Rutin Synergizes with Colistin to Eradicate Salmonellosis in Mice by Enhancing the Efficacy and Reducing the Toxicity.

The wide dissemination of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria poses a significant global health and security concern. As developing new antibiotics is generally costly, fastidious, and time-consuming, there is an urgent need for alternative therapeutic strategies to address the gap in antibiotic discovery void. This study aimed to investigate the activity of colistin (CS) in combination with a natural product, rutin (RT), to combat against Typhimurium ( Tm) in vitro and in vivo.

[Effects of the Transformation from Natural Alpine Grassland to Mixed Artificial Grassland on the Characteristics of Soil Microbial Community].

This study aimed to analyze the effects of the transformation from natural alpine grassland (NAG) to mixed artificial grassland (MAG) on the characteristics of soil microbial community. We used Illumina Miseq high-throughput sequencing technology to investigate the soil microbial community of natural grassland and mixed artificial grassland. The results showed that plant diversity and the content of soil organic matter decreased significantly from NAG to MAG.
