Article Synopsis
- Infection might trigger post-infectious irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in humans and possibly cause a similar condition in rhesus macaques.
- The study presents the complete genomes of 8 isolates and 103 isolates derived from rhesus macaques, examining both those with intestinal disease and those without.
- Understanding these genetic isolates could help in exploring the link between infection and IBS, enhancing knowledge of gastrointestinal disorders.
Post-harvest mitigation techniques are insufficient at addressing harbored in cattle lymph nodes, necessitating the exploration of pre-harvest alternatives that reduce prior to dissemination to the lymph nodes. A 2 × 2, unbalanced experiment was conducted to determine the effectiveness of pre-harvest treatments applied to the pen surface for mitigation in cattle. Treatments included manure slurry intended to mimic pen run-off water (n = 4 pens), a bacteriophage cocktail (n = 4), a combination of both treatments (n = 5), and a control group (n = 5) that received no treatment.

SCFAs may mitigate inflammatory conditions such as obesity through modulation of histone acetylation. Lipid metabolism and inflammation play critical roles during pregnancy.
