The dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus, is a significant health problem as a vector for RMSF.

There is scarce data on the effect of tick bites on the immune response in humans.

The highly antigenic arginine kinase is present in ticks and many invertebrates.

This study evaluates the potential of the K. marxianus strain to adsorb AFB1.

There are no reports of K. marxianus cell wall use as mycotoxin adsorbent.

A basic medium (YPD) and an alternative medium (DDG) were used as carbon source.

The DDG medium proved to be recommendable for biomass and cell wall production.

The composition of the cell wall was analyzed to evaluate the adsorption processes.

Studies reporting the effects of digestates on ARGs in soils were analyzed.

Enrichments of several ARGs over control levels after applications were reported.

A decay of several soil ARGs is observed but control levels are not always restored.

Stool samples from 122 children diagnosed with acute diarrhea were recollected for detection of STEC and EPEC pathotypes.

E. coli were detected in 68% of the stool samples, of which 18.8% were STEC or EPEC.

STEC O145 and EPEC O130, O113 and O157 were the serotypes detected.

DEC are not routinely tested in clinical laboratories and proper surveillance is necessary.

La intervención educativa fortaleció los conocimientos relacionados a las parasitosis

Las actividades «lúdico-pedagógicas» son estrategias educativas apropiadas para la prevención

50% de la población infantil analizada estaba parasitada

Se evidenció predominio de protozoos en relación a helmintos (77,7% vs. 22,3%, respectivamente)

Se detectó con mayor frecuencia Blastocystis sp., Giardia intestinalis y Ascaris lumbricoides

Norovirus is the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis outbreaks.

Norovirus GI.3 [P13] is reported for the first time in Argentina.

The Sydney variant of Norovirus GII.4 [P16] circulates in Argentina, and it is associated with severe dehydration.

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common nosocomial infection in the ICU.

Antiseptic-coated endotracheal tubes can potentially reduce the risk of VAP.

Microbiological tests showed significant inhibition of standard bacteria by the impregnated tubes.

The impregnated tubes showed effective antimicrobial activity, and no adverse events were observed.

We determine the genotypes MTB belonging to the Beijing lineage.

406 MTB isolates were genotyped with Spoligotyping and 18-locus MIRU-VNTR.

Beijing genotype characterized phylogenetically.
