A performance evaluation of targeted eDNA and eDNA metabarcoding analyses for freshwater fishes [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundThe use of environmental DNA analysis has revolutionized biodiversity monitoring. Initially, eDNA monitoring surveys in aquatic environments utilized a targeted approach, but there has been a steady shift toward whole community assessments (eDNA metabarcoding).

Using Environmental DNA to Detect Estuarine Crocodiles, a Cryptic-Ambush Predator of Humans
Negative human–wildlife interactions can be better managed by early detection of the wildlife species involved. However, many animals that pose a threat to humans are highly cryptic, and detecting their presence before the interaction occurs can be ...

Serum proteases prevent bacterial biofilm formation: role of kallikrein and plasmin
Biofilm formation is a general strategy for bacterial pathogens to withstand host defense mechanisms. In this study, we found that serum proteases inhibit biofilm formation by Neisseria meningitidis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Haemophilus influenzae, and ...
