Landscape features correlate with spatial distribution of red-swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii in a network of ponds

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
The red-swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii has become the most cosmopolitan freshwater crayfish species in the world as a result of numerous intentional and accidental introductions.

Impact of neonatal intensive care bed configuration on rates of late-onset bacterial sepsis and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus colonization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
OBJECTIVES: Infections cause significant morbidity and mortality in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). The association between nursery design and nosocomial infections has not been delineated. We hypothesized that rates of colonization by methicillin-

The mode of delivery affects the diversity and colonization pattern of the gut microbiota during the first year of infants' life: a systematic review

open access: yesBMC Gastroenterology, 2016
BackgroundThe human gut is the habitat for diverse and dynamic microbial ecosystem. The human microbiota plays a critical role in functions that sustain health and is a positive asset in host defenses.

Patterning the Void: Combining L‐Systems with Archimedean Tessellations as a Perspective for Tissue Engineering Scaffolds

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel multi‐scale scaffold design using L‐fractals arranged in Archimedean tessellations for tissue regeneration. Despite similar porosity, tiles display vastly different tensile responses (1–100 MPa) and deformation modes. In vitro experiments with hMSCs show geometry‐dependent growth and activity. Over 55 000 tile combinations

L’ancienne cité indigène Ruisseau d’Or (actuelle Cité Oued Edheb), une marge urbaine en voie d’intégration à la ville d’Annaba-Algérie

open access: yesBelgeo
The urban margin is a moving socio-spatial entity, modeled by systems of actors, powers and representations evolving in a space-time system. The objective of the paper is not to develop a theoretical reflection on marginality, but to take a look at this ...

Colonization of Non-biodegradable and Biodegradable Plastics by Marine Microorganisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Plastics are ubiquitous in the oceans and constitute suitable matrices for bacterial attachment and growth. Understanding biofouling mechanisms is a key issue to assessing the ecological impacts and fate of plastics in marine environment.

Mechanically Tunable Bone Scaffolds: In Vivo Hardening of 3D‐Printed Calcium Phosphate/Polycaprolactone Inks

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D bone scaffold with osteogenic properties and capable of hardening in vivo is developed. The scaffold is implanted in a ductile state, and a phase transformation of the ceramic induces the stiffening and strengthening of the scaffold in vivo. Abstract Calcium phosphate 3D printing has revolutionized customized bone grafting.

Intestinal colonization due to Escherichia coli ST131: Risk factors and prevalence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (ST131) is a successful clonal group that has dramatically spread during the last decades and is considered an important driver for the rapid increase of quinolone resistance in E. coli.
