Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

Eudragit®‐engineered pH‐responsive probiotic microspheres with enhanced gastrointestinal resistance and prolonged storage stability for inflammatory bowel disease therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This study reports the development of AMS@Eud core‐shell microspheres, combining calcium alginate and pH‐responsive Eudragit® L100, which exhibit exceptional gastrointestinal resistance and long‐term storage stability (only 5.28%–9.09% viability loss over 35 days at 4–25°C), and effectively alleviate inflammatory bowel disease via gut microbiota ...

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Genetic Detection of iss, traT, and ompK36 Genes in Gram-Negative Bacteria Isolated from Different Infections in Najaf Province

International Journal of Medical Science and Dental Health
Background: The increase serum survival (iss) gene is associated with the synthesis of the O-antigen capsule, the transfer protein (traT) gene is linked to the synthesis of the K1 capsule, while the outer membrane ptroteint-36 (ompK36) gene is connected to antibiotic resistance.

Ecology and evolution of pyrazines in insects

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemical communication is the oldest and most widespread form of signalling among and within organisms. Among the many compounds involved in such communication, pyrazines – nitrogen‐containing heterocyclic molecules – are especially intriguing due to their widespread occurrence across the tree of life, from bacteria and fungi to insects and ...

Genes associated with pathogenicity of avian Escherichia coli (APEC) isolated from respiratory cases of poultry Genes associados à patogenicidade de Escherichia coli patogênica para aves (APEC) isoladas de frangos de corte com sintomatologia clínica respiratória

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2008
The virulence mechanisms of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) have been continually studied and are believed to be multi-factorial. Certain properties are primarily associated with virulent samples and have been identified in avian isolates.

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...

A Systemic Model for Understanding Business Interactions With Biodiversity and Ecosystems

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation represent critical threats to human well‐being and economic resilience, challenging businesses to understand and manage their interdependence with natural systems. This study develops a systemic framework—the BioModel—that elucidates the reciprocal relationship between businesses, biodiversity, and ...
