Prevalence of pathogens in honey bee colonies and association with clinical signs in southwestern Quebec, Canada
Can J Vet Res. 2024 Apr;88(2):45-54.ABSTRACTHoney bees can be affected by a variety of pathogens, which impacts their vital role as pollinators in agriculture. A cross-sectional study was conducted in southwestern Quebec to: i) estimate the prevalence of 11 bee pathogens; ii) assess the agreement between beekeeper suspicion of a disease and laboratory detection of the causative pathogen; and iii) explore the association between observed clinical signs and pathogen detection in a colony. A total of 242 colonies in 31 apiaries owned by 15 beekeepers was sampled in August 2017. The prevalence of Varroa destructor detection wa...

Perceptions of the use of terms of endearment among older adults in an assisted living facility
CONCLUSION: Perceptions regarding the use of terms of endearment appear to differ among older adults. Therefore, the use of such terms should be individualised based on the preferences of the older adult.PMID:38595318 | DOI:10.7748/nop.2024.e1467 (Source: Nursing Older People)

Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 1720: Rapid Apta-Chromogenic Detection Method for Nitrofuran Metabolite Determination
Unajak
Nitrofuran (NF) contamination in food products is a global problem resulting in the banned utilization and importation of nitrofuran contaminated products. A novel chromogenic detection method using a specific DNA aptamer with high affinity and specificity to nitrofurans was developed. Single-stranded DNA aptamers specific to nitrofuran metabolites, including 3-amino-2-oxazolidinone (AOZ), 3-amino-5-methylmorpholino-2-oxazolidinone (AMOZ), and 1-aminohydantoin (AHD), were isolated using magnetic bead-SELEX. The colorimetric detection of nitrofurans using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) exhibited an AOZ detection ran...

Exploring the antibiofilm effects on < em > Escherichia coli < /em > biofilm associated with colon cancer and anticancer activities on HCT116 cell line of bee products
Biofouling. 2024 Apr 7:1-10. doi: 10.1080/08927014.2024.2338106. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe association between dysbiotic microbiota biofilm and colon cancer has recently begun to attract attention. In the study, the apitherapeutic effects of bee products (honey, bee venom, royal jelly, pollen, perga and propolis) obtained from the endemic Yığılca ecotype of Apis mellifera anatoliaca were investigated. Antibiofilm activity were performed by microplate assay using crystal violet staining to measure adherent biofilm biomass of Escherichia coli capable of forming biofilms. Bee venom showed the highest inhibition eff...
