Epidemiology and diagnosis of viral and bacterial central nervous system infections in Sri Lanka: A Narrative review

open access: yesSri Lankan Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
Bacterial central nervous system (CNS) infections are life-threatening diseases with high mortality and long-term neurological sequels, while viral CNS infections are mild and self-limited. In Sri Lanka, 1000-1500 and 150-250 patients with meningitis and

Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage

Human enteric bacteria and viruses in five wastewater treatment plants in the Eastern Cape, South Africa

open access: yesJournal of Infection and Public Health, 2017
Monitoring effluents from wastewater treatment plants is important to preventing both environmental contamination and the spread of disease. We evaluated the occurrence of human enteric bacteria (faecal coliforms and Escherichia coli) and viruses ...

Clinical and Genomic Epidemiology of Coxsackievirus A21 and Enterovirus D68 in Homeless Shelters, King County, Washington, USA, 2019–2021

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases
Congregate homeless shelters are disproportionately affected by infectious disease outbreaks. We describe enterovirus epidemiology across 23 adult and family shelters in King County, Washington, USA, during October 2019–May 2021, by using repeated cross-

Effect of ultrasound with methylene blue as sound sensitive agent on virus inactivation

open access: yesMedicine in Novel Technology and Devices, 2023
The goal of this paper is to explore a method for virus inactivation based on ultrasonic treatment, and on this basis, to explore the synergistic effect of methylene blue as a sonosensitizer in virus inactivation.

Detection of Enterovirus D68 in Wastewater Samples from the UK between July and November 2021

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Infection with enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) has been linked with severe neurological disease such as acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) in recent years. However, active surveillance for EV-D68 is lacking, which makes full assessment of this association difficult ...

Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*

open access: yesXenotransplantation, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...
