Nocardia infection following phacoemulsification

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2007
Infection of a self-sealing tunnel incision is a rare but vision-threatening complication of cataract surgery. We describe two cases of side port infection following an uneventful phacoemulsification. Nocardia was isolated in one case. Both the cases were worsening on medical treatment and were successfully treated by therapeutic keratoplasty.

Old Pathogens–New Patient Types: Infections in a CAR T‐Cell Recipient. Could It Get Any More Complicated?

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The case discussed involves a 41‐year‐old Italian man who was a candidate for chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell therapy (CAR‐T) for mediastinal diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma. His CAR‐T treatment was postponed several times due to prolonged relapsing COVID‐19 and new onset of pulmonary Mycobacterium tuberculosis diseases.

Boosting Dibenzothiophene Biodesulfurization Through Implantation of a Refactored DBT Pathway in a Tailored Pseudomonas putida Chassis

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2025.
This study engineered a Pseudomonas putida strain to efficiently remove sulfur from dibenzothiophene (DBT) by reordering and optimising the dsz operon from Rhodococcus qingshengii IGTS8, enhancing catalytic activity and stability. The modified strain, P. putida DS006, showed high desulfurization efficiency in model biodesulfurization systems.
