[Atypical non-Typhi Salmonella enterica bacteremia, lactose-positive, lysine decarboxylase-negative].

We describe here the first isolation in Argentina of a lactose-fermenting and lysine decarboxylase-negative non-Typhi Salmonella enterica from a blood culture of a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus. The microorganism was identified as S. enterica (score: 2.

Rapid discrimination of Salmonella Enteritidis from other serovars with MALDI-TOF MS in Argentina.

Salmonella spp. is one of the most important zoonotic pathogens that causes foodborne diseases. It is divided into two species (Salmonella bongori and Salmonella enterica) including around 2600 serovars, being S.

Factors influencing fumonisin B contamination in maize: insights from two production regions in Costa Rica.

Maize (Zea mays L.) is an important cereal crop worldwide. Contaminated maize kernels pose a significant mycotoxin exposure risk for humans in Latin America.

Use of isotopic (C, Cl) and molecular biology tools to assess biodegradation in a source area of chlorinated ethenes after biostimulation with Emulsified Vegetable Oil (EVO).

Enhanced In Situ Bioremediation (EISB) using Emulsified Vegetable Oil (EVO) as a long-term electron donor has gained prominence for the treatment of groundwater contaminated with chlorinated ethenes (CEs). This study explores the potential of isotopic and molecular biology tools (MBT) to investigate the CEs (PCE, TCE and cis-DCE) bioremediation using EVO in a contaminated site. A multiple approach using C and Cl-CSIA, quantification of Dehalococcoides (Dhc) and specific reductive dechlorination (RD) gene population, and hydrochemical data in microcosm experiments and field samples was applied.
