Visualization of the Two-Phase Flow Behavior Involved in Enhanced Dense Phase Carbon Dioxide Pasteurization by Means of High-Speed Imaging

Fluids, 2023
This research explores the two-phase flow behavior involved in enhanced dense phase carbon dioxide inactivation of E. coli DH5α, which has been shown to possess a high microbial reduction efficiency of up to 3.7 ± 0.4 log.

Type I interferons modulate autophagy to shape gemcitabine response in pancreatic cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Type I interferons differentially modulate autophagy and the response of pancreatic cancer cells to gemcitabine. IFNα2b stimulates autophagic flux and protects cells from gemcitabine‐induced cell death, contributing to chemoresistance. In contrast, IFNβ1a inhibits autophagosome formation and enhances gemcitabine‐induced cell death, resulting in ...

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
