Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCharacterization of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infecting Bacteriophages from Swiftlet House Pond Water and Sewage in South Kalimantan, IndonesiaSiti Gusti Ningrum, Dyah Widhowati, Titin Yulinery et al.Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterium that may occur in animal-production environments and contribute to microbial contamination of animal-derived products. However, information on P. aeruginosa-infecting bacteriophages in artificial swiftlet-house environments remains limited. This study aimed to isolate and evaluate P. aeruginosa-infecting bacteriophages from the swiftlet-house environment in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. A total of 75 samples involving pond waters (n = … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 26 Oct 2026 · 55 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSwiftlet Bacteriophages Concerning Diversity and Biological Features in South Kalimantan, IndonesiaSiti Gusti Ningrum, Hana Cipka Pramuda Wardhani, Intan Permatasari HermawanWe aimed to isolate and characterize bacteriophages infecting Nitrobacter spp. from swiftlet house environments and to evaluate their biological properties as potential biocontrol agents to mitigate nitrate accumulation in edible bird’s nest (EBN) production. Environmental samples were collected from multiple swiftlet houses in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. Samples were enriched with Nitrobacter cultures, and bacteriophages were detected using spot assays followed … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 17 Apr 2026 · 1,759 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBiocontrol of Escherichia Coli O126:H7 in Skim Milk Using BacteriophagesMona H. Tolba, Arafa M.S. Meshref, Mohamed M.A. ZeinhomEscherichia coli (E. coli) is currently one of the most predominant human food-borne pathogens. In the dairy industry, recently, attention has been drawn to the potential use of bacteriophages (phages) to control bacteria in dairy products. In this study, a cocktail of three Escherichia coli bacteriophages (EcoM-AG2, EcoM-AG3 and EcoM-AG10) was tested to evaluate its ability to control Escherichia coli … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 18 Dec 2014 · 7,831 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultidrug Resistant Microorganisms (MDR) and Biofilm Producers: A Challenge for Hospital Infectious ControlDaniel Lucio, Elizabeth Proaño, Alberto Bustillos et al.Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) now represents a major threat to contemporary health care, especially in hospitals, where repeated antimicrobial exposure selects for and facilitates the dissemination of Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) microorganisms. Biofilm growth adds another layer of persistence by increasing microbial tolerance, supporting long-term colonization of medical devices, and worsening clinical and economic outcomes. This narrative review synthesizes evidence on MDR biofilm-forming … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 12 Sep 2026 · 774 accessesView PDF Cite
