Limits to growth and what keeps a biofilm finite

, 1999
Two of the factors, shear erosion and diffusive mass transfer, which limit the growth of heterogeneous biofilms are considered. For permeable beds of particulates, with a regulated throughflow, equating shear induced erosion and biofilm growth, leads to ...

5-Fluorouracil Inhibits Bacterial Growth and Reduces Biofilm in Addition to Having Synergetic Effects with Gentamicin Against Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a multidrug-resistant pathogen known for chronic infections, mainly due to biofilm formation. This study aimed to explore the potential repurposing of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), an anticancer drug, to treat P. aeruginosa infections.

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 ...

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 ...
