Microbial memories [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2021
The microbiota impedes pathogen invasion of the intestinal ecosystem, a phenomenon termed colonization resistance. In an upcoming issue of Cell, Stacy et al. describe host-initiated metabolite pathways that functionally alter the microbiota after primary infection, thereby augmenting colonization resistance to subsequent infection.

Garden compost inoculum leads to microbial bioanodes with potential-independent characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Garden compost leachate was used to form microbial bioanodes under polarization at 0.4, 0.2 and +0.1 V/SCE. Current densities were 6.3 and 8.9 A m2 on average at 0.4 and +0.1 V/SCE respectively, with acetate 10 mM.

Assessment of the impact of locally fabricated oven and sun drying method on the proximate, mineral and microbiological composition of Clarias gariepinus (catfish)

open access: yesThe Proceedings of the Nigerian Academy of Science
Drying is an age long practice which prevent fish from deterioration and spoilage, however, traditional drying is usually practiced in rural settings with poor hygienic conditions, thus, the nutritional and microbial quality of such products is uncertain.

Rumen microbial (meta)genomics and its application to ruminant production

open access: yesAnimal, 2013
Meat and milk produced by ruminants are important agricultural products and are major sources of protein for humans. Ruminant production is of considerable economic value and underpins food security in many regions of the world. However, the sector faces

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
