Revealing hidden moves: Staphylococcus spp. exhibit motility in semisolid media

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Staphylococcus spp. are generally considered non-motile due to the absence of active motility structures. However, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus xylosus, and Staphylococcus epidermidis have demonstrated passive movement.

Ultra‐High‐Throughput Discovery of Multifunctional Polyphenolic Coatings on Droplet Microarrays

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ultra‐high‐throughput (UHT) combinatorial strategy enables the miniaturized synthesis and screening of ≈30 000 polyamine‐polyphenolic (PaPp) coatings using droplet microarrays (DMA). This approach reveals hundreds of previously unknown fluorescent, redox‐active, and antibacterial materials, including multifunctional, cell‐compatible surfaces ...

Downregulation of motility during stress requires stressosome input in Listeria monocytogenes strain EGD-e

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology
Motility genes in Listeria monocytogenes are expressed under saprophytic conditions (30°C or less) but are repressed within the host at 37°C. Motility is costly on cellular resources due to the large molecular structures that need to be synthesized, and ...

E. coli Extracellular Matrix: A Tunable Composite With Hierarchical Structure

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The complex composite‐like mechanical behavior of E. coli biofilm matrix is the result of a synergic contribution of the rigid curli and swelling pEtN‐cellulose, and emerges from specific ratio and assembly conditions. The interactions between the two fibers govern biofilm hydration and characteristic wrinkling patterns, providing crucial insights for ...

Soft, Degradable, and Magnetic Microcarriers for Encapsulation and Guided Transport of Drugs and 3D Spheroids

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents soft, degradable hydrogel microcarriers that combine magnetic responsiveness with the ability to host multiple therapeutic and cellular components. Produced by droplet microfluidics, the carriers maintain structural integrity during manipulation, permit controlled breakdown under physiological conditions, and enable guided motion for
