MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2023 May 12;72(19):513-516. doi: 10.15585/mmwr.mm7219a2.ABSTRACTIn July 2021, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) laboratory identified a cluster of five Salmonella enterica serotype Thompson isolates related to one another within one allele difference, using whole genome multilocus sequence typing (wgMLST). These five isolates, submitted to the public health laboratory as is routine process for confirmatory testing of Salmonella, were highly related to those identified in a 2020 multistate investigation, during which traceback was conducted for sushi-grade tuna and s...

Dietary and maternal sociodemographic determinants of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substance levels in pregnant women
Chemosphere. 2023 May 6:138863. doi: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.138863. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiet, including drinking water, and demographic characteristics have been associated with PFAS exposure levels in the general population. But data in pregnant women are scarce. We aimed to examine the PFAS levels in relation to these factors in early pregnancy and included 2545 pregnant women in early pregnancy from the Shanghai Birth Cohort. Ten PFAS were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS-MS) in plasma samples at around 14 weeks of gestation. Geometric mean (GM) ratios...

Arcobacter species isolated from various seafood and water sources; virulence genes, antibiotic resistance genes and molecular characterization
This study aimed to assess the prevalence ofArcobacter spp. in fish, water, and shellfish. A total of 150 samples were collected from the Adana, Kayseri and Kahramanmaras provinces in Turkey.Arcobacter spp. was isolated from 32 (21%) of the 150 samples. The most prevalent species wasA. cryaerophilus, 17 (56%),A. butzleri 13 (37%) andA. lacus 2 (6%). As a result, the ratios of themviN, irgA, pldA, tlyA andhecA target genes were found as 17 (51%), 1 (3%), 7 (23%), 7 (23%), 1 (3%), respectively. Whilebla OXA-61, tetO andtetW were positive in all isolates, were found asmcr1/2/6, mcr3/7, andmcr5, genes %37.5, %25, and %34.3, r...

Effect of cadmium in the gonads of mussel (Mytilus coruscus): an ionomics and proteomics study
In this study, we investigated the molecular response of mussel gonads to cadmium accumulation at two concentrations (80 and 200 µg/L) for 30 days using ionomics and proteomics techniques. The shrinkage of the cells and moderate hemocytic infiltration were observed in the Cd-treated groups. The strontium, selenium (Se), and zinc contents were significantly altered, and the relationships between iron, copper, Se, manganese, calcium, sodium, and magnesium were also significantly altered. Label-free quantitative proteomics analysis revealed a total of 227 differentially expressed proteins. These proteins were associated with...

Occupational allergic diseases among harvesting fishermen at the open sea: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: Occupational allergic diseases in harvesting fishermen are described in developed countries, but few from countries with high number of fishermen, such as in Asia, and mostly include IgE mediated diseases. The presence of the healthy worker effect is probable. Atmospheric allergen concentration is a major risk factor for OA. Specific conditions, including cold air, fishes juice contact, salt water contact, are other risk factors. There is a need for investigating occupational allergic disease in all countries and developing specific studies on fishermen.PMID:37116652 | DOI:10.1016/j.anai.2023.04.018 (Source: An...
