Health and safety in recreational waters

Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 2014
The recreational use of waters has increased in recent decades all over the world. Swimming pools and other recreational water facilities offer opportunities for enjoyment and health promotion, but they also may involve health risks, despite the fact that better management and modern technologies for water treatment and quality monitoring (e.g.

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Factors Affecting Childhood Drowning: An Evidence-based Study in Bangladesh

Asian Journal of Social Health and Behavior
Introduction: Drowning is the leading cause of death among children aged 1–17 years in rural Bangladesh. Despite substantial progress in reducing infectious disease mortality–from 54 per 100,000 in 2011 to 23.62 per 100,000 in 2021–child drowning remains

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.
