Metal–Organic Framework‐Based Antimicrobial Touch Surfaces to Prevent Cross‐Contamination

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 52, December 29, 2025.
A MOF‐based antimicrobial door handle cover is developed. It completely inhibits the cross‐contamination of Gram‐positive bacterial species (Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis), Gram‐negative bacterial species (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii), and fungi (Candida albicans). Abstract Infection diseases

Development and Validation of a High‐Throughput Screening Assay for the Legionella ADP‐Ribosyl Transferase SdeA

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 21, November 8, 2025.
We show the optimization and application of a fluorogenic assay to monitor Legionella SdeA activity in a High‐Throughput‐Screening campaign. Ubiquitination of proteins is one of the most crucial post‐translational modifications in eukaryotic cells, typically involving conjugation of ubiquitin to a lysine residue in a substrate using a three‐enzyme ...

Diagnostic testing for Legionnaires’ disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2017
Legionnaires’ disease is commonly diagnosed clinically using a urinary antigen test. The urinary antigen test is highly accurate for L. pneumophila serogroup 1, however other diagnostic tests should also be utilized in conjunction with the urinary ...

Legionella pneumophila: an aquatic microbe goes astray [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Legionella pneumophila is naturally found in fresh water were the bacteria parasitize within protozoa. It also survives planctonically in water or biofilms. Upon aerosol formation via man-made water systems, L.

Diversity and assembly of the microbiome of a leguminous plant along an urbanization gradient

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.
Interactions between plants and bacterial communities are essential for host physiology and broader ecosystem functioning, but plant–microbiome interactions can be disrupted by environmental change like urbanization. Here, we evaluated how urbanization affected the diversity and assembly of soil and white clover Trifolium repens microbiome communities.

Rainfall is a risk factor for sporadic cases of Legionella pneumophila Pneumonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It is not known whether rainfall increases the risk of sporadic cases of Legionella pneumonia. We sought to test this hypothesis in a prospective observational cohort study of non-immunosuppressed adults hospitalized for community-acquired pneumonia ...

Climate‐specific dynamics of fall armyworm on maize: Implications for pest monitoring and management

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 600-612, November 2025.
FAW moth captures were higher in the Sudanese zone than the Guinean zone, peaking during the major rainy season, while the Guinean zone had more captures in the dry season. In the Guinean zone, plant damage correlated with adult moth captures and larval densities, whereas no such correlation was found in the Sudanese zone or at different maize growth ...

Nosocomial Legionnaires’ Disease: Clinical and Radiographic Patterns

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1992
From 1981 to 1991, 55 patients (33 males, 22 females, mean age 58.6 years) with nosocomial Legionnaires’ disease were studied. The mortality rate was 64%. One-half of the patients developed nosocomial Legionnaires’ disease within three weeks of admission.

A CASE OF LEGIONNAIRES' DISEASE IN 70-YEAR-OLD PATIENT: DELAYED DIAGNOSIS AFTER EXPOSURE TO CONTAMINATED HOTEL SHOWER [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of IMAB
Legionellosis, an acute infectious disease, often manifests as Legionnaires' disease with severe pneumonia. Transmission occurs via inhalation of Legionella-contaminated aerosols generated by contaminated water systems, with increased susceptibility in ...
