Meniscus splitting in the drying of a viscous polymer dispersion is investigated by focusing on nucleation of multiple nuclei with symmetry breaking and asynchronous nucleus formation. Controlled by spatial boundaries, the first nucleus is generated at a position shifted away from the space center and strongly facilitates the asynchronous second ...

Background: Derivatives of D-glucosamine and D-galactosamine represent an important family of the cell surface glycan components and their fluorinated analogs found use as metabolic inhibitors of complex glycan biosynthesis, or as probes for the study of

A Novel nor@DHB Matrix for Direct Microbial Analysis in Lung Cancer Tissues
Integrated matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry workflow quantifies intratumoral microbes in lung cancer through lipopolysaccharide/lipid A extraction from biopsies. The novel ionic matrix called norharmane conjugated to 2,5‐dihydroxybenzoic acid enhances lipid A ionization, enabling direct detection of bacterial genera ...

The Pleiotropic Effects of Beneficial Mutations of Adapted Escherichia coli Populations [PDF]
Mutations that improve fitness in one environment can often be beneficial, deleterious, or neutral in alternative environments. When a single mutation effects fitness in multiple environments, it is said to be a pleiotropic, which can have important ...

Applications and interest of chitin, chitosan and their derivatives in enology
This review treats of the possible use interest of chitin, chitosan and derivatives in enology. Chitosan and chitin are polysaccharide polymers containing more than 5 000 glucosamine and acetylglucosamine units, respectively, and their molecular weights ...

Immobilized photosensitizers for antimicrobial applications [PDF]
Photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT) is a very promising alternative to conventional antibiotics for the efficient inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms; this is due to the fact that it is virtually impossible for resistant strains to ...

Drosophila GFAT1 and GFAT2 enzymes encode obligate developmental functions
Glutamine: fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase (GFAT) enzymes catalyse the first committed step of the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway (HBP) using glutamine and fructose-6-phosphate to form glucosamine-6-phosphate (GlcN6P). Numerous species (e.g. mouse,
