Immunization with a Recombinant, Pseudomonas fluorescens-Expressed, Mutant Form of Bacillus anthracis-Derived Protective Antigen Protects Rabbits from Anthrax Infection. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Protective antigen (PA), one of the components of the anthrax toxin, is the major component of human anthrax vaccine (Biothrax). Human anthrax vaccines approved in the United States and Europe consist of an alum-adsorbed or precipitated (respectively ...

Illuminating point‐of‐care diagnostics with aggregation‐induced emission biosensors
FlexMat, EarlyView.This review highlights the application of aggregation‐induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) in point‐of‐care (POC) diagnostics for disease biomarker detection. It systematically examines a range of biosensing platforms, including lateral flow immunoassays, microfluidic chips, and electrochemiluminescence sensors, alongside their utility in detecting ...

Membrane translocation by anthrax toxin [PDF]
Molecular Aspects of Medicine, 2009 Much attention has been focused on anthrax toxin recently, both because of its central role in the pathogenesis of Bacillus anthracis and because it has proven to be one of the most tractable toxins for studying how enzymic moieties of intracellularly acting toxins traverse membranes.

Human monoclonal antibodies that neutralize anthrax toxin by inhibiting heptamer assembly [PDF]
, 2004 A panel of human anti-anthrax protective antigen IgG1 monoclonal antibodies were evaluated to determine the mechanism of toxin neutralization. AVP-22G12, AVP-1C6 and AVP-21D9 bound to the protective antigen with picomolar affinities to distinct non ...

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in Bionanotechnology: Current Advances and Future Perspectives
Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 51, 11 September 2026.Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) enables the nanoscale mapping of electrostatic surface potentials. While widely applied in materials science, its use in biological systems remains emerging. This review presents recent advances in KPFM applied to biological samples and provides a critical perspective on current limitations and future directions for

The Intriguing History of Gloves and Their Application to Surgery
ANZ Journal of Surgery, Volume 96, Issue 9, Page 2278-2283, September 2026.Gloves were first worn to protect against cold and injury. In surgery, their purpose now is to reduce surgical site infection and blood‐borne transmission of disease. Surprisingly, their adoption in surgery as a routine has been remarkably recent and had a bizarre origin.
