This volume features a diverse range of research articles. One study characterizes the morphology of ten lytic bacteriophages from different families targeting Klebsiella pneumoniae. Another paper investigates histopathologic changes in liver and kidney tissue from chronic unpredictable mild stress-induced stress-depression male Sprague-Dawley rats supplemented with acacia honey.

Research on the aging responses and fracture surface morphology of Al-Mg-Si alloys with different weight percent compositions of Mg and Si is presented. The antimicrobial activity of alloy metals and phage on Elizabethkingia anophelis is also examined. A study explores the effect of the number of vacuum thermal evaporation cycles on the optoelectronic and morphological properties of ZnO.

The proteinaceous postbiotic metabolite produced by Lactobacillus plantarum I-UL4 exhibits anti-colorectal cancer and immunomodulatory properties in azoxymethane-induced rats. Another paper discusses the induction of autophagy in triple-negative breast cancer cells by 2-Methoxy-1,4-Naphthoquinone (MNQ). The antiphlogistic effect of Saussurea lappa roots’ ethanol extract is compared to that of paracetamol.

Case studies on the characterization of brake pad surfaces using scanning electron microscope provide valuable insights. The structural and mechanical properties of high-density polyethylene composites reinforced with BMIMCl- and CTAB-treated sawdust are analyzed. Research shows that Duffy-positive reticulocytes generated in vitro from human peripheral blood CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells are susceptible to invasion by Plasmodium knowlesi
