Microbiota of the Mammary Gland in Wistar Rats with Chemically Induced Breast Cancer after Treatment.

We conducted a comparative study of the mammary gland microbiota in female Wistar rats and the microbiota associated with breast cancer (BC) induced by the administration of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea, after surgical treatment, photodynamic therapy (PDT), and chemotherapy (CT). Selective nutrient media and a smear-fingerprint technique were used to study the microbiota. Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Lactobacillus were found in the mammary glands of intact rats.

Study of the Dynamics of Biofilm Formation and Elastase Activity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in the Presence of Dodecanoyl-Homoserine Lactone.

We studied the effect of early accumulation of N-3-oxo-dodecanoyl-homoserine lactone on the suppression of Pseudomonas aeruginosa reproduction, biofilm formation, and elastase activity. N-3-oxo-dodecanoyl-homoserine lactone in various concentrations was added to the P. aeruginosa culture, and changes in the concentration of bacteria and the formation of biofilms were studied in dynamics.

The Infectious Bronchitis Coronavirus Pneumonia Model Presenting a Novel Insight for the SARS-CoV-2 Dissemination Route.

Infectious bronchitis (IB) of chickens is a highly contagious disease characterized by damage of the respiratory system and reproductive organs in young animals caused by a virus of the genus Gamma coronavirus. The condition of the respiratory system caused by the IB virus in chickens has many similarities with the pathology of the respiratory system caused by SARS-CoV-2 in humans. The effectiveness of virucidal drugs (Argovit, Triviron, Ecocid, and lauric acid monoglyceride) was tested on chickens inoculated with a tenfold dose of a vaccine strain based on the attenuated virus H120 against IB of chickens.

Comparative Characteristics of Discrimination of S. enterica Isolates by Phagotyping Test and Dienes Test.

We propose an original methodological approach to discrimination of newly isolated Salmonella enterica strains with the use of Dienes test. Dienes test is used for identification of P. vulgaris and P.

Antagonistic Activity of Intestinal Lactobacteria from Domestic Fowl against Clinical Isolates of Salmonella enterica.

Strain parameters of Salmonellas and Lactobacteria affecting their antagonistic activity were studied using an original method. Real-time PCR was applied for measuring the decrease in the concentration of field isolates of Salmonellas isolated from chickens in the presence of field isolates of Lactobacteria also isolated from the gastrointestinal tract of chickens and broiler chickens. Dispersion analysis showed that the probability of suppression of Salmonella growth by Lactobacteria is determined by strain parameters of both Lactobacteria and Salmonellas (p<0.
