Membrane filtration reduces nutrient availability and invasion potential in drinking water systems, without affecting mature biofilms

Frontiers in Microbiology
Ensuring biostable drinking water is a growing priority for drinking water utilities, especially in non- or minimally chlorinated distribution systems where microbial regrowth is controlled through nutrient limitation.

Stochastic spatial models of host-pathogen and host-mutualist interactions I

, 2006
Mutualists and pathogens, collectively called symbionts, are ubiquitous in plant communities. While some symbionts are highly host-specific, others associate with multiple hosts.

Harnessing Next‐Generation 3D Cancer Models to Elucidate Tumor‐Microbiome Crosstalk

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Centralizes the microbiome within 3D tumor‐microbiome model platforms, including spheroids, organoids, 3D‐bioprinted constructs, and microfluidic chips, each enabling structured host‐tumor‐microbe studies. These systems support bacterial colonization, facilitating investigation of microbial impacts on tumor growth, immunity, and therapy. The microbiome

Efficient Low‐temperature Ammonia Cracking Enabled by Strained Heterostructure Interfaces on Ru‐free Catalyst

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Leveraging the strong metal‐support interaction effect, heterostructured interfaces in a Co‐based catalyst are designed to enable low‐temperature ammonia (NH3) decomposition. The induced tensile lattice strain within the core‐shell structure modulates d‐band center of Co, enhancing NH3 adsorption and facilitating N─H bond dissociation. Furthermore, the

Interactions Between Active Matters and Endogenous Fields

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes endogenous field information and computational methods in contexts such as cancer, wounds, and biofilms. It organizes NAMs and AAMs by sensing, transmitting, and executing functions, compares their limitations, and from these contrasts proposes design strategies for next‐generation AAMs, offering perspectives to foster ...

Diazotrophs and N2-Fixation Associated With Particles in Coastal Estuarine Waters

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Putative heterotrophic bacteria carrying out N2-fixation, so-called non-cyanobacterial diazotrophs (NCDs), are widely distributed in marine waters, but details of how the O2-inhibited N2-fixation process is promoted in the oxic water column remains ...

Cauchy's formulas for random walks in bounded domains

, 2014
Cauchy's formula was originally established for random straight paths crossing a body $B \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ and basically relates the average chord length through $B$ to the ratio between the volume and the surface of the body itself.

Sequential Bayesian inference for implicit hidden Markov models and current limitations

, 2015
Hidden Markov models can describe time series arising in various fields of science, by treating the data as noisy measurements of an arbitrarily complex Markov process.
