Cellular automaton for bacterial towers

open access: yes, 2003
A simulation approach to the stochastic growth of bacterial towers is presented, in which a non-uniform and finite nutrient supply essentially determines the emerging structure through elementary chemotaxis.

Regulated Ion‐Diffusion Hydrogels for Subtle and Multimodal Temperature‐Strain Sensing in Wound Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A soft, dual‐channel hydrogel patch enables simultaneous detection of wound temperature and strain by integrating ion‐diffusion‐mediated thermoelectric and resistive sensing. The conformal design maintains stable performance during motion, capturing subtle inflammatory and mechanical changes for continuous wound monitoring.

The effect of combined sewer overflow (CSO) on the abundance of antibiotic resistant bacteria in the James River [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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 ...

Phenotypic and genetic differences among group B Streptococcus recovered from neonates and pregnant women in Shenzhen, China: 8-year study

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2019
Background Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a leading cause of early-onset disease (EOD) and late-onset disease (LOD) in infants. We sought to investigate the antibiotic susceptibility profiles, resistance genes, virulence-related genes, serotype ...

Plasmids and bacterial resistance to biocides [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Microbiology, 1997
Plasmid-encoded bacterial resistance to antibiotics and to anions and cation (including important mercurial and silver compounds) has been widely studied. Plasmid-mediated resistance to organic cationic agents which are important biocides has been described for chlorhexidine and quaternary ammonium compounds (and also for the less important acridine ...

Single‐ and Dual‐Atom Configurations in Atomically Dispersed Catalysts for Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Single‐atom and dual‐atom‐based atomically dispersed catalysts (ADCs) effectively address the shuttle effect and sluggish redox kinetics in Li–S batteries. With nearly 100% atomic utilization and tunable coordination environments, ADCs enhance LiPSs adsorption, lower conversion barriers, and accelerate sulfur redox reactions.

Resistome Profiles, Plasmid Typing, and Whole-Genome Phylogenetic Tree Analyses of BlaNDM-9 and Mcr-1 Co-Harboring Escherichia coli ST617 from a Patient without a History of Farm Exposure in Korea

open access: yesPathogens, 2019
Recently, a blaNDM-9 and mcr-1 co-harboring E. coli ST 617 isolate was identified from an asymptomatic carrier in Korea. An 81-year-old female was admitted to a university hospital for aortic cardiac valve repair surgery.

Expression of human adenosine deaminase in nonhuman primates after retrovirus-mediated gene transfer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Primate bone marrow cells were infected with a retroviral vector carrying the genes for human adenosine deaminase (h-ADA) and bacterial neomycin resistance (neor). The infected cells were infused back into the lethally irradiated donor animals.
