Long‐Term Effects of a Dietary Humic Substance–Butyrate Blend, and Yeast Cell Wall on Growth Performance, Immune Status and Gut Microbiota of Juvenile Channel Catfish Ictalurus punctatus

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the long‐term effects of a dietary humic substance and butyrate blend (HSB) alone or with yeast cell wall (Beta‐MOS) in channel catfish. Around 1440 fish (31.31 ± 0.24 g) were distributed among 12 outdoor tanks in a pond‐supplied flow‐through design. Four dietary treatments were evaluated in triplicate: Diets containing no

Identification of Shiga-Toxin-Producing Shigella Infections in Travel and Non-Travel Related Cases in Alberta, Canada

open access: yesToxins, 2021
It has long been accepted that Shiga toxin (Stx) only exists in Shigella dysenteriae serotype 1. However, in recent decades, the presence of Shiga toxin genes (stx) in other Shigella spp. have been reported. We screened 366 Shigella flexneri strains from

De novo or Salvage? Nucleotide Availability as a Driver of Bacterial Adaptation and Virulence

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Bacterial pathogens survive in different host environments by switching between making nucleotides by de novo synthesis and scavenging them from the host. This flexibility supports growth and virulence making nucleotide metabolism an attractive therapeutic target.

Chain‐Length Regulation by WzzE Is Necessary for, but Genetically Separable From, Cyclic Enterobacterial Common Antigen Synthesis

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 126, Issue 2, Page 190-207, August 2026.
Here, we demonstrate that polysaccharide chain length regulation plays a distinct role in enabling formation of a cyclic molecule important for the bacterial cell surface. However, this function is necessary, but not sufficient for the cyclic molecule's biosynthesis.

Shigella Effector VirA Suppresses Plant Immunity by Compromising PRA1.F3‐Dependent Accumulation of FLS2 at the Plasma Membrane

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5267-5282, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Surface immune receptors such as flagellin‐sensitive 2 (FLS2) are critical for plant defence, and their accumulation at the plasma membrane is tightly controlled by the endomembrane system. Here, we identify the Arabidopsis thaliana prenylated Rab acceptor PRA1.F3 as a positive regulator required for efficient accumulation of FLS2 at the ...

Development of a loop‐mediated isothermal amplification‐lateral flow dipstick (LAMP‐LFD) assay and on‐site rapid detection evaluation for Rodentibacter heylii and Rodentibacter pneumotropicus

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 7, Page 1395-1408, July 2026.
This study established a closed‐tube LAMP‐LFD assay for detecting Rodentibacter heylii and Rodentibacter pneumotropicus. The method exhibited high sensitivity (detection limits of 10−5 ng/μL for R. heylii and 10−4 ng/μL for R. pneumotropicus), high specificity, reliable performance with clinical samples, and effective validation in experimental ...

Aloe vera in Food Preservation: Harnessing Bioactive Constituents for Clean‐Label Innovation and Safety Assurance

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 574-599, July 2026.
Aloe vera‐derived biopolymers and nanoformulations enhance antimicrobial, antioxidant, and barrier functions in clean‐label edible coatings and films, whereas safety‐critical anthraquinone thresholds and regulatory constraints shape their translational potential.
