One‐Step Immobilized Phage Depolymerase Coatings for Catheter‐Related Bloodstream Infections

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Catheter‐related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) caused by drug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria remain a major clinical challenge. Here, a polydopamine‐assisted depolymerase coating degrades bacterial capsules and restores serum‐mediated killing, effectively suppressing biofilms and reducing bacterial burden in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo, presenting a

Potassium iodide enhances the antimicrobial activity of plasma-activated water

Biofilm
Plasma-activated water (PAW) is a promising disinfection strategy that generates a complex mixture of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS), including hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), nitrate (NO3−), and transient oxidants, in an acidic aqueous ...

Mesoporous PU/PEDOT:PSS Electrodes Reveal Population‐Level Stochastic Bioelectrical Dynamics in Marine Diatoms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesoporous mixed ionic‐electronic PU/PEDOT: PSS electrodes enable label‐free detection of stochastic extracellular bioelectrical dynamics in living Phaeodactylum tricornutum. Living diatoms actively modulate interfacial ionic dynamics, establishing stochastic electrochemical noise as a sensitive probe of microbial bioelectrochemical activity and a new ...

Disinfectant Susceptibility of Biofilm Formed by Listeria monocytogenes under Selected Environmental Conditions

, 2019
Listeria monocytogenes is a one of the most important food-borne pathogens. Its ability to form biofilm contributes to increased resistance to disinfectants and inefficient disinfection, posing a serious threat for the food industry, and in the end the ...

Reversing Macrophage Immunometabolic Dysfunction in Prolonged Infections Via a Glutaminolysis‐Fueled Restoration‐Based Hierarchically Selective Therapeutic System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A hierarchically selective immunotherapeutic nanoplatform, mGls@HEV‐MTP, selectively restores macrophage immunocompetence through GLS1‐mediated restoration of glutaminolysis‐fueled anaplerosis. Concurrently, it renders Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) more readily recognizable to the metabolically reprogrammed macrophages, thereby facilitating ...

A Metal‐Polyphenol Self‐Assembled Coated 3D Sponge With Mild Photothermal Antibacterial, Exudate‐Controlling, and Immunomodulatory Functions for Hemostasis and Chronic Wound Healing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A thrombin‐functionalized copper‐polydopamine nanofiber sponge integrates rapid hemostasis, mild photothermal antibacterial therapy, stimulus‐responsive Cu2+ release, chemodynamic oxidative stress, and macrophage immunomodulation. This multifunctional dressing suppresses infection, regulates inflammation, promotes angiogenesis and re‐epithelialization,

Biofilm Formation and the Role of Efflux Pumps in ESKAPE Pathogens

Microorganisms
Nosocomial infections caused by ESKAPE pathogens represent a significant burden to global health. These pathogens may exhibit multidrug resistance (MDR) mechanisms, of which mechanisms such as efflux pumps and biofilm formation are gaining significant ...

Functional–Taxonomic Scaling Resolves Conflicting Average Genome Size Estimates Across Environmental Gradients

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on genome size‐functional breadth theory, we introduce and validate a framework that adjudicates conflicting average genome size (AGS) estimates by testing which estimate yields a gap between scaled functional diversity and scaled taxonomic diversity that is consistent with the expected positive association between genome size and gene functional

Biosynthesis of Spatially Differentiated Cellulose for Flexible All‐in‐one Supercapacitors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Spatially differentiated bacterial cellulose is grown by oxygen‐guided biosynthesis to form dense surface regions connected by an open fibrillar interlayer. This architecture supports electroactive material loading, ion transport, and mechanical stability in an all‐in‐one supercapacitor, showing how biological assembly can create device‐ready ...
