Opportunistic Pathogens in Drinking Water Distribution Systems—A Review [PDF]

Microorganisms
In contrast to “frank” pathogens, like Salmonella entrocolitica, Shigella dysenteriae, and Vibrio cholerae, that always have a probability of disease, “opportunistic” pathogens are organisms that cause an infectious disease in a host with a weakened ...

Opportunistic Premise Plumbing Pathogens: Increasingly Important Pathogens in Drinking Water

Pathogens, 2015
Opportunistic premise plumbing pathogens are responsible for a significant number of infections whose origin has been traced to drinking water. These opportunistic pathogens represent an emerging water borne disease problem with a major economic cost of ...

The Genus Ochrobactrum as Major Opportunistic Pathogens [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2020
Ochrobactrum species are non-enteric, Gram-negative organisms that are closely related to the genus Brucella. Since the designation of the genus in 1988, several distinct species have now been characterised and implicated as opportunistic pathogens in ...

Phenotypic heterogeneity of capsule production across opportunistic pathogens [PDF]

mBio
Phenotypic heterogeneity allows bacteria to adapt fast to changing environments. Extracellular capsules are well-known virulence factors, but also increase the cell adaptability and prevalence under hostile conditions.

Integrative analyses identify opportunistic pathogens of patients with lower respiratory tract infections based on metagenomic next-generation sequencing [PDF]

Heliyon
Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) represent some of the most globally prevalent and detrimental diseases. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology has effectively addressed the requirement for the diagnosis of clinical infectious

Coalescence of bacterial groups originating from urban runoffs and artificial infiltration systems among aquifer microbiomes [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2020
The invasion of aquifer microbial communities by aboveground microorganisms, a phenomenon known as community coalescence, is likely to be exacerbated in groundwaters fed by stormwater infiltration systems (SISs).

Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli and Milk Fat Globules

Microorganisms, 2022
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are zoonotic Gram-negative bacteria. While raw milk cheese consumption is healthful, contamination with pathogens such as STEC can occur due to poor hygiene practices at the farm level.
