Contradicting Kuhn's Popular Notion of Scientific Revolution: Conservative Revolutionaries in the History of Biology

Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Proposing the concept of a conservative revolutionary generally and using the examples of Gregor Mendel, Max Delbrück, and Eric Davidson, I fundamentally call into question Thomas Kuhn's ideas of scientific revolutions. I also highlight some problematic consequences of the increasing appreciation of Kuhn's work among scientists and show that ...

Action of Cavitation Phenomena Generated by Giant Magnetostrictive Actuator to Inactivation of Phage

Journal of the Magnetics Society of Japan, 2010
It is well-known that the irradiation of ultrasound in aqueous solution results in the generation of pulse power and resultant radicals. The ultrasound creates micro-air bubbles as cavitation, and the collapse of the bubble contributes to the generation of a shock wave, heat, and radicals.

Explaining microbial population genomics through phage predation

, 2009
The remarkable diversity of genes within the pool of prokaryotic genomes belonging to the same species or pan-genome is difficult to reconcile with the widely accepted paradigm which asserts that periodic selection within bacterial populations would ...

The genome of AR9, a giant transducing Bacillus phage encoding two multisubunit RNA polymerases

Virology, 2016
Bacteriophage AR9 and its close relative PBS1 have been extensively used to construct early Bacillus subtilis genetic maps. Here, we present the 251,042bp AR9 genome, a linear, terminally redundant double-stranded DNA containing deoxyuridine instead of thymine.

Human Gut Phageome Analysis Uncovers Thousands of Highly Modular Endolysins

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Analysis of 9141 human gut metagenomes identified 15,267 phage genomes and 3794 highly modular endolysins. The recovered endolysins showed remarkable catalytic and cell wall–binding domain diversity, highlighting the gut phageome as a rich source of novel enzybiotics with therapeutic potential against multidrug‐resistant bacteria.

Genomic characterization of bacteriophage pEt-SU, a novel phiKZ-related virus infecting Edwardsiella tarda

, 2020
A bacteriophage infecting Edwardsiella tarda (named pEt-SU) was isolated from freshwater collected in Chung-ju, South Korea. The whole genome of pEt-SU was 276,734 bp in length, representing the first giant phage infecting Edwardsiella reported to date ...

Nanobodies: A Promising Toolkit for Diagnostic Applications

SmartMat, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
This review focuses on camelid‐derived nanobodies (VHHs) and explains how their small size and high stability support robust diagnostic design. Applications across ELISA, lateral flow assays, and PET/SPECT imaging are summarized, along with clinical progress such as caplacizumab.
