Shortening of the LPS O‐antigen part is related to decreased biofilm biomass formation, which also depends on the composition of the culture medium. Physicochemical properties of bacterial cells changed with the shortening of the O‐antigen, promoting bacterial aggregation, hydrodynamic size, zeta potential, and hydrophobicity.

Role of Seminal Exosomes in Reproduction
ABSTRACT Exosomes are small lipid bilayer vesicles, ranging from 30 to 150 nm in diameter, that are secreted by various cells and facilitate intercellular communication. They originate from the endosomal system and release their contents into the extracellular environment.

Isolation of Vibrio harveyi acyl carrier protein and the fabG, acpP, and fabF genes involved in fatty acid biosynthesis [PDF]
We report the isolation of Vibrio harveyi acyl carrier protein (ACP) and cloning of a 3,973-bp region containing the fabG (encoding 3-ketoacyl-ACP reductase, 25.5 kDa), acpP (encoding ACP, 8.7 kDa), fabF (encoding 3-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, 43.1 kDa), and pabC (encoding aminodeoxychorismate lyase, 29.9 kDa) genes.

The mGluR5 antagonist fenobam induces analgesic conditioned place preference in mice with spared nerve injury. [PDF]
Antagonists of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) have the potential to act as analgesic drugs that may help alleviate chronic pain. This study was done to look at the possible rewarding properties of the mGluR5 antagonist, fenobam, in a cognitive

ABSTRACT Nanoplanktonic diatoms (2–20 μm) are a significant yet historically understudied component of marine ecosystems. We investigated three recently isolated nanoplanktonic diatoms from the Northwest Atlantic Ocean (NWA): Minidiscus spinulatus, Mediolabrus comicus, and Minidiscus trioculatus.
