Bacterial screening of platelet donations in England, 2014–2023

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Bacterial contamination of blood components is an ongoing problem in transfusion medicine. We analysed the bacterial screening data of platelets from England, 2014–2023, and compared this with data on reported near‐misses and transfusion‐transmitted infections (TTIs). Materials and Methods Anonymized data on bacterial

Microbial Strategies for the Degradation of Spent Lubricating Oil: A Comparative Study of Isolate Bacterium and Consortium Cultures

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
This show the biodegradation of spent lubricating oil by Bacillus sp. and a marine bacterial consortium. The consortium showed higher growth, biosurfactant production and oil removal efficiency than the isolated strain, highlighting its potential for bioremediation ABSTRACT Spent automotive lubricating oil contains complex hydrocarbons and heavy metals,

Immune system benefits of pulmonary rehabilitation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory disease characterized by pulmonary and systemic inflammation. Inflammatory mediators show relationships with shortness of breath, exercise intolerance and health related quality of life. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), a comprehensive education and exercise training programme, is the

PFAS properties and destruction methods: A focus on enzymatic degradation

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 1126-1152, June 2026.
Abstract Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as ‘forever’ chemicals and have lasting detrimental impact on the environment and living organisms. To understand PFAS molecules better, this review begins with an overview of PFAS definition, classifications and applications, and then provides a comprehensive summary and critical analysis ...

Microbial Safety of Legumes—A Review: Bacterial Contamination, Foodborne Outbreaks, and Traditional and Innovative Mitigation Strategies

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Demand for plant‐based foods, including legumes, is growing as a result of consumer preferences shifting toward food sustainability and plant‐based, protein‐rich foods. However, to ensure the food safety of such alternatives, assessing the prevalence of foodborne pathogens related to these products is critical, especially with their increasing

Environmental Stress Induces Altered Composition of Streptococcus mutans Membrane Vesicles: pH‐Driven Changes in Membrane Vesicle Production and Composition

Molecular Oral Microbiology, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 145-157, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Bacteria produce membrane vesicles (MVs) in response to environmental stress and genetic changes. Previous studies have shown that MVs can trigger inflammatory responses and may serve as important mediators of host–microbe interactions. Given the dynamic nature of the oral microbiome, bacteria such as Streptococcus mutans are frequently ...

Packaging of Macroscopic Material Payloads: Needs, Challenges, Concepts, and Future Directions

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 9, 6 May 2026.
This review introduces a unified framework that decomposes any macroscopic packaging system into the payload, packaging material, and packaging strategy and combines them into a conceptual packaging equation: packaging strategy = payload + packaging material.

Otitis in pet guinea pigs: Causes, clinical signs, treatment and outcomes

Veterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 9, Page e385-e395, 2/9 May 2026.
Abstract Background Otitis is a major disease impacting both pet guinea pigs and laboratory guinea pigs that are used as models in human otological studies. Methods Medical records from two veterinary clinics were retrospectively reviewed to identify guinea pigs diagnosed with computed tomography (CT)‐confirmed otitis between 2014 and 2023.
