Outer membrane vesicle contributes to the Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistance to antimicrobial peptides in the acidic airway of bronchiectasis patients

MedComm, Volume 6, Issue 2, February 2025.
Airway lactate and LL‐37 enrich in the P. aeruginosa‐infected bronchiectasis patients. Outer membrane vesicles release of P. aeruginosa increases in the acidic environment. OMVs induce the overproduction of 2‐heptyl‐4‐quinolone (HHQ) in P. aeruginosa. HHQ protects P. aeruginosa from LL‐37 killing by inhibiting the binding to the membrane.

A wash-free, dip-type fiber optic plasmonic (DiP) assay for sub-zeptomole analyte detection [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
This study demonstrates a rapid, wash-free dip-type fiber optic plasmonic sandwich (DiP) assay capable of zeptomole analyte detection and 6-orders of wide dynamic range. The DiP assay is realized on a compact U-bent fiber optic probe surface by dipping the antibody functionalized probe into a mixture of sample solution and AuNP labeled reagent.
