Breakthrough Solution for Antimicrobial Resistance Detection: Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy‐based on Artificial Intelligence

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView., 2023
This review discusses the use of Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) combined with Artificial Intelligence (AI) for detecting antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Various SERS studies used with AI techniques, including machine learning and deep learning, are analyzed for their advantages and limitations.

Generalized Euler-Lotka equation for correlated cell divisions [PDF]

Phys. Rev. E 103, 060402 (2021), 2021
Cell division times in microbial populations display significant fluctuations, that impact the population growth rate in a non-trivial way. If fluctuations are uncorrelated among different cells, the population growth rate is predicted by the Euler-Lotka equation, which is a classic result in mathematical biology.

Considering Intra-individual Genetic Heterogeneity to Understand Biodiversity [PDF]

, 2019
In this chapter, I am concerned with the concept of Intra-individual Genetic Hetereogeneity (IGH) and its potential influence on biodiversity estimates. Definitions of biological individuality are often indirectly dependent on genetic sampling -and vice ...

Tradeoffs between microbial growth phases lead to frequency-dependent and non-transitive selection [PDF]

Proc R Soc B 285: 20172459, 2018, 2016
Mutations in a microbial population can increase the frequency of a genotype not only by increasing its exponential growth rate, but also by decreasing its lag time or adjusting the yield (resource efficiency). The contribution of multiple life-history traits to selection is a critical question for evolutionary biology as we seek to predict the ...

Mycorrhizal association of common European tree species shapes biomass and metabolic activity of bacterial and fungal communities in soil [PDF]

In: Soil Biology & Biochemistry. 2020 ; Vol. 149, 2020
Recent studies have revealed effects of various tree species on soil physical and chemical properties. However, effects of various tree species on composition and activity of soil microbiota and the relevant controls remain poorly understood. We evaluated the influence of tree species associated with two different mycorrhizal types, ectomycorrhiza (EcM)

Microbial metabolism: optimal control of uptake versus synthesis [PDF]

, 2014
Microbes require several complex organic molecules for growth. A species may obtain a required factor by taking up molecules released by other species or by synthesizing the molecule.

Heterogeneity in pure microbial systems: experimental measurements and modeling [PDF]

, 2017
Cellular heterogeneity influences bioprocess performance in ways that until date are not completely elucidated. In order to account for this phenomenon in the design and operation of bioprocesses, reliable analytical and mathematical descriptions are ...

Giant number fluctuations in microbial ecologies [PDF]

Journal Theoretical Biology, Vol. 308, pp. 96-104 (2012), 2012
Statistical fluctuations in population sizes of microbes may be quite large depending on the nature of their underlying stochastic dynamics. For example, the variance of the population size of a microbe undergoing a pure birth process with unlimited resources is proportional to the square of its mean.

Life-History traits and the replicator equation [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Due to the relevance for conservation biology, there is an increasing interest to extend evolutionary genomics models to plant, animal or microbial species. However, this requires to understand the effect of life-history traits absent in humans on genomic evolution. In this context, it is fundamentally of interest to generalize the replicator equation,
