In this study a total of 29 Bacillus species isolated from the soil was analyzed using the agar diffusion method in terms of their general inhibition effects to some test bacteria. It has been found that isolates are effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria whereas their extensive inhibition effect is particularly against gram-positive bacteria. On the other hand, B. cereus M15 strain has an inhibitory effect against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Furthermore some isolates are more effective against test bacteria when compared to some antibiotics.

Background: Point of need diagnostics provide efficient testing capability for remote or austere locations, decreasing the time to answer by minimizing travel or sample transport requirements. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is an appealing technology for point-of-need diagnostics due to its rapid analysis time and minimal instrumentation requirements.
Methods: Here, we designed and optimized nine LAMP assays that are sensitive and specific to targeted bacterial select agents including Bacillus anthracis, Francisella tularensis, Yersinia pestis, and Brucella spp.

is a ubiquitous environmental fungus, and several osteomyelitis cases have been reported in recent years. We present the case of a woman in her 70s who sustained a comminuted open ankle fracture, with garden soil contamination of the wound, which was treated according to orthoplastic principles. The patient developed osteomyelitis 6 months postsurgery.

Enhanced microbial remediation represents a promising technique for the removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). However, high-efficiency remediation agents remain limited, including microbial resources and remediation materials. In this study, a novel strain of Pseudomonas xizangensis S4 was isolated from plateau lake sediment, exhibiting a fluoranthene degradation rate of 41.

Among emerging pollutants, residuals of phenoxy herbicides, including 2-chloro-4-methylphenoxy acid (MCPA), are frequently detected in non-targeted areas. MCPA can be removed from environmental matrices using biological remediation methods including endophyte-assisted phytoremediation. The interactions between selected plants excreting to the rhizosphere plant secondary metabolites (PSMs) and plant-associated bacteria (incl.
