A mitochondria‐targeted aggregation‐induced emission photosensitizer for eradication Candida biofilms and treating oral ulcer

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
A mitochondria‐targeted AIE photosensitizer, LIQ‐TPA‐TZ, was developed to fight against Candida infection. It can efficiently produce reactive oxygen species to kill Candida guilliermondii and eradicate biofilms. It not only disrupted the respiratory chain and affected the metabolism and energy supply but also reduced the fungi adhesion and filament ...

SIS Epidemic Spreading with Heterogeneous Infection Rates [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
In this work, we aim to understand the influence of the heterogeneity of infection rates on the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS) epidemic spreading. Employing the classic SIS model as the benchmark, we study the influence of the independently identically distributed infection rates on the average fraction of infected nodes in the metastable state.
