Examine the Impact of Self‐Medicated Antibiotics on Gut Bacterial Diversity From COVID‐19 Patients in Gopalganj, Bangladesh

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 5, October 2025.
Our research found that people in Bangladesh had a considerable increase in antibiotic resistance in their gut bacteria due to self‐medication with antibiotics during the COVID‐19 pandemic. To prevent the spread of antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, our research highlighted the crucial role of raising awareness and using antibiotics appropriately ...

Spa47 is an oligomerization-activated type three secretion system (T3SS) ATPase from \u3cem\u3eShigella flexneri\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

, 2016
Gram-negative pathogens often use conserved type three secretion systems (T3SS) for virulence. The Shigella type three secretion apparatus (T3SA) penetrates the host cell membrane and provides a unidirectional conduit for injection of effectors into host

Chemical Composition, Biological Action and Use of Zingiber officinale Essential Oil as an Antimicrobial Agent in Minimally Processed Beetroot Inoculated With Bacillus subtilis

Journal of Food Safety, Volume 45, Issue 5, October 2025.
This study investigates the antimicrobial effect of Zingiber officinalis essential oil on Bacillus subtilis in minimally processed beetroot. Samples were subjected to mild heat treatment, inoculated, and stored at 4°C, followed by microbiological evaluation and MALDI‐TOF MS analysis of biofilm changes.

Mechanisms and Pathological Significance of Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Bacteria

The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 18, 30 September 2025.
LLPS in bacterial infections. In biological systems, the molecular mechanisms underlying LLPS are primarily driven by multivalent protein–protein interactions, protein‐nucleic acid interactions, and intramolecular interactions mediated by IDR. Through LLPS, proteins form condensates that function as ‘microfactories,’ playing crucial roles in regulating
