Bacterial biofilms play a key role in the pathogenesis of major oral diseases. Nanoparticles open new paths for drug delivery in complex structures such as biofilms. This study evaluated the antimicrobial effect of zein nanoparticles containing anacardic acid (AA) extracted from cashew shells of Anacardium occidentale on in vitro Streptococcus muta...

This work covers soymilk fermentation by starter and probiotic cultures and explores the influence of cooling protocol on cell viability, organic acid production, sugar consumption, fatty acid profile, and cell survival to in vitro gastrointestinal stress. After fermentation at 37 °C by mono- or co-cultures of Streptococcus thermophilus (St), Lacto...

Caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) is an infectious disease caused by Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis in small ruminants and is characterized by the development of granulomas in the lymph nodes, spleen, liver, and lungs. Although little is known about the host-pathogen relationship of this bacterium, it was previously reported that the pathogen's lipid...

The aim of this work was to gain a more comprehensive and perspicacious view of the endophytic diazotrophic community (EDC) of tomato plant bacteria and assess the effects of chemical fertilization and the plant phenologic stage on the status of those microbes. When the EDC of stem and roots from tomato plants grown in a greenhouse with and without...

Using molecular and whole-genome sequencing tools, we investigated colistin-resistant Escherichia coli isolates from wild sea lions. Two unrelated E. coli colistin-resistant isolates, ST8259 and ST4218, were identified, both belonging to the B2 phylogroup and different serotypes. Polymorphisms in PmrA, PmrB, and PhoQ proteins were identified, and t...

This study proposed that phage-enriched artemia could be a useful tool for transferring phage into the cultured fish (larvae or adult) as a feed, and introduce mode of phage administration and its safety in concern of tissue adaptation for efficient phage therapy in aquatic animals. First, whether Edwardsiella tarda phage (ETP-1) could attach or in...

In the recent years, the epidemiology of invasive fungal infections (IFIs) has changed worldwide. This is remarkably noticed with the significant increase in high-risk populations. Although surveillance of such infections is essential, data in the Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) region remain scarce. In this paper, we reviewed the existing ...

In this study, we described the comparison among pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), ribotyping, and PCR-ribotyping methods for subtyping Salmonella Enteritidis isolated from an industrial chicken production chain. One hundred and eight S. Enteritidis were isolated at all stages of poultry meat processi...

Plant growth-promoting bacteria such as Streptomyces are an attractive alternative for increasing the sustainability of agricultural systems. In this study, Streptomyces isolates obtained from rhizosphere soil of plants in the family Fabaceae were characterized for their plant growth-promoting traits, including the production of siderophores, 1-ami...

An emergence of a novel coronavirus, causative agent of COVID19, named as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), occurred due to cross-species transmission. Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses able to infect a great number of hosts. Entrance of SARS-CoV-2 depends on the surface (S) protein interaction with host ACE2 p...
