MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY AND B-CELL EPITOPE MAPPING OF THE VP7 PROTEIN IN BLUETONGUE VIRUS


Factors influencing initial bacterial adhesion to antifouling surfaces studied by single-cell force spectroscopy

Summary: Biofilm formation, a major concern for healthcare systems, is initiated when bacteria adhere to surfaces.Escherichia coli adhesion is mediated by appendages, including type-1 fimbriae and curli amyloid fibers.Antifouling surfaces prevent the adhesion of bacteria to galaxy harmony nc combat biofilm formation.Here, we used single-cell force-

A Multi-Country Cross-Sectional Study of Vaginal Carriage of Group B Streptococci (GBS) and Escherichia coli in Resource-Poor Settings: Prevalences and Risk Factors.

One million neonates die each year in low- and middle-income countries because of neonatal sepsis; group B Streptococcus (GBS) and Escherichia coli are the leading causes.In sub-Saharan Africa, epidemiological data on vaginal GBS and E.coli carriage, a prerequisite for GBS and E.coli neonatal sepsis, respectively, are scarce but necessary to design
