Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Microbiology and Immunology focuses on the study of microbial pathogens, host immune responses, and the development of diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Research includes investigations into viral infections like rubella, rotavirus, dengue virus, and human herpesvirus, as well as bacterial pathogens such as Burkholderia mallei, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. The journal also covers aspects of immunology, including macrophage function, Toll-like receptor signaling, and the role of specific molecules like HMGB1 and microRNAs in inflammatory processes. Additionally, it explores antimicrobial resistance, bacteriocins, and the potential of postbiotics and novel vaccine designs.
