Oral Microbiota Composition in Children and Adults During Spanish COVID-19 Lockdown: Impact of Home Self-Confinement and SARS-CoV-2 infection

Miguel Blanco-Fuertes, Gerard González-Comino, Pedro Brotons…·Carmen Muñoz‐Almagro

This study examines how oral microbiota composition in children and adults changes during the COVID-19 lockdown, finding age and cohabitation influence microbiota, but not infection status in children.

Inhibitory effect of Dolosigranulum pigrum and Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum on pneumococcal in vitro growth

M Cisneros, Miguel Blanco-Fuertes, Aleix Lluansí…·Carmen Muñoz‐Almagro

This study shows that Dolosigranulum pigrum and Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum inhibit pneumococcal growth in vitro, with a synergistic effect when both are present.

Staphylococcus aureus adopts revertible intracellular viable-but-non-culturable phenotypes in chronic osteocyte infections

Nicholas J. Gunn, Anja R. Zelmer, M. Amjad Hossain…·Gerald J. Atkins

This study shows Staphylococcus aureus can enter a viable-but-non-culturable state within osteocytes, escape, and revert to active growth, explaining culture-negative but PCR-positive osteomyelitis.
