Use of a Cytobrush for Sampling the Ear Canal of Dogs With Otitis Externa
Cytological examination of the ear canal is essential for evaluating dogs with otitis externa (OE). The conventional sampling method uses a swab. However, the cytobrush (gynaecological cervical brush), already used for cytological collection from other anatomical sites, has not been adequately investigated for this purpose in dogs with OE.

Impacts of bat use of anthropogenic structures on bats and humans
Abstract Human‐induced landscape modifications and climate change are forcing wildlife into closer contact with humans as the availability of natural habitats decreases. Although the importance of anthropogenic structures for the conservation of species is widely recognized, negative narratives surrounding bats may impede conservation efforts in human ...

Summary Microbe‐induced resistance (MIR) encompasses a broad range of plant responses that mediate both direct and indirect defenses against herbivores. However, previous studies have addressed MIR in relation to either direct or indirect defenses in isolation, overlooking potential conflicts or synergies that may arise between MIR‐elicited defense ...

ABSTRACT Background Chronic cases of canine otitis externa (OE) often develop infections with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA). Given the organism's high level of resistance, veterinary surgeons often turn to compounded solutions. Limited data describing the stability and potency of compounded ceftazidime (CAZ) solutions are available, which may affect ...

Microbial drivers of root plasticity
Summary Soils are highly heterogeneous and dynamic systems, experiencing a constant flow of plant root exudates and moisture fluctuations that affect nutrient distribution, soil physicochemical properties, and microbial metabolisms. Plant roots adjust their development within the soil matrix (growth, branching, root angle, and anatomical features) by ...

ABSTRACT The receptor‐like kinase BAK1‐INTERACTING RECEPTOR‐LIKE KINASE 1 (BIR1) negatively regulates multiple resistance signalling pathways in Arabidopsis thaliana. Previous studies showed that loss of BIR1 function causes extensive cell death and constitutive activation of immune responses.

Aplicaciones biotecnológicas de los microorganismos
The biodiversity of microorganisms as well as the unique nature and biosynthetic capabilities in specific environmental conditions make microorganisms the likely candidates to solve problems of food shortages, pest control, biodegradation of xenobiotics, decomposition of garbage, batteries of produced waste, among others.

Interactions of rare earth elements with living organisms and emerging biotechnical applications
Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical resources required to achieve net‐zero carbon emission targets and energy security. However, rising demand for REEs coupled with significant extraction and processing challenges and geopolitical risks restricts access to REE resources.

Characterisation of Antifungal Resistance to Azoles in Colombian Isolates of Malassezia spp.
ABSTRACT Background Malassezia genus includes lipodependent commensal yeasts of humans and animals' skin and mucous membranes. It can cause dermatological pathologies, and azoles are mainly used for treatment. However, in vitro susceptibility testing has shown decreased sensitivity to these antifungals.

Receptor‐like kinases BIR1 and BIR3 modulate antiviral resistance by different mechanisms
Summary BRASSINOSTEROID INSENSITIVE1‐ASSOCIATED RECEPTOR KINASE 1 (BAK1)‐INTERACTING RECEPTOR‐LIKE KINASE (BIR) proteins are negative regulators of cell death and defense against microbes in Arabidopsis thaliana. Here, we demonstrate that the members of the BIR family function as negative regulators of antiviral resistance in Arabidopsis.
