Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Green‐synthesized silver nanoparticles from Nepeta pogonosperma and Astrodaucus persicus significantly inhibit biofilm formation and downregulate bap gene expression in multidrug‐resistant clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii. This eco‐friendly approach offers a promising strategy to combat antimicrobial resistance.

Molecular Diagnostics for WHO Priority Bacterial Pathogens: A Bibliometric Mapping of Diagnostic Platforms, Resistance Markers, and Antimicrobial Resistance Research Trends

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
This bibliometric mapping of 1746 publications (2000–2025) charts molecular diagnostics for WHO priority bacterial pathogens across platforms, targets, and resistance markers. Conventional PCR/NAAT and whole‐genome sequencing emerge as complementary core platforms, and the field evolves from targeted pathogen detection into an AMR‐centered ...

Insights Into the Antibiofilm Activity of Carbon Quantum Dots Against a Panel of Different Microorganisms: A Review

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Carbon quantum dots (CDs) have emerged as versatile nanoplatforms for combating biofilm‐associated infections through multiple mechanisms, including EPS disruption, membrane damage, ROS generation, and quorum sensing inhibition. This review highlights how CD physicochemical properties and surface engineering strategies influence antibiofilm activity ...
