Compositional variation of the human fecal microbiome in relation to azo-reducing activity: a pilot study
In this pilot study, Zahran et al. show that stool samples with higher azo-reducing activity are enriched in Firmicutes but with relatively fewer Bacteroidetes. Better characterization of different azoreductase-producing gut microbes will increase our knowledge about the fate and differential human responses to azodye-containing drugs or orally consumed chemicals, thus contributing to efforts towards implementing microbiome testing in precision medicine and toxicology.
Development of a highly effective low-cost vaporized hydrogen peroxide-based method for disinfection of personal protective equipment for their selective reuse during pandemics
After a year of unprecedented PPE use, the authors of this article investigate how easily and economically it can be scaled up, as well how this is instrumental in easing global PPE shortages in any biosafety facility or in health care settings during pandemic situation such as COVID-19.

Call for papers: cross-journal series
Aims and scope
Gut Pathogens publishes research on both biological and clinical aspects of the pathogens of the gut. Studies on commensals and functional microbiota of the gut, including probiotic bacteria should be essentially in the context of infection, immunity, treatment, control or epidemiology of the enteropathogenic bacteria and other pathogens of the gut including viruses and fungi. The journal also considers timely reports on the novel aspects of genomics, metagenomics, microbiota profiling and systems biology with reference to enteric infections and pathogen evolution or fitness traits such as the antimicrobial resistance.
