Metabarcoding and machine learning analysis of environmental DNA in ballast water arriving to hub ports.

Environment international
While ballast water has long been linked to the global transport of invasive species, little is known about its microbiome. Herein, we used 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metabarcoding to perform the most comprehensive microbiological survey of ballast...

Albumin binding, anticancer and antibacterial properties of synthesized zero valent iron nanoparticles.

International journal of nanomedicine
BACKGROUND: Nanoparticles (NPs) have been emerging as potential players in modern medicine with clinical applications ranging from therapeutic purposes to antimicrobial agents. However, before applications in medical agents, some in vitro studies sho...

Peptide Extract from Exhibits Broad-Spectrum Antibacterial Activity.

BioMed research international
Increasing reports of infectious diseases worldwide have become a global concern in recent times. Depleted antibiotic pipelines, rapid and complex cases of antimicrobial resistance, and emergence and re-emergence of infectious disease have necessitat...

Embracing Environmental Genomics and Machine Learning for Routine Biomonitoring.

Trends in microbiology
Genomics is fast becoming a routine tool in medical diagnostics and cutting-edge biotechnologies. Yet, its use for environmental biomonitoring is still considered a futuristic ideal. Until now, environmental genomics was mainly used as a replacement ...

Seasonal Variation in Essential Oils Composition and the Biological and Pharmaceutical Protective Effects of Leaves Grown in Tunisia.

BioMed research international
This research assessed the seasonal variation of the chemical composition and antibacterial and anticholinesterase activities of essential oils extracted from leaves. The leaves organic fractions were also investigated for their biological activitie...

The latitudinal gradient in rock-inhabiting bacterial community compositions in Victoria Land, Antarctica.

The Science of the total environment
The harsh conditions in Victoria Land, Antarctica have formed a simple ecosystem dominated by microbes that use rocks as shelters to avoid environmental stressors. The area is composed of basement rocks that illustrate the history of complex deformat...

Performance of convolutional neural networks for identification of bacteria in 3D microscopy datasets.

PLoS computational biology
Three-dimensional microscopy is increasingly prevalent in biology due to the development of techniques such as multiphoton, spinning disk confocal, and light sheet fluorescence microscopies. These methods enable unprecedented studies of life at the m...

Do reductions in agricultural field drainage during the growing season impact bacterial densities and loads in small tile-fed watersheds?

Water research
Predicting bacterial levels in watersheds in response to agricultural beneficial management practices (BMPs) requires understanding the germane processes at both the watershed and field scale. Controlling subsurface tile drainage (CTD) is a highly ef...

Rapid Rule Out of Culture-Negative Bloodstream Infections by Use of a Novel Approach to Universal Detection of Bacteria and Fungi.

The journal of applied laboratory medicine
BACKGROUND: Currently it can take up to 5 days to rule out bloodstream infection. With the low yield of blood cultures (approximately 10%), a significant number of patients are potentially exposed to inappropriate therapy that can lead to adverse eve...

Computational prediction of inter-species relationships through omics data analysis and machine learning.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Antibiotic resistance and its rapid dissemination around the world threaten the efficacy of currently-used medical treatments and call for novel, innovative approaches to manage multi-drug resistant infections. Phage therapy, i.e., the us...
