Microbial and Chemical Drivers of Indoor Air Quality in Educational Environments

open access: yesIndoor Air, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Indoor air quality (IAQ) in educational facilities is shaped by a dynamic interplay of microbial, chemical and physical factors, all of which influence health and cognitive performance. This study explored IAQ in university classrooms by combining microbiological, chemical and physical measurements to better understand microbial–chemical interactions ...

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).

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.

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 ...

Legionnaires’ Disease: Clinicoradiological Comparison of Sporadic Versus Outbreak Cases

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Circulatory, Respiratory and Pulmonary Medicine, 2017
Background: In 2015, New York City experienced the worst outbreak of Legionnaires’ disease in the history of the city. We compare patients seen during the 2015 outbreak with sporadic cases of Legionella during the past 5 years.

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.

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 ...
