Spatial heterogeneity in exposure to Brucella suis and pathogenic leptospires in feral pigs across New South Wales

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 11, Page 766-776, November 2026.
Feral pigs (Sus scrofa) are important reservoirs for zoonotic and livestock pathogens in Australia, but robust information on the spatial distribution of pathogens in pig populations remains limited. We analysed serological data from a systematic, state‐wide surveillance program to investigate spatial heterogeneity in exposure to Brucella suis and ...

Heterostructured Semiconductors for Advanced Chemical and Biochemical Sensors: From Gas Sensors to Electrolyte‐Gated Transistors

Advanced Physics Research, Volume 5, Issue 10, October 2026.
Heterostructured semiconductors enable synergistic interactions between complementary materials, improving charge transport, analyte adsorption, and signal transduction in chemical and biochemical sensors. Their integration allows for high sensitivity, selectivity, stability, and low‐power operation across gas and liquid‐phase devices, while novel ...

A comparison of three DNA extractive procedures with Leptospira for polymerase chain reaction analysis

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2000
Three DNA extraction methods were evaluated in this study: proteinase K followed by phenol-chloroform; a plant proteinase (E6870) followed by phenol-chloroform; and boiling of leptospires in 0.1 mM Tris, pH 7.0 for 10 min at 100°C, with no phenol ...

Weil's Syndrome Masquerading as Acute Cholangitis: A Case Report of a Farmer With Leptospirosis

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Leptospirosis can masquerade as acute cholangitis with cholestatic jaundice, fever, and leukocytosis. In febrile patients with cholestatic liver profile without biliary obstruction, especially farmers with calf pain and conjunctival suffusion, consider leptospirosis early to initiate timely antibiotics and prevent poor outcomes.

Pilot Study of a Herbal Formulation Composed of Bidens pilosa for Constipation in Humans

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The gut microbiota and their metabolites are associated with constipation and other gastrointestinal diseases. Dietary phytochemicals are crucial factors shaping gut microbiota. Here, we conducted a first‐in‐human trial of the herbal formulation BP, composed of a Bidens pilosa extract and excipient, in volunteers with constipation.

Modular Platform for Recombinant Production of Highly Toxic Bacterial Proteins

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2026.
A modular recombinant production platform based on transient toxin neutralization enables scalable expression and purification of intrinsically toxic proteins. The approach combines natural toxin–immunity interactions with computational protein engineering to expand production of previously intractable proteins.
