Two distinct alcohol dehydrogenase classes mediate bacterial 2‐hydroxyethylphosphonate catabolism

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Phosphonates are molecules containing a direct carbon‐phosphorus bond. In nature, these compounds are produced by a variety of organisms, and many environmental microbes are able to degrade specific phosphonates and feed on them. This work focuses on 2‐hydroxyethylphosphonate (HEP)—a natural compound that is found frequently in the environment,

Programmable 3D Microfluidics Reveals Motility‐Driven Antibiotic Resistance Evolution in Gradients

Small, Volume 22, Issue 59, 22 October 2026.
Using a programmable microfluidic platform, this study shows that bacterial motility is crucial for resistance development in heterogeneous antibiotic landscapes. Motile Escherichia coli randomly migrates along antibiotic gradients, and sufficient movement is required for resistance to emerge.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.
