DOI: 10.2147/idr.s405537
Abstract: Introduction Anesthesiologists are exposed to the risk of infection from various secretions or droplets from the respiratory tract of patients. We aimed to determine bacterial exposure to anesthesiologists’ faces during endotracheal intubation and extubation. Methods… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.848128
Abstract: Commercially available ELISAs for zonulin (pre-haptoglobin 2), a protein with tight junction regulatory activity in the epithelia, were recently shown to recognize other proteins that are structurally and functionally related to zonulin, termed zonulin family… read more here.
