Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

A hollow‐structured Fe3O4@AgAu@PDA‐ZnPc nanosphere has been developed, exhibiting controllable catalytic activity and “photothermal‐photodynamic‐Ag+” coupling antibacterial characteristics. When subjected to a rotating magnetic field, these performances are uniquely enhanced by magnetic propulsion, allowing the nanosphere to function as a magnetic ...

A phosphodiester‐backboned bottlebrush polymer (pacDNA) engineered for aptamer delivery is presented. This design enhances aptamer stability, plasma pharmacokinetics, and target engagement in vivo. In AXL‐driven cancer models, pacDNA inhibits AXL signaling and reduces tumor growth, highlighting the promise of precision polymer scaffolds in aptamer ...

The effect of combined sewer overflow (CSO) on the abundance of antibiotic resistant bacteria in the James River [PDF]
Antibiotics have been used to treat bacterial infections worldwide since their discovery in the early 20th century and are vital to human health. Unfortunately, the heavy use of antibiotics has led to the increased natural selection of antibiotic ...

Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) granular hydrogel scaffolds (GHS) are fabricated using a generalized two‐step photocrosslinking approach to yield stable (non‐dissolving) microgels suitable for in situ covalent assembly under physiological conditions. A phase diagram is developed to define the interplay between individual microgel stability and scaffold ...

Restrictive use of antibiotics in organic animal farming – a potential for safer, high quality products with less antibiotic resistant bacteria [PDF]
Spread of antibiotic resistance along the food-chain is a major food safety concern due to the risk of treatment failure of human foodborne infections. Recent reports suggest that the restrictions on use of antibiotics in organic animal farming promote ...

Antibiotic resistance evolved via inactivation of a ribosomal RNA methylating enzyme. [PDF]
Modifications of the bacterial ribosome regulate the function of the ribosome and modulate its susceptibility to antibiotics. By modifying a highly conserved adenosine A2503 in 23S rRNA, methylating enzyme Cfr confers resistance to a range of ribosome ...

Persisters show heritable phenotype and generate bacterial heterogeneity and noise in protein expression [PDF]
Persisters are a small subpopulation of bacteria that survive a lethal concentration of antibiotic without antibiotic resistance genes. Isolation of persisters from normally dividing population is considered difficult due to their slow growth, low ...

Synthetic Antiferromagnetic Designer Nanodisks for High‐Performance Magnetic Separation
Micromagnetic‐modeling‐based design and scalable fabrication of synthetic antiferromagnet (SAF) magnetic disk particles (MDPs) using sputter deposition enable high‐performance magnetic separation. The SAF MDPs achieve high colloidal stability and magnetic responsiveness and enable efficient magnetic separation, outperforming conventional particles ...
