Psilocybin, an Effective Treatment for Major Depressive Disorder in Adults - A Systematic Review (2023)
Journal Article

Psilocybin is a classical psychedelic which has been utilised for healing purposes for millenia. However, with its classification as a Schedule I substance, research into this compound is scarce with few FDA-approved clinical studies. Despite this, p...

The molecular characterisation of Escherichia coli K1 isolated from neonatal nasogastric feeding tubes (2015)
Journal Article

Background The most common cause of Gram-negative bacterial neonatal meningitis is E. coli K1. It has a mortality rate of 10–15 %, and neurological sequelae in 30–50 % of cases. Infections can be attributable to nosocomial sources, however the pre-c... Read More about The molecular characterisation of Escherichia coli K1 isolated from neonatal nasogastric feeding tubes.

Genomic dissection of the 1994 Cronobacter sakazakii outbreak in a French neonatal intensive care unit (2015)
Journal Article

Background: Cronobacter sakazakii is a member of the genus Cronobacter that has frequently been isolated from powdered infant formula (PIF) and linked with rare but fatal neonatal infections such as meningitis and necrotising enterocolitis. The Cron... Read More about Genomic dissection of the 1994 Cronobacter sakazakii outbreak in a French neonatal intensive care unit.

Description of Siccibacter colletis sp. nov., a novel species isolated from plant material, and emended description of Siccibacter turicensis (2015)
Journal Article

A re-evaluation of the taxonomic position of two strains, 1383T and 2249, isolated from poppy seeds and tea leaves, which had been identified as Siccibacter turicensis (formerly Cronobacter zurichensis ), was carried out. The analysis included phenot... Read More about Description of Siccibacter colletis sp. nov., a novel species isolated from plant material, and emended description of Siccibacter turicensis.

Genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of Cronobacter species, with particular attention to the newly reclassified species Cronobacter helveticus, Cronobacter pulveris, and Cronobacter zurichensis (2014)
Journal Article

In 2013, Enterobacter helveticus, Enterobacter pulveris and Enterobacter turicensis, were reclassified as Cronobacter helveticus, Cronobacter pulveris and Cronobacter zurichensis, respectively. Previously these species had been used as negative contr...

Draft Genome Sequence of the Earliest Cronobacter sakazakii Sequence Type 4 Strain, NCIMB 8272 (2013)
Journal Article

The Cronobacter sakazakii clonal lineage defined as sequence type 4 (ST4) is associated with severe cases of neonatal meningitis and persistence in powdered infant formula. For genome sequencing of the earliest deposited culture collection strain of... Read More about Draft Genome Sequence of the Earliest Cronobacter sakazakii Sequence Type 4 Strain, NCIMB 8272.

Sialic acid utilization by Cronobacter sakazakii (2013)
Journal Article

Background The Cronobacter genus is composed of seven species, and can cause infections in all age groups. Of particular concern is C. sakazakii, as this species is strongly associated with severe and often fatal cases of necrotizing enterocolitis a...
