Introduction This article is the third part of the series of papers on quantization of Lie bial-gebras which we started in 1995. However, its object of study is much less general than in the previous two parts. While in the rst and second paper we deal with an arbitrary Lie bialgebra, here we study Lie bialgebras of g-valued functions on a punctured rational or elliptic curve, where g is a nite...

Nontyphoid salmonellae are major causes of foodborne infection worldwide. They still seriously affect human health, causing morbidity and mortality. They induce severe salmonellosis, even in modestly immunocompromised hosts, resulting in bacteremic spread, focal infection, and persistence in deep sites, including the en-dovascular region. Approximately 5% of individuals with gastrointestinal il...

Editorials 558 Given the magnitude and severity of the threat of antimicrobial resistance, it is a sign of progress that Member States of the World Health Organization (WHO) are now developing national action plans in response to WHO's Global action plan on antimicrobial resistance. 1 To accelerate these efforts, in April 2016 the Wellcome Trust held an interdisci-plinary international summit, ...

Genome Sequencing of Pathogenic Rhodococcus spp. To the Editor: Infections caused by non-equi Rhodococcus spp. are uncommon but can cause severe pneumonia and bloodstream infections with sepsis (1–4). Increasing prevalence of immune-compromising illnesses and use of immunosuppres-sive agents might contribute to re-emergence of these pathogens (5,6). Rhodococci infections may go undi-agnosed or ...

Due to their diverse metabolic potentials and established manipulation techniques, microbes are considered to be excellent materials for biotechnology. Pure cultures of microbes are exploited in industrial processes to produce alcohols, organic acids, and polymeric materials (2). Furthermore, human society has a long history of using mixed microbial cultures to produce fermented foods (8). Natu...

F ollowing the serendipitous discovery of penicillin in 1928 and streptomycin in 1943, the pharmaceutical industry has been screening thousands of soil samples for antimicrobial agents produced by inhabitant microbes. Chloramphenicol, clavulanic acid, erythromycin, gentamicin, rifampin, teicho-planin, tetracycline, and vancomycin represent only a few products of this spectacularly successful ef...

Editorials 439 From the earliest days of antibiotics, scientists have warned that without careful management of the way these powerful drugs are used, pathogens could quickly develop defences against them. Today, an-timicrobial resistance is spreading faster than ever, threatening the effectiveness of many of our most important weapons against infections. 1 Convened by the Foreign Policy and Gl...
