Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A new class of living liquid metal composites is introduced, embedding Bacillus subtilis endospores into eutectic gallium–indium (EGaIn). The spores enhance droplet coalescence, strengthen interfacial conductivity, and provide on‐demand electrogenic functionality after germination. The composites exhibit high conductivity, self‐healing, patternability,

Role of SCFAs for Fimbrillin-Dependent Biofilm Formation of Actinomyces oris
Microorganisms, 2018 Actinomyces oris expresses type 1 and 2 fimbriae on the cell surface. Type 2 fimbriae mediate co-aggregation and biofilm formation and are composed of the shaft fimbrillin FimA and the tip fimbrillin FimB.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Here, a biointerface membrane engineered with site‐specific interfacial properties is developed. During implantation between gingival and bone defect, the membrane creates a pro‐osteogenic microenvironment, precisely modulates cellular activities at each biointerface, and facilitates the orchestration of complex healing events, ultimately leading to ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study develops a self‐powered permeable electronic dressing (SPED) that synergistically integrates exudate management, electrical stimulation, and on‐demand drug delivery. The dressing effectively absorbs exudate while demonstrating potent antibacterial activity and accelerated tissue regeneration in diabetic mouse models, thereby promoting ...

Colistin-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical strains with defective biofilm formation
GMS Hygiene and Infection Control, 2019 Aim: Colistin is the only effective antibiotic in some cases of resistance to all tested antibiotics, even carbapenem. On the other hand, biofilm formation is one of the antibiotic resistance mechanisms in this bacterium.
