Bacillus cytotoxicus is considered a potential emerging foodborne pathogen that has been under investigation in recent years. Most studies have focused on strains from vegetables, particularly potato products, but there is limited information on strains from other food sources. This study addresses the current research gap by investigating the genomic and phenotypic features of B.

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) and avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) are extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) that infect dogs and poultry. These agents occur both as single-species infections and, commonly, in co-infection with Enterococcus faecalis (EF); however, it is unclear how EF co-infections modulate ExPEC virulence. Genetic drivers of interspecies interactions affecting virulence were identified using macrocolony co-culture, chicken embryo co-infection experiments, and whole-genome sequence analysis of ExPEC and EF clinical isolates.

Chronic, non-healing wounds are a leading cause of prolonged patient morbidity and mortality due to biofilm- associated, polymicrobial infections. and are the most frequently co-isolated pathogens from chronic wound infections. Competitive interactions between these pathogens contribute to enhanced virulence, persistence, and antimicrobial tolerance.

Many shotgun proteomics experiments are negatively influenced by highly abundant proteins, such as those measuring residual host cell proteins (HCP) amidst highly abundant recombinant biotherapeutic or plasma proteins amidst albumin and immunoglobulins. While western blotting and ELISAs can reveal the presence of specific low abundance proteins from highly abundant background proteins, mass spectrometry approaches are required to define the low abundance protein composition in these scenarios. The challenge in detecting low abundance proteins in a high protein background by standard shotgun approaches is that spectra are often not triggered on their peptides in data dependent acquisition methods but rather on the highly abundant background peptides.
