Salamandane, Acácio; Leech, John; Almeida, Rita; Silva, Carolina; Crispie, Fiona; Cotter, Paul D.; Malfeito-Ferreira, Manuel; Brito, LuísaThis study aimed to evaluate the microbiome, resistome and virulome of two types of Portuguese cheese using high throughput sequencing (HTS). Culture-dependent chromogenic methods were also used for certain groups/ microorganisms. Eight samples of raw ewe’s milk cheese were obtained from four producers: two producers with cheeses with a PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) label and the other two producers wit...
Characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern B.1.1.7, B.1.351 or P.1: data...
Funk, Tjede; Pharris, Anastasia; Spiteri, Gianfranco; Bundle, Nick; Melidou, Angeliki; Carr, Michael; Gonzalez, Gabriel; Garcia-Leon, AlejandroWe compared 19,207 cases of SARS-CoV-2 variant B.1.1.7/S gene target failure (SGTF), 436 B.1.351 and 352 P.1 to non-variant cases reported by seven European countries. COVID-19 cases with these variants had significantly higher adjusted odds ratios for hospitalisation (B.1.1.7/SGTF: 1.7, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.0-2.9; B.1.351: 3.6, 95% CI: 2.1-6.2; P.1: 2.6, 95% CI: 1.4-4.8) and B.1.1.7/SGTF and P.1 cas...
