The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of extracellular death factor (EDF) derived from Escherichia coli in the induction of programmed cell death (PCD) in methicillin-resistant and -susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA and MSSA). The confirmation of bacterial strains as well as the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) test were performed according to CLSI, 2022. The extraction and efficacy determination of EDF as well as the CFU assessment were done.

Scientists have recently conducted research showing that disturbances in the gut bacterial community can lead to a decrease in some metabolites and, consequently, to behaviors such as depression. Exposure to stressors dropped the relative abundance of bacteria in the genus while soaring the relative abundance of bacteria in the genus , , , and Oscillibacter, were also reduced in people with depression.
