Real‐time quality and safety monitoring of fruit juice using paper‐based platform

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of a paper‐based biosensor for rapid detection of fruit juice spoilage. Abstract Food spoilage and safety concerns still remain critically challenging within the fruit juice industry, especially as conventional detection methods, though precise, are often too time‐consuming, costly, and reliant on centralized laboratories.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV): A Comprehensive Overview From Basic Biology to Clinical Prevention and Control

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common virus that causes respiratory infections, posing a serious threat, particularly to infants, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems. As the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) in infants, RSV is responsible for millions of cases worldwide each year.

Mycobacterium bovis nom. nov. [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1970
ABSTRACT The agent of bovine tuberculosis has been recognized at various times as a species or as a subspecies in the genus Mycobacterium Lehmann and Neumann. Although the organism is closely related to M. tuberculosis (Zopf) Lehmann and Neumann, the two species are clearly distinguished on the basis of differences in their rates of growth ...

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Low Prevalence of Mycobacterium bovis in Tuberculosis Patients, Ethiopia

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
An estimated 17% of all tuberculosis cases in Ethiopia are caused by Mycobacterium bovis. We used M. tuberculosis complex isolates to identify the prevalence of M. bovis as the cause of pulmonary tuberculosis. Our findings indicate that the proportion of
