Acute Toxicity and Genotoxicity of cMoL, a Lectin From Moringa oleifera Seeds With Antifungal Activity Against Cryptococcus Strains

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coagulant Moringa oleifera lectin (cMoL) is one of the compounds involved in the application of M. oleifera seeds for traditional water treatment methods. The present study highlights the new biotechnological potential of cMoL lectin as an antifungal agent against Cryptococcus neoformans B3501 and H99 and Cryptococcus gattii R265 strains ...

Detection of blaNDM‐1 and blaIMP‐1 Metallo‐β‐Lactamases in Meropenem‐Resistant Clinical Escherichia coli Isolates Using Modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method (mCIM) and PCR Techniques

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study examines the prevalence of blaNDM‐1 and blaIMP‐1 metallo‐β‐lactamase genes in meropenem‐resistant Escherichia coli isolates using mCIM and PCR. The results indicate a higher prevalence of blaNDM‐1 and suggest the presence of alternative resistance mechanisms in some strains, emphasizing the need for further research on antimicrobial ...

Management of acute meningitis

open access: yesClinical medicine (London), 2018
Acute meningitis remains a devastating disease. Clinicians need a low threshold for suspecting meningitis, to undertake appropriate investigations and provide treatment in a timely manner, to minimise the risk of poor outcome in bacterial disease, while ...

Mid‐Regional Proadrenomedullin in Cerebrospinal Fluid Is a Reliable Diagnostic and Prognostic Marker for Acute Meningoencephalitis and Neurological Disorders

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
MR‐ProADM levels reflect Adrenomedullin response to BBB damage. CSF levels are quite variable across different neurological syndromes, but they are particularly high in acute CNS infections, which makes MR‐ProADM a promising additional diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in this setting.

Lack of continuity between Cronobacter biotypes and species as determined using multilocus sequence typing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The accuracy of the Cronobacter biotyping scheme was compared with the 7-loci multilocus sequence typing scheme. Biotyping did not reliably assign species level identification, as only half (17/31) of the biotype variants were unique to any of the seven ...

Genetic and environmental influences on sleep quality, ability to settle, and crying duration in 2‐ and 5‐month‐old infants: A longitudinal twin study

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
This study found that genetic factors largely influence crying duration and settle ability in infancy, while shared environmental factors primarily affect the number of night wakeups. Etiological influences tended to change from 2 to 5 months, reflecting a highly plastic period in infant brain development and in child‐environment interactions. Abstract
