Scientists are transforming Toxoplasma Gondii from an Adversary into an Ally

An international team of neurobiologists has developed a way to use a single-celled parasite Toxoplasma Gondii to deliver therapeutic proteins directly into brain cells. In this study published in Nature Microbiology, the researchers addressed the challenge of the brain’s selective permeability, which restricts treatment options for neurological conditions.

Researchers at the Center for Disease Control & Prevention Characterized the Heterogeneity of Cyclospora

A recent study funded by AMD and conducted by the CDC’s Division of Parasitic Diseases and Malaria revealed that Cyclospora cayetanensis is actually comprised of at least three distinct yet closely related single-celled organisms. Cyclosporiasis, a serious intestinal illness caused by the parasite Cyclospora cayetanensis, is linked to contaminated fresh fruits like raspberries.

Health Canada Releases New Guidelines for Biocides to Aid Compliance with the Food and Drugs Act and Biocides Regulations

The biocides guidance applies to products defined as biocides under regulations, specifically drugs designed to destroy or inactivate microorganisms or control their number on non-living, non-liquid surfaces. To qualify as a biocide and be eligible for market authorization, a product must achieve a minimum efficacy level of 99.9% (3 log10) reduction in microorganisms.

Survival of Mpox Viruses in the Air and on Surfaces

Mpox virus, also known as the Monkeypox virus, is an enveloped double-stranded DNA virus classified within the Orthopoxvirus genus of the Poxviridae family. Monkeypox infection causes a milder illness compared to smallpox, consisting of an influenza-like prodrome followed by a distinctive vesiculopustular rash. Although Mpox primarily spread through close human contact, it can also be transmitted from contaminated surfaces and via indoor air.

Microbial Contaminants in Plant-Based Ingredients with prevalence of spore-forming microbes: Insights from a Comprehensive Study

A recent collaborative effort between NIZO Food Research and Wageningen University and Research (WUR) has shed light on the presence of microbial contaminants within 88 diverse plant-based ingredients used in dairy alternatives. The study identified a significant variation in the level of contamination, with a worrying prevalence of spore-forming microbes in many samples.
