Filter feeding by oysters reduces disease transmission in a marine host–parasite system
Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract As a mechanism of the dilution effect, predation and filter feeding on parasitic propagules are hypothesized to reduce transmission to susceptible hosts and alter host–parasite interactions. In marine systems, the effect of other community members on the disease dynamics of microparasites in their suitable hosts is poorly known.

Electroanalysis, Volume 38, Issue 1, January 2026.The modification of the glassy carbon electrode with carbon quantum dot‐titanium dioxide‐manganese dioxide (CQD‐TiO2–MnO2) and the immobilization of the aptamer have significantly enhanced the performance of the newly developed aptasensor. This improvement has led to better electrochemical performance, an increased electroactive surface area ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Nucleotides are the activated building blocks for DNA and RNA as well as the major form of energy in all living organisms. Cells need to synthesize nucleotides to grow. Interference with this synthesis is thus widely used to treat infections
