Article Abstract

The effects of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) with various CO concentrations on the bacterial community and shelf-life of smoked chicken legs during 25 d of storage at 4 °C were evaluated herein. Four treatments were stored in pallets (PAL) and MAP under 20% (M20), 60% (M60), and 100% (M100) CO, respectively. The results indicated that the MAP treatments provided the legs with higher redness and hardness and lower yellowness, luminance, and lipid oxidation, compared with the PAL treatment. In addition, the MAP treatments effectively inhibited the growth of viable bacteria, delayed bacterial spoilage, and extended the shelf-life of the samples. The M60 and M100 treatments had a better inhibition effect on bacteria. In terms of bacterial community, , , , and were the most predominant genera in the 25 d-stored MAP samples, with , , , and being the dominant species. However, while the inhibition effects of the M60 and M100 treatments on the bacterial community at Day 25 were similar, the outer package of the M100 treatment collapsed. Overall, the M60 treatment may be a promising approach to improving the quality and extending the shelf-life of smoked chicken legs.

Inter-laboratory replicability is crucial yet challenging in microbiome research. Leveraging microbiomes to promote soil health and plant growth requires understanding underlying molecular mechanisms using reproducible experimental systems. In a global collaborative effort involving five laboratories, we aimed to help advance reproducibility in microbiome studies by testing our ability to replicate synthetic community assembly experiments.

Introduction: Both aging and malignancy are associated with an increased risk of infections, including bloodstream infections. Despite their clinical significance, research concentrating on the epidemiology, outcomes, and risk factors influencing mortality in older cancer patients is still limited. This study aims to examine the epidemiology of bloodstream infections and factors contributing to mortality among older cancer patients.

Objectives: Oral health is an important aspect of quality of life for older people, especially those with dementia. The impact of an active oral hygiene program on the oral microbiome was explored in a group of older participants (average age 84 years old) with dementia against a separate control group whose oral hygiene followed the status quo.

Materials And Methods: The oral cavity bacteriomes and mycobiomes were assessed from swabs of cheek, gum, and tongue surfaces.
