Temporal Dynamics of Microbial Community Composition and Antimicrobial Resistance in a Mass Gathering Setting Using Culturomics and Metagenomic Approaches

Journal of Epidemiology and Global Health
Introduction Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the major global concerns in the current scenario. Mass-gathering events in fast-developing and densely populated areas may contribute to antibiotic resistance.

Bioinspired Co‐Assembly Enables Multiscale Architected Hydrogels for 3D Printing With Integrated Antibacterial and Bioactive Functions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A multicomponent supramolecular hydrogel integrating cell‐adhesive and antibacterial peptides within an alginate‐cellulose nanofibril matrix is developed. Peptide co‐assembly simultaneously strengthens the hydrogel network, improves extrusion printability, and imparts cell‐adhesive and antibacterial functions, offering a versatile platform for ...

Alpine Grasslands Harbor Greater Soil Microbial Diversity and More Stable Microbial Co-Occurrence Networks than Alpine Deserts on the Tibetan Plateau

Alpine grasslands and alpine deserts represent two major ecosystems on the Tibetan Plateau. However, whether the two ecosystems differ in soil microbial community diversity and co-occurrence network structure remains poorly understood.

Seasonality Affects the Diversity and Composition of Bacterioplankton Communities in Dongjiang River, a Drinking Water Source of Hong Kong

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Water quality ranks the most vital criterion for rivers serving as drinking water sources, which periodically changes over seasons. Such fluctuation is believed associated with the state shifts of bacterial community within.

Harnessing the landscape of microbial culture media to predict new organism–media pairings

Nature Communications, 2015
Culturing microorganisms is a critical step in understanding and utilizing microbial life. Here we map the landscape of existing culture media by extracting natural-language media recipes into a Known Media Database (KOMODO), which includes >18,000 ...

Genetically Programmed Shape‐Morphing of Engineered Living Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, bacterial and mammalian engineered living materials (ELMs) are presented, in which living cells direct genetically programmed and enzymatically mediated shape‐morphing. The resulting deformation and shape‐recovery can be actuated in a genetically controlled manner by an ELM incorporating out‐of‐equilibrium counteracting biochemical reactions with
