Brachyspira pilosicoli-induced avian intestinal spirochaetosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Avian intestinal spirochetosis (AIS) is a common disease occurring in poultry that can be caused by Brachyspira pilosicoli, a Gram-negative bacterium of the order Spirochaetes. During AIS, this opportunistic pathogen colonises the lower gastrointestinal (

Geographical distribution and species variation of gut microbiota in small rodents from the agro‐pastoral transition ecotone in northern China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
This study explored the gut microbiota of four rodent species in northern China and found that microbial composition was more influenced by geographic location than host species, highlighting the pivotal role of the local environment in shaping gut microbiota.

Noma affected children from Niger have distinct oral microbial communities based on high-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene fragments.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
We aim to understand the microbial ecology of noma (cancrum oris), a devastating ancient illness which causes severe facial disfigurement in>140,000 malnourished children every year. The cause of noma is still elusive.

Correlating Methane Production to Microbiota in Anaerobic Digesters Fed Synthetic Wastewater [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) between relative abundance values and digester methane production rate was developed. For this, 50 triplicate anaerobic digester sets (150 total digesters) were each seeded with different methanogenic

Characterization of a filamentous biofilm community established in a cellulose-fed microbial fuel cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are devices that exploit microorganisms to generate electric power from organic matter. Despite the development of efficient MFC reactors, the microbiology of electricity generation remains to be sufficiently ...

Effects of squamous cell carcinoma and smoking status on oropharyngeal and laryngeal microbial communities

open access: yesHead &Neck, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 145-160, January 2024.
Abstract Background Still, little is known about microbial dysbiosis in oropharyngeal and laryngeal tissue as risk factor for development of local squamous cell carcinoma. The site‐specific microbiota at these regions in healthy and cancer tissue and their modulation by environmental factors need to be defined.
