Open DOI
Changes in the broiler litter bacterial microbiome during production on UK farms
Aim: The management and characteristics of broiler chicken litter are important for bird health and production. The bacterial community within the litter is an area of increasing interest. This work aimed to develop a profile of the bact...

Open DOI
Efficient synergistic accomplishment of methyl orange decolorization and Cr(VI) adsorption by Staphylococcus succinus H3
Aims: Dye‑Cr(VI) co‑pollution poses serious environmental hazards; endophytic bacteria are promising bioremediators while their dual pollutant removal traits remain insufficiently explored. This work evaluated Staphylococcus succinus H3 ...

Open DOI
Is Arachis pintoi associated with effective native rhizobial strains in the Central Highlands of Vietnam?
Aims: Intensive agricultural practices have led to severe soil degradation in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. Integrating legumes as cover crops is a promising strategy to restore soil fertility via biological nitrogen fixation (BNF). ...

Open DOI
Structure-activity relationship and membrane-targeting mechanisms of shikimate-related metabolites against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria
Aims: The rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has intensified the search for novel antimicrobials. In this context, shikimic acid is a versatile scaffold widely used as a precursor to bioactive compounds and drugs. This study screened ...

Open DOI
Studies on Phenylalanine Metabolism in Enhancing the ε-Polylysine-Mediated Killing Effect of Oxytetracycline-resistant Aeromonas hydrophila
Aims: Aeromonas hydrophila is a zoonotic pathogen, and its prevalence of drug resistance underscores the urgency of elucidating alternative bactericidal strategies. This study employed the oxytetracycline-resistant strain OTC-A01 to inve...

Open DOI
Data curation and cross-instrument variability influence GC-MS-based metabolite profiling of endophytic fungi associated with Moringa oleifera
Aim: This study presents an exploratory assessment of volatile and semi-volatile metabolites produced by endophytic fungi associated with Moringa oleifera using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS), emphasising metabolite occurre...

Open DOI
Rethinking host range in polyvalent bacteriophages through a stochastic-cooperative hypothesis of receptor recognition
As interest continues in bacteriophages as precision antimicrobials, understanding the molecular determinants of host range has become more important. Here, we use the term polyvalent to describe phages whose broad host recognition is as...

Open DOI
Taxon-specific oral mycobiome differences and bacterial–fungal associations in kidney transplant recipients and donors
Aims: This study characterised the pre-transplant salivary mycobiome of kidney transplant recipients and living donors and investigated cross-kingdom associations with the bacteriome. Methods and Results: Mycobiome profiling was performe...

Open DOI
A 16S rRNA reverse transcriptase-PCR method for rapid detection of intestinal enterococci in distributed drinking water
Aim: To develop and validate a real-time reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) method for the rapid and sensitive detection of intestinal enterococci in drinking water. Conventional culture methods require 24–48 h, limiting rapid response t...

DOI 10.1093/jambio/lxag246
Open DOI
Bioactive chitosan dressings functionalized with indole alkaloids suppress biofilm development and virulence traits in bacterial species relevant to wound infections
Aims: Chronic wound infections are frequently associated with biofilm-forming pathogens that impair healing and reduce the effectiveness of antimicrobial therapies. This study evaluated the antimicrobial, antibiofilm, synergistic, and an...
