Polar ecosystems are sensitive to boots climate forcing, and we often lack baselines to evaluate changes.Here we report a nearly 50-year study in which a sudden shift in the population dynamics of an ecologically important, structure-forming hexactinellid sponge, Anoxycalyx joubini was observed.This is the largest Antarctic sponge, with individuals
Salmonella and their biofilm formation are the primary bacterial causes of foodborne outbreaks and cross-contamination.The objective of the study was to investigate the potential of Salmonella phages as an alternative technology for biofilm removal.In this work, 21 Salmonella phages were isolated from a chicken farm and slaughter plant and the phag
