Francisella-like endosymbionts, potentially harmful to human health, are transported by the universally distributed species of the ciliate Euplotes. [PDF]
Genome analyses of wild-type strains of two ecologically separated Euplotes species, E. raikovi living in temperate sea waters and E. petzi living in the polar seas, revealed that both host bacteria in their cytoplasm. These bacteria have been identified

Rombencephalitis Caused by Francisella tularensis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Common presentations of tularemia include pneumonia and ulceroglandular, oropharyngeal, or typhoidal disease. Neuromeningeal involvement is extremely rare. We report a case of a severe rhombencephalitis due to Francisella tularensis .

Species‐specific 16S‐23S ITS and antibiotic resistance IntI, blaCTX‐M, blaTEM and blaSHV genes of Klebsiella pneumoniae were detected, and most of the isolates were multidrug‐resistant. Target hazard quotient values of Fe for >1 revealed a higher level of hazard index. Target cancer risk values of Fe exceeded the recommended value (<10−4).

ABSTRACT In the U.S., bovine milk is processed using thermal pasteurization to ensure microbial safety. However, this process alters the structure of heat‐sensitive bioactive proteins associated with the functional benefits of raw milk, including antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant proteins.

Genetic identification of unique immunological responses in mice infected with virulent and attenuated Francisella tularensis [PDF]
Francisella tularensis is a category A select agent based on its infectivity and virulence but disease mechanisms in infection remain poorly understood. Murine pulmonary models of infection were therefore employed to assess and compare dissemination and ...

Különböző eredetű Francisella tularensis törzsek összehasonlító vizsgálata = Comparative examination of Francisella tularensis strains isolated from different species in Hungary [PDF]
Vizsgálataink során Magyarország közel 30 településéről összesen 67 Francisella tularensis törzset gyűjtöttünk, amely révén létrehoztunk egy hazai F. tularensis törzsgyűjteményt.
