Use of a Cytobrush for Sampling the Ear Canal of Dogs With Otitis Externa. [PDF]

Vet Dermatol
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.

Whole genome sequencing and de novo assembly of Staphylococcus pseudintermedius: a pangenome approach to unravelling pathogenesis of canine pyoderma

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 32, Issue 6, Page 654-663, December 2021., 2021
Background Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is the main aetiological agent of canine pyoderma. Whole genome sequencing is the most comprehensive way of obtaining relevant genomic information about micro‐organisms. Hypothesis/Objectives Oxford Nanopore technology enables quality sequencing and de novo assembly of the whole genome of S.

A plasmid network from the gut microbiome of semi-isolated human groups reveals unique and shared metabolic and virulence traits

Scientific Reports, 2022
The plasmids in gut microbiomes have the potential to contribute to the microbiome community, as well as human health and physiology. Nevertheless, this niche remains poorly explored.

Gardnerella vaginalis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae Are Effectively Inhibited by Lactobacilli with Probiotic Properties Isolated from Brazilian Cupuaçu (Theobroma grandiflorum) Fruit

BioMed Research International, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
In recent years, certain Lactobacillus sp. have emerged in health care as an alternative therapy for various diseases. Based on this, this study is aimed at evaluating in vitro the potential probiotics of five lactobacilli strains isolated from pulp of cupuaçu fruit fermentation against Gardnerella vaginalis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Diclofenac May Induce PIA‐Independent Biofilm Formation in Staphylococcus aureus Strains

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Staphylococcus aureus is a pathogen commonly resistant to antibiotics. Biofilm formation is one of the important factors related to its virulence. Non‐antibiotics drugs, such as nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory agents (NSAIDs), have been studied as an alternative for treating infections by multiresistant pathogens and biofilm‐associated infections.

Microrganismos endofíticos

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 1996
Fungos, leveduras, bactérias e flagelados associados a células de tecidos internos de plantas saudáveis são chamados microorganismos endofíticos. A relação estabelecida entre o microorganismo endofítico e a planta é não patogênica e assintomática. Esta associação simbiótica provê ao microorganismo nutrição, proteção, sobrevivência e disseminação via ...
