Genetic recombination-mediated evolutionary interactions between phages of potential industrial importance and prophages of their hosts within or across the domains of Escherichia, Listeria, Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Staphylococcus

BMC Microbiology
Background The in-depth understanding of the role of lateral genetic transfer (LGT) in phage-prophage interactions is essential to rationalizing phage applications for human and animal therapy, as well as for food and environmental safety. This in silico

Exploring the Antiviral Potential of Tungsten Oxide Nanoparticles Against Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1: A Promising Alternative to Acyclovir

IET Nanobiotechnology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV‐1) is responsible for the majority of cold sores, herpetic keratitis‐induced blindness, profound skin lesions, and encephalitis that can be fatal. Currently, acyclovir and its derivatives are the first‐line therapy for the treatment of HSV‐1 infection.

The Effects of Various Physical and Chemical Agents on a Staphylococcus Bacteriophage [PDF]

, 1956
In recent years considerable attention has been focused on a group of organisms known as bacterial viruses or bacteriophages. These minute virus particles are parasitic upon bacterial cells and probably most bacteria are susceptible to one or more of ...

PGN_0298 in the Assembly and Insertion Machinery (Aim) Operon Is Essential for the Viability of Porphyromonas gingivalis

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 1, Page 9-14, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Porphyromonas gingivalis is a typical periodontal pathogen, and one of its key virulence factors is the powerful protease gingipains. Gingipains are secreted via the type IX secretion system (T9SS) and are associated with the assembly and insertion machinery (Aim) operon (PGN_0296 to PGN_0301), which encodes both T9SS components and non‐T9SS ...

Characterization and host range prediction of Staphylococcus aureus phages through receptor-binding protein analysis

Cell Reports
Summary: Bacteriophages are crucial in bacterial communities and can be used for therapy of multidrug-resistant pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus. However, the host range of new phages remains difficult to predict.

Effect of High‐Pressure Processing Operating Parameters on Microbial Inactivation and Bioactive Protein Preservation in Bovine Milk: A Systematic Review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT In the U.S., bovine milk is processed using thermal pasteurization to ensure microbial safety. However, this process alters the structure of heat‐sensitive bioactive proteins associated with the functional benefits of raw milk, including antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant proteins.

Integration of Colorimetric Sensing Dyes and Multi‐Substrate Arrays for Food Quality and Safety Monitoring: Design, Optimization, and Analysis

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT As food safety issues gain increasing attention, the need for rapid, accurate, and low‐cost detection techniques becomes essential. Colorimetric sensors, known for their rapid response, high sensitivity, low cost, and readily observable results, are playing an increasingly important role in food quality inspection. This review article provides
