Putting System Co‐Design at the Center of Chemo‐Biohybrid CO2 Valorization From Lab to Industrial Scale

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
Chemo‐biohybrid systems promise much, but single‐discipline research still limits progress. This perspective draws on thermocatalytic, electrocatalytic, and photocatalytic hybrid systems to highlight the need for system‐level co‐design and outline future directions.

Harnessing Natural Wood Architecture: A Self‐Supporting, Hierarchically Porous NiFe@Carbon Capacitive Anode Enhances Electricity Generation and Storage in Microbial Fuel Cells

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study reports a mild “Zn(NO3)2 interlayer‐expansion” strategy combined with electrodeposition to produce a self‐supporting capacitive anode (NiFe@PC) that preserves the wood's native low‐tortuosity channels. The retained native architecture expands niches for microbial colonization.

Plant‐Derived Extracts Disrupt Biofilm Formation and Quorum Sensing in Yersinia enterocolitica: Insights From GC‐MS and Molecular Docking

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract represents how natural plant products that preferentially target the specific receptors of quorum sensing could be developed to combat biofilms linked to Yersinia enterocolitica using the potent abilities of protein–ligand complexes with high docking scores.

Nutrient depletion in Bacillus subtilis biofilms triggers matrix production

New Journal of Physics, 2014
Many types of bacteria form colonies that grow into physically robust and strongly adhesive aggregates known as biofilms. A distinguishing characteristic of bacterial biofilms is an extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) matrix that encases the cells ...
