Nowadays, the misuse and overuse of antibiotics in livestock production leads to appearance antibiotic resistant strains that promotes use probiotics feed minimise/replace consumption. Among them, Bacilli are common supplements for effectiveness health benefits. However, there is a growing concern about development resistance transfer genes among bacteria. Thus, European Food Safety Authority (...

Abstract Honey stores of Apis mellifera colonies are replaced with sugar water by beekeepers, which may result in malnutrition. Nutritional supplements have been developed, but the importance bacterial probiotics and vitamins is poorly understood. Given that supplementary feeding enhance worker weight longevity, this might suggest a feasible approach to mitigate winter colony losses. Here, we c...

PURPOSE To compare the rapid colorimetric nitrate reductase based antibiotic susceptibility (CONRAS) test performed on Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates with the conventional method i.e, the proportion method. METHODS One hundred clinical isolates of M. tuberculosis were tested for susceptibility to isoniazid (INH) and rifampicin (RIF) by the conventional proportion method and CONRAS in Mid...

A search of the current scientific literature yields a limited number of studies that describe the use of Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic imaging for the analysis of forensic casework, which is likely due to the fact that these instruments are fairly new commodities to the field of analytical chemistry and are therefore not yet commonplace in forensic laboratories. This report ...
