NanoMLST: A High‐Throughput Bacterial Multi‐Locus Sequence Typing Workflow Using Oxford Nanopore Next‐Generation Sequencing for ESKAPE + E Pathogens

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
NanoMLST is a workflow suggested as a viable alternative to high‐throughput ST determination for ESKAPE + E pathogens using ONT next‐generation sequencing. ABSTRACT Multi‐Locus Sequence Typing (MLST) is a key method for allocation of Sequence Types (STs) for bacterial isolates. Traditionally, this is performed by the Sanger sequencing method, which can

Fungal DNA‐barcoding on a chip: Magnetoresistive biosensors for yeast infection diagnosis

open access: yesVIEW, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
The development of a fungal pathogen identification chip is herein demonstrated. Hybridization dynamics were tested against 58 species in silico and 4 species on chip. 95% accuracy, 91% sensitivity, 98% specificity and femtomolar limit of detection were achieved. Future perspectives include the integration of sample pre‐treatment modules.

HIV‐Exposed Seronegative Female Sex Workers Show Different Cellular Immune Profiles Across the Menstrual Cycle

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 94, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Problem Female sex workers (FSWs) are at higher risk of acquiring HIV. Interestingly, some FSWs who are highly exposed remain seronegative for HIV (HESN). This natural resistance to HIV infection has been attributed to an immune quiescence (IQ) phenotype.

Treatment of vaginal infections: effectiveness of the association of metronidazole and clotrimazole

open access: yesClinical Management Issues, 2010
The normal vagina of women of reproductive age is colonised by lactobacilli that produce lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide and bacteriocins; these substances contribute to lowering the vaginal pH.

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 22, Page 3208-3243, November 2025.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...
