DOI: 10.1007/s10441-019-09373-9
Abstract: An additional compartment of vaccinated individuals is considered in a SIS stochastic epidemic model with infection reintroduction. The quantification of the spread of the disease is modeled by a continuous time Markov chain. A well-known… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-65760-0
Abstract: Although shedding of zoonotic brucellae in milk has been demonstrated in natural hosts, these data are still missing for the standard murine infection model. We therefore analysed shedding kinetics and the niche of B. melitensis… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/15569543.2019.1614064
Abstract: Abstract This study aims to investigate the antimicrobial activity of Androctonus australis hector (Aah) scorpion venom and its nontoxic fraction. Obtained results show that venom inhibits the proliferation of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria via… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/qad.0000000000003356
Abstract: Objective: The rectal mucosa is a critical site of HIV vulnerability. We sought to identify transcriptomic features of rectal mucosal tissue prior to exposure associated with support or restriction of HIV replication. Design: Rectal tissue… read more here.

Strong Environment-Genotype Interactions Determine the Fitness Costs of Antibiotic Resistance In Vitro and in an Insect Model of Infection
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy"
DOI: 10.1128/aac.01033-20
Abstract: The acquisition of antibiotic resistance commonly imposes fitness costs, a reduction in the fitness of bacteria in the absence of drugs. These costs have been quantified primarily using in vitro experiments and a small number… read more here.
