Screening of antibiogram, virulence factors, and biofilm production of and the bio-control role of some probiotics as alternative antibiotics.

Background: Food safety is a serious challenge in the face of increasing population and diminishing resources. is a critical foodborne pathogen characterized by its capability to secret a diverse range of heat-resistant enterotoxins. Antibiotic usage in dairy herds resulted in the occurrence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) patterns among bacterial species, which were consequently transmitted to humans via dairy products.

GC-MS analysis and the effect of topical application of essential oils of Pinus canariensis C.Sm., Cupressus lusitanica Mill. and Cupressus arizonica Greene aerial parts in Imiquimod-Induced Psoriasis in Mice.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Traditionally, Coniferous plants, in particular Pinus and Cupressus species, have been used in the treatment of burns, skin infections, and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis.

Aim Of The Study: A comparative study between essential oils (EOs) extracted from aerial parts of three coniferous plants: Pinus canariensis C.Sm.

Phytochemical and In-Vivo Anti-Arthritic Significance of Baker in Combined Therapy with Methotrexate in Adjuvant-Induced Arthritis in Rats.

Unlike other widely known species used for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, this species suffers from a lack of sufficient studies on its biological and chemical characters. This is what drove us to perform this work to evaluate the in vivo anti-arthritic potential of its leaf ethanolic extract. The in vivo anti-arthritic activity of the leaf ethanolic extract at 100 and 200 mg/kg/day b.

Assessment of a regulatory sanitization process in Egyptian dairy plants in regard to the adherence of some food-borne pathogens and their biofilms.

Food-borne pathogens may develop certain strategies that enable them to defy harsh conditions such as chemical sanitization. Biofilm formation represents a prominent one among those adopted strategies, by which food-borne pathogens protect themselves against external threats. Thus, bacterial biofilm is considered as a major hazard for safe food production.
