In‐situ PLL‐g‐PEG Functionalized Nanopore for Enhancing Protein Characterization

Chemistry – An Asian Journal, Volume 18, Issue 17, September 1, 2023., 2023
In‐situ functionalization of thin PLL‐g‐PEG on SiN nanopores based on the self‐assembly and electrostatic interaction between the nanopore and PLL backbone of PLL‐g‐PEG is reported. This functionalization of SiN nanopores leads to non‐sticky protein translocation and volume estimation of individual proteins.

Living electronics: A catalogue of engineered living electronic components

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 3, Page 507-533, March 2023., 2023
Biology leverages a range of electrical phenomena to extract and store energy, control molecular reactions and enable multicellular communication. Recently, the microbial machinery enabling these redox reactions have been leveraged for interfacing cells and biomolecules with electrical circuits for biotechnological applications.

Sulfate biosensor for environmental applications

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 20, Issue 10, Page 674-681, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Sulfate is present in all freshwater and marine environments and is reduced to toxic and corrosive hydrogen sulfide by anaerobic bacteria. By measuring depth profiles of sulfate in sediments, it is possible to obtain estimates of sulfate reduction rates (SRRs).

Redox Mediators in Microbial Electrochemical Systems

ChemElectroChem, Volume 9, Issue 13, July 14, 2022., 2022
Electron transfer mechanisms: in microbial electrochemical systems is crucial for understanding and optimizing these processes. This review focused on mediated electron transfer and gave the reader a handbook for mediator selection by stating the relevant redox potentials and microbial interaction sites. Furthermore, the review focused on what mediator

Peculiar morphology of Asgard archaeal cells close to the prokaryote-eukaryote boundary. [PDF]

mBio
The emergence of complex eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic ancestors is a major enigma in the history of life. Current data suggest that Asgard archaea are the closest prokaryotic relatives of eukaryotes and have a genetic potential for cellular ...

Enhanced benthic nitrous oxide and ammonium production after natural oxygenation of long‐term anoxic sediments

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 419-433, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Coastal and shelf sediments are central in the global nitrogen (N) cycle as important sites for the removal of fixed N. However, this ecosystem service can be hampered by ongoing deoxygenation in many coastal areas. Natural reoxygenation could reinstate anoxic sediments as sites where fixed N is removed efficiently. To investigate this further,

Halobacterium salinarum NRC‐1 Sustains Voltage Production in a Dual‐Chambered Closed Microbial Fuel Cell

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Sustained bioenergy production from organisms that thrive in high salinity, low oxygen, and low nutrition levels is useful in monitoring hypersaline polluted environments. Microbial fuel cell (MFC) studies utilizing single species halophiles under salt concentrations higher than 1 M and as a closed microbial system are limited.
