Mesoporous PU/PEDOT:PSS Electrodes Reveal Population‐Level Stochastic Bioelectrical Dynamics in Marine Diatoms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesoporous mixed ionic‐electronic PU/PEDOT: PSS electrodes enable label‐free detection of stochastic extracellular bioelectrical dynamics in living Phaeodactylum tricornutum. Living diatoms actively modulate interfacial ionic dynamics, establishing stochastic electrochemical noise as a sensitive probe of microbial bioelectrochemical activity and a new ...

Microbial analysis of Dinuguan food samples from carinderias and restaurants

, 1994
Dinuguan from six food establishments were analyzed for their microbial count and for the presence of coliform organisms. Five out of nine food samples from the three carinderias sampled showed microbial contamination but had a standard plate count of ...

Repurposing FDA‐Approved Drugs to Inhibit Fungal PPTases for Broad‐Spectrum Synergy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fungal secondary metabolites serve as crucial virulence effectors; however, the potential of their biosynthetic pathways as antifungal targets remains inadequately comprehended. Repurposed FDA‐approved drugs inhibit fungal PPTase (essential for secondary metabolism) in vivo.

White Rot Fungi to Decompose Organophosphorus Insecticides and their Relation to Soil Microbial Load and Ligninolytic Enzymes

BioResources
The functional and structural features of microbial load in soil are influenced by the presence of insecticides. This study examined the impact of two organophosphorus insecticides, dimethoate and parathion on the microbial load of soil. The colony count

Targeting the NR1D1–IGF2BP2–V‐ATPase Axis With Hybrid Nanovesicles Restores Macrophage Rhythms to Reverse Sepsis‐Induced Immunosuppression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sepsis disrupts immune‐cell rhythms and weakens bacterial clearance. Biomimetic nanovesicles combining erythrocyte and inflammation‐activated macrophage membranes deliver siNR1D1 to dysfunctional macrophages, restoring the NR1D1–IGF2BP2–V‐ATPase pathway, circadian regulation, phagolysosomal acidification, and antimicrobial defense.

Mechanical bowel preparation does not affect the intramucosal bacterial colony count

, 2010
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to determine if mechanical bowel preparation (MBP) influences the intramucosal bacterial colony count in the colon. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Macroscopically normal colon mucosa was collected from 37 patients (20 with and ...

Decoding Viral Transmission Dynamics in Structured Populations Using a Microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip Platform

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip experimentally recreates structured contact networks to quantify viral transmission dynamics. By controlling susceptible, infected, and non‐susceptible populations, the platform reveals how contact topology governs the reproduction number, outbreak propagation, herd‐immunity–like behavior, and intervention ...

Microbial analysis of bottled drinking water sold in the markets

, 1994
Six brands of bottled drinking water sold in the market were studied. Ten samples of each brand were collected and analyzed for the heterotrophic microbial counts and for the presence of coliform organisms. The colony forming units per milliliter (cfu/ml.
