Extracellular DNA Promotes Efficient Extracellular Electron Transfer by Pyocyanin in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilms

open access: yesCell, 2019
Extracellular electron transfer (EET), the process whereby cells access electron acceptors or donors that reside many cell lengths away, enables metabolic activity by microorganisms, particularly under oxidant-limited conditions that occur in ...

Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

Assessing and reducing sources of gene expression variability in Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilms

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2014
Gene expression quantification can be a useful tool in studying the properties of bacterial biofilms. Unfortunately, techniques such as RNA extraction, cDNA synthesis, and quantitative PCR (qPCR) can introduce variability into mRNA transcript ...

Emergence of three-dimensional order and structure in growing biofilms

open access: yesNature Physics, 2018
Surface-attached bacterial biofilms are self-replicating active liquid crystals and the dominant form of bacterial life on Earth1–4. In conventional liquid crystals and solid-state materials, the interaction potentials between the molecules that comprise

Engineered Plasmonic and Fluorescent Nanomaterials for Biosensing, Motion, Imaging, and Therapeutic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A schematic illustration of how noble metals can be used to create nanoparticles (NPs) or nanoclusters (NCs). Noble metal NPs, due to their plasmonic properties, enable photothermal therapy and surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). In contrast, NCs, which lack a plasmonic resonance band, exhibit fluorescence, making them ideal for bioimaging ...
