PPARα‐ and DEHP‐Induced Cancers
Di(2‐ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) is a widely used plasticizer and a potentially nongenotoxic carcinogen. Its mechanism had been earlier proposed based on peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor α (PPARα) because metabolites of DEHP are agonists. However, recent evidence also suggests the involvement of non‐PPARα multiple pathway in DEHP‐induced ...

Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities
SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction

Dual antibacterial effect of immobilized quaternary ammonium and aliphatic groups on PVC [PDF]
A coating comprising quaternary ammonium salts (QAS) and aliphatic moieties was formed on the poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) surface in order to confer antibacterial activity. This was achieved by grafting mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane onto PVC, followed by
