The investigation of bacterial pathogens of the red macroalga gracilaria gracilis and its response to bacterial infection
… the causes of these collapses is thought to be bacterial disease about which there is very little known. The bacterial pathogens of this macroalga were thus investigated to determine the nature of disease occurrence and how G. gracilis responds to such infections. A large number of culturable …

Investigating how bat ectoparasites influence the skin microbiome diversity and composition in Washington State bats
… culturing methods, we identified 20 species of culturable bacteria from bat skin with four isolates belonging to genera known to possess antifungal properties. These isolates could be used to develop probiotic therapies for local colonies to prevent and treat WNS in the future.</p>

EARLY-LIFE EXPOSURES TO SPECIFIC COMMENSAL MICROBES TRAIN THE IMMUNE SYSTEM AND PREVENT TYPE 1 DIABETES
… find that a rationally-designed consortium of 9 culturable bacteria (PedsCom) that dominate the early-life microbiome of diabetes-protected NOD/Eα16 mice confers protection from developing type 1 diabetes (T1D) in diabetes-susceptible NOD mice. PedsCom colonization induces weaning-associated …

Density-shift Immunomagnetic Separation for Pathogen Retrieval from Complex Media
In industries like food production, pathogenic bacteria detection is required for producers to confidently send products to market without the risk of costly product recalls. However, rapid, reliable detection remains an unmet need. Conventional methods for detecting bacteria rely on time-consuming …

The role of enteric bacteria in the Abalone, Haliotis Midae
The role of bacteria in the digestive tract of the abalone Haliotis midae was examined to determine whether bacteria aid hydrolysis of polysaccharides present in seaweeds which farmed abalone consume. The enteric bacteria were enumerated using culturable and total (DAPI) counts. The numbers of …

Molecular microbial ecology of hospital ward environments.
… focused on outbreaks and the role of specific culturable pathogens. There is still considerable debate about the role of the environment and the importance of cleaning, therefore more comprehensive culture-independent microbial ecology studies are required.This study aimed to utilise …

Diversidade de bactérias endofíticas em frutos de café
… para grupos de bactérias de três filos, Proteobacteria classes, α, β e γ, Firmicutes e Actinobacteria, sendo os produtos do Nested-PCR analisados por eletroforese em gel de gradiente desnaturante (DGGE). Nas amostras de café cereja a altitudes entre 676 até 1.187 m, as densidades de endofíticas …

Environmental and biological drivers of bacterial and antimicrobial resistance carriage by house flies (Musca domestica L.)
… of pathogenic and antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria between environments visited for these reproductive and trophic needs. Confined cattle operations serve as an optimal environment to study fly-mediated pathogen and AMR acquisition, transmission and persistence due to the high antibiotic …

Microorganisms associated with ulva grown in abalone effluent water: implications for biosecurity
… However, studies concerning the epiphytic bacterial communities present on macroalgae grown in effluent systems are scarce, and as a result several commercial farmers have become sceptical about utilising effluent grown Ulva as feed. This study addresses the biosecurity implications …

Microbiome associated with Ulva lacinulata and seawater in an integrated abalone (Haliotis midae)–Ulva system with partial recirculation
… practise, this study aimed to characterise the bacterial, fungal, and oomycete communities associated with seawater and Ulva in an integrated abalone-Ulva farm with 50% water recirculation. The study was conducted on a commercial abalone farm along the South-Western Cape coast of South Africa. …
