When Bigger is Better: Lanthanum Complexes of Bis(phenoxy‐amidine) FAlen Ligands as Unique Catalysts for the Isoselective Ring‐Opening Polymerization of Racemic β‐Lactones

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 36, September 1, 2025.
Discrete lanthanum complexes supported by new bis(phenoxy‐amidine) ligands act as highly efficient ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) catalysts of simple and functional β‐propiolactones rac‐BLR under mild conditions, returning in a controlled manner the corresponding linear polymers PBLR with high isoselectivity, no matter the nature and polarity of the

Altered competitive fitness, antimicrobial susceptibility, and cellular morphology in a triclosan-induced small-colony variant of staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

, 2015
Staphylococcus aureus can produce small-colony variants (SCVs) that express various phenotypes. While their significance is unclear, SCV propagation may be influenced by relative fitness, antimicrobial susceptibility, and the underlying mechanism.

Genetic diversity of Acanthamoeba and clinical outcome predictors in Danish patients with Acanthamoeba keratitis

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 1, Page 44-51, February 2026.
Abstract Purpose Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) is a severe corneal infection with potential detrimental effects on visual outcome and quality of life, primarily affecting young contact lens wearers. We report Acanthamoeba genotypes, subtypes and clinical outcome from Danish patients with AK. Methods Thirty‐nine PCR‐positive AK cases diagnosed and treated

Purification, characterization and molecular cloning of the major chitinase from Tenebrio molitor larval midgut [PDF]

, 2006
Insect chitinases are involved in degradation of chitin from the exoskeleton cuticle or from midgut peritrophic membrane during molts. cDNAs coding for insect cuticular and gut chitinases were cloned, but only chitinases from moulting fluid were purified

Smart Nanogels as Enzyme‐Driven Nanomotors for Navigating Viscous Physiological Barriers

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 2, 5 January 2026.
Two families of urease‐powered nanomotors (NMs), with and without a p‐(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (p‐HEMA) shell, have been successfully prepared. Both types exhibit effective motion in highly viscous synovial fluid media at low urea concentrations (25 mM).

Three Consecutive Cases of Ocular Polyhexamethylene Biguanide (PHMB) Toxicity Due to Compounding Error

Cureus, 2023
Acanthamoeba keratitis is treated with long-term biguanide therapy, and the treatment itself can lead to ocular side effects. Knowledge of possible toxic complications can help in the better titration of the treatment regimen. Here, we describe the toxic side effects of polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB), which occurred in three consecutive patients ...
