Professor David Pearce, a renowned microbiologist, has spent nearly 30 years studying polar regions. He began his career with the British Antarctic Survey before joining the University of Northumbria in Newcastle a decade ago. In 2016, Pr. Pearce embarked on his first project with the Coriolis µ, a biological air sampler designed for quality control […]

In-depth investigation into high pathogenicity avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) from clade 2.3.4.4b within the goose/Guangdong/1996 (Gs/GD) H5 lineage reveals significant challenges for commercial duck populations. Ducks, acting as asymptomatic carriers, pose a considerable challenge in controlling the virus’s spread. While recent studies highlight HPAIV replication in feather follicles, the precise contribution of feathers to viral dissemination remains uncertain.

Bacteria are present in large numbers in livestock buildings, and can threaten animal and public health. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major concern worldwide, and national measures based on the “One Health” approach are being implemented in many countries.

ArabLab is an internationally recognised exhibition in the field of laboratory technology and analysis, ranking among the most important events in its industry worldwide.

Exposure to pathogenic airborne microorganisms has been associated with several human diseases. Given the role and characteristics of bioaerosols in mediating health outcomes, it is critical to determine the concentrations, diversity, and composition of bioaerosols in ambient air. The prevalence of multi-drug resistant bacteria is another dimension of important health issues related to bioaerosols. In […]

Legionellosis in healthcare facilities: state of the art in control and prevention in Italy   Legionella pneumophila is an intracellular bacteria responsible for causing Legionnaires’ disease, a severe form of pneumonia. Prompt identification, diagnosis, and treatment are essential to manage this potentially life-threatening infection. Nosocomial water systems are often contaminated by Legionella. Active, well-planned clinical […]

Atmospheric boundary level (ABL) is the lowest part of the atmosphere that is highly influenced by its contact with the surface of the planet. The diverse microorganisms found in the ABL are continuously aerosolized and dispersed from surface sources. Knowledge of microbial diversity in the ABL is crucial as it can be potentially dangerous for […]
