We describe systemic infection by in a mona monkey () on the basis of microbiologic, molecular genetic, and histologic data. The same strain of , as determined by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, was isolated in pure culture from the primate’s brain, liver, spleen, and intestine. Histologic lesions showed inflammatory infiltrates mainly composed of neutrophils, indicating an acute septicemic process.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are well-known for its expertise in synthesizing exopolysaccharides (EPS), which are linked to significant health benefits, such as its prebiotic effects and ability to modulate the immune system. However, the synthesis of EPS is hindered by low yields. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of co-cultivation on EPS output by Weissella confusa XG-3 when paired with Candida shehatae.

The use of lactic acid bacteria for developing functional foods is increasing for their ability to synthesize beneficial metabolites such as vitamin B (riboflavin, RF) and postbiotic compounds. Here, the spontaneous mutant FS54 B2 was isolated by treatment of the dextran-producing FS54 strain with roseoflavin. FS54 B2 overproduced RF (4.

Background: is a member of the lactic acid bacterium group commonly found in many salt-fermented foods. Strains of isolated from high-salinity environments have been shown to tolerate salt stress to some extent. However, the specific responses and mechanisms of under salt stress are not fully understood.

Introduction: The moisture content of corn kernels at harvest in China is relatively high, and wet storage effectively preserves high-moisture corn kernels. However, ensuring effective fermentation during storage is crucial.
Methods: To address this, we systematically investigated the variations in fermentation quality, mycotoxin concentrations, and microbial community composition under different additive treatments.

Mandarin fish () fed with an artificial diet is progressively gaining popularity, which is important for reducing product prices and resource consumption. However, food is the decisive factor of intestinal microbes, and the profound effects of change in their feeding habit on intestinal microbes of mandarin fish have not been revealed. In the present study, live bait fish and artificial diet were used to feed mandarin fish for 8 weeks to study the effect of different feeding habits on the histology, microbiota structure and dominant bacteria of gut in mandarin fish.
