Infection with BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a common opportunistic infection after kidney transplantation (KT) and may affect graft function. We aimed to determine the incidence, risk factors, and clinical outcomes of BKPyV DNAemia in a prospective coh...
This paper's purpose was to evaluate the interaction between three imidazole derivatives, (2-methyl-1-imidazol-1-yl)methanol (SAM3), 1,1'-methanediylbis(1-benzimidazole (AM5) and (1-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)methanol 1-hydroxymethylbenzimidazole (SAM5) o...
Recent research has demonstrated the potential of fecal microbiome analysis using machine learning (ML) in the diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), mainly Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). This study employed the sparse part...
Methanethiol (MeSH) and dimethyl sulfide (DMS) are important volatile organic sulfur compounds involved in atmospheric chemistry and climate regulation. However, little is known about the metabolism of these compounds in the ubiquitous marine vibrios...
Methicillin-resistant (MRSA) is a major pathogen that causes serious infections in healthcare facilities and in communities. The purpose of this study was to investigate MRSA isolates obtained in a tertiary hospital in Kuwait to assess their antibio...
In a recent effort to mitigate harm from human pathogens, many biosynthetic pathways have been extensively evaluated for their ability to inhibit pathogen growth and to determine drug targets. One of the important products/targets of such pathways is...
This study investigated the antibacterial, resistance modulation, biofilm inhibition, and efflux pump inhibition potentials of stem extract and its constituents. The antimicrobial activity was investigated by the high-throughput spot culture growth ...
