A Gram-positive, endospore-forming, lactic acid bacterium was isolated from spoiled orange juice. The organism, strain QC81-06(T), grew microaerobically or anaerobically at 30-45 degrees C (optimum 35 degrees C) and pH 3.5-5.5 (optimum pH 4.5), and produced acid from various sugars. D-Lactic acid was produced. It contained menaquinone-7 as the major isoprenoid quinone. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 47.5 mol%. The predominant cellular fatty acids of the strain were iso-C(16 : 0), anteiso-C(15 : 0) and anteiso-C(17 : 0). Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene and gyrB gene (DNA gyrase B subunit gene) revealed that strain QC81-06(T) clustered with Sporolactobacillus species but the strain was clearly distinct from other Sporolactobacillus species with significant bootstrap values. The levels of 16S rRNA gene and gyrB gene sequence similarities between strain QC81-06(T) and the other strains of the cluster were 96.0-97.0 % and 75.1-77.2 %, respectively. On the basis of these results, strain QC81-06(T) should be classified as a novel Sporolactobacillus species for which the name Sporolactobacillus putidus is proposed. The type strain is strain QC81-06(T) (=DSM 21265(T)=JCM 15325(T)).

Psychosocial risks and mental health of preschool care providers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: a cross-sectional study.

BMC Psychol

January 2025

Health Department of Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya, Health office of Lembah Pantai District, Ministry of Health, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Background: Child maltreatment in daycare is a public health issue. As childcare is stressful, high care provider negativity independently predicts more internalizing behaviour problems, affecting children's psycho-neurological development. This study aimed to determine psychosocial factors associated with the mental health of preschool care providers in Kuala Lumpur.

Swine acute diarrhea syndrome coronavirus (SADS-CoV) is a novel porcine coronavirus that was recently identified in southern China in 2017. At present, there is a lack of nationwide epidemiological investigations of the newly emerged SADS-CoV. Because Vietnam is geographically adjacent to southern China, many diseases have spread from China to Vietnam.

Background: In USA, total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) ranks amongst the top five surgeries that require hospitalization. As a result, the healthcare system in USA could face a considerable financial strain due to the emergence of subsequent pulmonary problems. This study aimed to conduct a thorough examination of the prevalence, influential factors and medical importance of pulmonary complications, with emphasis on pneumonia, respiratory failure and pulmonary embolism (PE) following total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) procedures in USA.

Background: Gastrointestinal diseases in weaned piglets are a frequent cause of high morbidity and mortality in domestic pigs. The use of antibiotics is problematic due to increasing antibiotic resistance in bacterial populations, for which reason the use of suitable probiotics is highly recommended to maintain animal health and welfare.

Results: In this study, 57 strains of biologically safe lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and bifidobacteria originating from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of pigs were identified and characterized in terms of their probiotic properties for potential use in weaned piglets.
