Efficacy and Safety of Alternative Treatments for the Prevention of Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections
AbstractPurpose of ReviewIn this review, we discuss the current literature available to patients and providers regarding alternative and complementary treatments for the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infections. These therapies include cranberry products, D-mannose, hyaluronic acid, vitamins C and D, probiotics, herbal medicine, behavioral modifications, and acupuncture.Recent FindingsNumerous non-antimicrobial as well as non-pharmacologic preventative strategies are under investigation, but studies have been largely limited to observational studies or small randomized trials. Investigations into over-the-counter n...

Molecules, Vol. 27, Pages 7466: Evidence of the Beneficial Effects of Ursolic Acid against Lung Cancer
siani Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Despite current treatment approaches that include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and immunotherapies, lung cancer accounted for 1.79 million deaths worldwide in 2020, emphasizing the urgent need to find novel agents and approaches for more effective treatment. Traditionally, chemicals derived from plants, such as paclitaxel a nd docetaxel, have been used in cancer treatment, and in recent years, research has focused on finding other plant-derived chemicals that can be used in the fight against lung cancer. Ursolic acid is a polyphenol found in ...

Candida krusei is the major contaminant of ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis membranes used for cranberry juice production
In this study, the microbial fouling layers of UF and RO membranes from a Canadian cranberry juice processing plant were characterized. Unlike the microbiota found in cranberry juice, which is dominated by Bacillus sp. and other bacteria, both UF and RO membranes were mainly colonized by several strains of the yeast Candida krusei. A variation in bacterial and yeasts count was observed between tubular UF and spiral-wound RO membranes, and the analysis of the spatial distribution highlighted the homogeneity of the contamination across each membrane. Surprisingly, RO membranes had a higher level of contamination when compare...
