The ability of a host plant to associate with different symbiotic partners affects ectomycorrhizal functioning
(FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2019-05-17)Some plants that associate with ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi are also able to simultaneously establish symbiosis with other types of partners. The presence of alternative partners that may provide similar ... -
High prevalence and diversity of extended-spectrum β-lactamase and emergence of OXA-48 producing Enterobacterales in wildlife in Catalonia
(PLoS ONE, 2019-08-05)Most of the studies focused on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) performed in wildlife describe Escherichia coli as the principal indicator of the selective pressure. In the present study, several species ... -
Infectious phage particles packaging antibiotic resistance genes found in meat products and chicken feces
(Scientific Reports, 2019-09-16)Bacteriophages can package part of their host's genetic material, including antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), contributing to a rapid dissemination of resistances among bacteria. Phage particles ... -
Comparative analysis of the fecal microbiota from different species of domesticated and wild suids
(Scientific Reports, 2019-09-20)Most of the microorganisms living in a symbiotic relationship in different animal body sites (microbiota) reside in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Several studies have shown that the microbiota is ... -
Linking stocking densities and feeding strategies with social and individual stress responses on gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata)
(Physiology and Behavior, 2019-10-24)Intensive aquaculture and poor management practices can cause stress and compromise welfare of farmed fish. This study aimed to assess the potential links between stocking densities and feeding methods ... -
Bayesian estimation of qPCR and bacterial culture accuracy for detection of bovine coagulase‐negative staphylococci from milk and teat apex at different test cut‐off points
(Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2019-05-11)Aim:To primarily estimate the sensitivity (Se) and specificity (Sp) of thecommercially available Mastit4 quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay and bacterialculture (BC) for diagnosis of intramammary infections ... -
Magnetic beads in marine toxin detection: A review
(Magnetochemistry, 2019-11-12)Due to the expanding occurrence of marine toxins, and their potential impact on human health, there is an increased need for tools for their rapid and efficient detection. We give an overview of the use ... -
Agricultural impacts on streams near Nitrate Vulnerable Zones: A case study in the Ebro basin, Northern Spain
(PLoS ONE, 2019-11-08)Agricultural intensification during the last century has caused river degradation across Europe. From the wide range of stressors derived from agricultural activities that impact rivers, diffuse ... -
In vivo safety evaluation of the Clostridium butyricum MIYAIRI 588 strain in broilers, piglets, and turkeys
(Toxicology Research and Application, 2019-02-11)Clostridium butyricum MIYAIRI 588 (CBM 588) is a nonpathogenic, anaerobic, gram-positive bacillus characterized by the production of short-chain fatty acids, including butyrate. The safety and tolerance ... -
Startup strategy for nitrogen removal via nitrite in a BAF system
(Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering, 2018-10-26)A biological aerated filter (BAF) pilot plant consisting of two reactors (aerobic and anoxic one) was used to determine a strategy to remove nitrogen via nitrite. RNA/DNA analysis was performed to assess ... -
Development of a modified plug-flow anaerobic digester for biogas production from animal manures
(Energies, 2019-07-08)Traditional plug-flow anaerobic reactors (PFRs) are characterized by lacking a mixing system and operating at high total solid concentrations, which limits their applicability for several kinds of ... -
