The development of the BSAC standardized method of disc diffusion testing [PDF]
Abstract The BSAC Working Party on Susceptibility Testing has developed a standardized method of disc susceptibility testing that has been ‘field tested’ in 19 diagnostic laboratories in the UK and Ireland. The method employs semi-defined media, a semi-confluent inoculum and relates zones of inhibition with BSAC-specified MIC breakpoints

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Detection of Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumonia using two Sensitivity Methods
Carbapenems, potent β-lactams antibiotics, were initially used as last-resort treatments for severe Gram-negative bacteria such as Klebsiella pneumonia. These bacteria were considered one of Enterbacteriaceae family associated with pneumonia and urinary

Electron transfer between complexes III and IV in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial membranes
Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae mitoplasts is limited by complex IV catalytic capacity, rather than two‐dimensional cytochrome c diffusion. At physiological cytochrome c : supercomplex ratios at salinity equivalent to that of 20 mm monovalent salt, activity is maximized, indicating that this low ionic strength accurately mimics

Diffusion of small solutes into the intervertebral disc: as in vitro study
By comparing results obtained in vivo on penetration of (35S) sulphate and (3H) methyl glucose into the intervertebral disc of adult dogs, with those calculated using Fick’s law, and diffusion and partition coefficients obtained in vitro, diffusion was shown to be the main mechanism for transport of small solutes into the intervertebral disc.

We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
