An Overview on Nocardiopsis Species Originating From North African Biotopes as a Promising Source of Bioactive Compounds and In Silico Genome Mining Analysis of Three Sequenced Genomes.

Actinobacteria are renowned for their prolific production of diverse bioactive secondary metabolites. In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on exploring "rare" genera within this phylum for biodiscovery purposes, notably the Nocardiopsis genus, which will be the subject of the present study. Recognizing the absence of articles describing the research process of finding bioactive molecules from the genus Nocardiopsis in North African environments.

Prevalence of AmpC, ESBL, and colistin resistance genes in Enterobacterales isolated from ready-to-eat food in Algeria.

Antimicrobial resistance among bacteria present in ready-to-eat foods is an emerging concern. Hence, this study investigated the presence of extended-spectrum and AmpC β-lactamases (ESBL/AmpC)-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) and the dissemination of mcr-1 in ESBL-E from ready-to-eat food samples (RTE) in Algeria. RTE food samples (n = 204) were aseptically collected and selectively cultured using MacConkey agar.

The effectiveness of lucid dreaming therapy in patients with nightmares: A systematic review.

Objectives: Nightmares can be defined as "an unpleasant dream with anxiety and oppression". They represent a symptom possibly leading to serious psychiatric and physical consequences. It occurs to 2% to 8% of the general population.

Integrated Metabolomic, Molecular Networking, and Genome Mining Analyses Uncover Novel Angucyclines From sp. RO-S4 Strain Isolated From Bejaia Bay, Algeria.

Multi-omic approaches have recently made big strides toward the effective exploration of microorganisms, accelerating the discovery of new bioactive compounds. We combined metabolomic, molecular networking, and genomic-based approaches to investigate the metabolic potential of the sp. RO-S4 strain isolated from the polluted waters of Bejaia Bay in Algeria.

Selective isolation, antimicrobial screening and phylogenetic diversity of marine actinomycetes derived from the Coast of Bejaia City (Algeria), a polluted and microbiologically unexplored environment.

Aims: The current study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of actinomycetes in the Coast of Bejaia City using selective isolation, as well as their bioactivity and phylogenitic diversity.

Methods And Results: Different selective media and methods were used, leading to the isolation of 103 actinomycete strains. The number of strains was influenced by isolation procedures and their interactions based on a three-way ANOVA and a post hoc Tukey test, which revealed that using M2 medium, dilution of samples followed by moderate heat treatment, and sampling at 10-20 m yielded the highest numbers of actinomycetes.
