Cronobacter sakazakii (Cs) is a typical foodborne bacterium that infect powdered infant formula (PIF) worldwide. In this study, a recombinant antimicrobial peptide, branded as Funme peptide (FP)was applied to protect PIF from Cs contamination. The re...
BACKGROUND: Biomedical event extraction is a crucial task in biomedical text mining. As the primary forum for international evaluation of different biomedical event extraction technologies, BioNLP Shared Task represents a trend in biomedical text min...
Biodiversity monitoring is the standard for environmental impact assessment of anthropogenic activities. Several recent studies showed that high-throughput amplicon sequencing of environmental DNA (eDNA metabarcoding) could overcome many limitations ...
In the past decade, versatile micro- and nanosized machines have emerged as active agents for large-scale detoxification, sensing, microfabrication, and many other promising applications. Micromachines have also been envisioned as the next advancemen...
Identification of microorganisms by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy is known as a promising alternative to conventional identification techniques in clinical, food, and environmental microbiology. In this study we demonstrate the appl...
BACKGROUND: An open challenge in translational bioinformatics is the analysis of sequenced metagenomes from various environmental samples. Of course, several studies demonstrated the 16S ribosomal RNA could be considered as a barcode for bacteria cla...
BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been a worldwide public health concern. Current widespread AMR pollution has posed a big challenge in accurately disentangling source-sink relationship, which has been further confounded by point and non...
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) -based identification of bacteria and fungi significantly changed the diagnostic process in clinical microbiology. We describe here a novel technique for bact...
