Background: can be transferred via water- and food-borne routes, and it causes diseases; therefore, it is considered a major public health concern worldwide.
Aim: The objectives of this study were to detect in water using microscopic examination and molecular biology and to determine the relationship between in the current research and registered in GenBank based on the phylogenetic tree.
Methods: Sixty-five water samples (35 house tanks and 30 tap water) were collected from Mosul city's left and right sides between September 2023 and March 2024.
Results: The present study indicates that the prevalence of in water in Mosul City, based on microscopic examination, was 49.2%. The highest occurrence of in water was observed on the right side at 54.5%, while the lowest occurrence, at 43.8%, was observed on the left side. Furthermore, the occurrence of was 68.6% in house tank water samples was 68.6%, while in tap water samples, it was 26.7%. Furthermore, the PCR as revealed that was detected in 3.13% (1 of 32) of the water samples collected from Mosul. A novel strain of has been registered in the NCBI GenBank.
Conclusion: Proper hygiene during water sterilization and storage can help keep water uncontaminated for an extended period.

Simultaneous sensing and quantification of pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) are crucial for protecting the environment and maintaining long-term ecological sustainability. This study focuses on the bio-based synthesis of BiS-ZnO nanocomposites (BiS-ZnO(bio)) using bio-extract for dual-analyte selective and simultaneous electrochemical monitoring of phenylbutazone (PBZ) and sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) in the environmental matrices. BiS-ZnO(bio) exhibited ZnO(bio) nanostructures embedded on BiS(bio) nanorods with an average rod length of 1409.

Background: Oral emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (F/TDF) preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) effectiveness against HIV acquisition highly depends on adherence. For men who have sex with men, a dosing study in the United States (US) population defined clinically meaningful tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) thresholds in dried blood spots (DBS) based on the rounded 25th percentile for 2, 4, and 7 doses/week as 350, 700, and 1,250 fmol/punch. However, divergent efficacy results in the first generation randomized clinical trials of F/TDF PrEP among African women led to several hypotheses to question whether the pharmacology and adherence requirement for oral F/TDF PrEP may be different in cisgender women compared to what is already established for men.

Background: Salmonella enterica encompasses over 2,600 serovars, including several commonly associated with severe infection in humans. Salmonella is a major cause of sepsis in Africa; however, diagnosis requires clinical microbiology facilities. Environmental surveillance has the potential to play a role in Salmonella surveillance.

Flaxseed oil contains elevated levels of omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA), which have been shown to impact reproductive performance. This study aimed to determine the effects of a flaxseed oil-based supplement on reproductive parameters, feeding behavior, and lipid profile in beef heifers. Sixty Angus and Simmental × Angus heifers (14 months old ± 2 months), blocked by full body weight (BW; 396.
