Abstract Background Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) detects and mitigates pathogen outbreaks by evaluating conditions in a specific community. Between January 2019 September 2022, Escherichia coli, Citrobacter freundii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enterica comprised about one-third of the local health department’s reported healthcare-associated infections. This pilot study attempted to detect quantitatively assess prevalence these bacterial pathogens order report public data state...

Resistance to carbapenems in human pathogens is a growing clinical and public health concern. The are an antimicrobial class considered last-resort, they used treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant Enterobacterales, classified the World Health Organization as 'High Priority Critically Important Antimicrobials'. presence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CREs) animal-origin concern because targeted studies Canadian retail seafood revealed carbapenem resistance small number...

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection of a host cell begins with fusion the HIV and membranes is mediated by gp41 protein, single-pass integral membrane protein HIV. The 175 N-terminal residues make up ectodomain that lies outside virus. This work describes production characterization an construct containing 154 residues, including peptide (FP) binds to target membranes. Fgp41 sequence was derived from one African clade A strains HIV-1 have been less studied than European/North...
