Canine Leishmaniasis in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2000–2015): Taxonomic Characterisation of Etiological Agents and Geospatial Case Analysis

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Canine Leishmaniasis is a vector‐borne zoonotic disease caused by several species of protozoa of the genus Leishmania. In the state of Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Leishmania braziliensis is the most prevalent species causing tegumentary leishmaniasis (TL) and Leishmania infantum is the main causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL).

Engineering of 2‐ketoacid Decarboxylases for Production of Isobutanol and Other Fusel Alcohols in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 4, Page 1036-1049, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Isobutanol is a fusel alcohol that can be produced microbially for use as a biofuel or upgraded into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). A key enzyme in the isobutanol biosynthetic pathway is 2‐ketoacid decarboxylase (KDC), which irreversibly decarboxylates 2‐ketoisovalerate (KIV) to yield isobutyraldehyde.

Soil and Genotype Shape the Sugarcane Phytobiome for Enhanced Environmental Adaptation

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Soil type and sugarcane genotype, differing in their adaptability to low‐fertility soils, interact to shape microbial recruitment and host transcriptional responses. In sandy soils, the better‐adapted genotype IACSP‐5503 recruits more plant growth‐promoting bacteria and activates growth‐related genes, while in clayey soils the less‐adapted IACSP‐6007 ...

A Novel Topical Emollient Plus for Canine Atopic Dermatitis: A Clinical Trial Assessing Efficacy and User Acceptance

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 293-305, April 2026.
Background: Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a common, chronic skin condition characterised by epidermal barrier dysfunction, immune dysregulation and cutaneous dysbiosis. While “emollient plus” formulations are widely used in human atopic dermatitis, their role in cAD remains underexplored. Hypothesis/Objectives: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and
