The invasive form of this disease leads to a high rate of hospitalizations and fatality. The main mode of transmission is through contaminated ready-to-eat foods such as dairy, vegetables and meat products. The knowledge of the diversity and population dynamics of isolates collected from human and food sources is essential for the detection of clusters and the identification of common sites of infection. The aim of this study was the molecular characterization of <em>L. monocytogenes</em> isolates in Argentina. We sequenced a total of 63 isolates, 35 from human and 28 from food sources, collected between 2018 and 2023. Our genomic study divided the isolates into two lineages, four serogroups, 17 sequence types and 15 clonal complexes (CCs). The hypervirulent clone CC1 (lineage I; serogroup IVb) predominated in human and food samples. The phylogenomic analysis showed a high and possible epidemiological relationship between isolates from human and/or food sources, suggesting the presence of transmission chains in our country. These findings highlight the need to strengthen genomic surveillance of <em>L. monocytogenes</em> in Argentina. The identification of geographic distribution and characteristics of predominant and emerging clones from human and food sources might help to focus action plans and public health policies better directed at the control and prevention of listeriosis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21163,"journal":{"name":"Revista Argentina de microbiologia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0325754124000427/pdfft?md5=30bf52e2d9d8339ac85d9f6231190014&pid=1-s2.0-S0325754124000427-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141247501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this sense, obtaining higher contaminant-resistant microalgae lines is widely desired. In this study, adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) and random mutagenesis were used to obtain <em>Chlorella vulgaris</em> LMPA-40 strains adapted to grow in polluted water from the Cildáñez stream.

The best results were obtained for the Cildáñez wastewater adapted cells (Cild 3 strain) that were more resistant than the original strain. The concentration of protein, Chlorophyll A, Chlorophyll B, and carotenoids in the Cild 3 ALE evolved strain was higher than that of the control strain. However, this strain exhibited half of the lipid content compared to the same control strain. Interestingly, these alterations and the acquired tolerance may be reversed over time during storage. These findings suggest that the acquisition of novel cell lines could not be permanent, a fact that must be considered for future trials.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21163,"journal":{"name":"Revista Argentina de microbiologia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0325754124000816/pdfft?md5=7d5205e469aa55049c1fcd77cc9f95be&pid=1-s2.0-S0325754124000816-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141875852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
