Nova vrsta plijesni Aspergillus pepii nazvana je u čast prof. Stjepana Pepeljnjaka
Nedavno objavljeni rad Jakšić Despot i sur. New sterigmatocystin-producing species of Aspergillus section Versicolores from indoor air in Croatia, Mycological Progress, 2017;16:63-72, opisuje novu vrstu plijesni iz roda Aspergillus koja pripada sekciji Versicolores. Vrsta je izolirana iz zraka u mlinu žitarica i nazvana je Aspergillus pepii, u čast prof. Stjepana Pepeljnjaka, a odabran je naziv pepii prema nadimku po kojem je prof. Pepeljnjak poznat među suradnicima, studentima i prijateljima. Ako vas zanima nešto više o A. pepii-ju javite se na mail msegvic@pharma.hr.

Walnuts may promote health by changing gut bacteria
A new study has found that walnuts in the diet change the makeup of bacteria in the gut, which suggests a new way walnuts may contribute to better health.
New tool to distinguish between viral, bacterial infections
Antibiotics are lifesaving drugs, but overuse is leading to antibiotic resistance, one of the world's most pressing health threats. Scientists identified 11 genetic markers in blood that accurately distinguished between viral and bacterial infections 80 to 90 percent of the time. The finding is important because physicians don't have a good way to confirm bacterial infections like pneumonia and more-often-than-not default to an antibiotic.
