This study examines how different laser‐patterned copper and brass surfaces, including copper coatings, affect the survival of vancomycin‐resistant Enterococcus faecium. Using microscopy and genome analysis, the results show that copper tolerance varies between strains and can increase after vancomycin exposure.

A novel multi‐modal anion exchange membrane (MMAEX) is successfully fabricated for separating empty and full AAV2 capsids. The functionalized membrane has an average pore size of 0.5 µm and exhibits both charge and hydrophobic functionality. A full capsid recovery of 72.9% at 85.3% purity with gradient elution, or 70.3% recovery at 92.2% purity with ...
