Abstract:

Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) is characterized by widespread epithelial necrosis and/or superficial blistering of the skin following infection by some toxigenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus. The disease primarily affects children under the age of 5 years, but it can also occur in adults. Continue reading “A review of staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome”

Abstract:

Low-temperature bacteria have potential to produce biohydrogen and are often considered a potential renewable energy generator for the future. However, the bacteria have presented poor hydrogen yield due to slow metabolic rate and prolonged lag phase often caused by their restricted growth temperature limit. The ineffective search for new biocatalysts from Continue reading “Potentials and limitations of cold-adapted hydrogen producing bacteria: a mini review”
