Structure–property relationships of reduced graphene oxide membranes intercalated with polycyclic aromatics

open access: yesAIChE Journal, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Graphene oxide (GO) membranes intercalated with various organic moieties have shown excellent potential for a range of water processing applications. However, microstructure–functional property relationships in these structurally disordered membranes are not well understood.

Deciphering Physiological Functions of AHL Quorum Quenching Acylases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
N-Acylhomoserine lactone (AHL)-acylase (also known as amidase or amidohydrolase) is a class of enzyme that belongs to the Ntn-hydrolase superfamily. As the name implies, AHL-acylases are capable of hydrolysing AHLs, the most studied signaling molecules for quorum sensing in Gram-negative bacteria.

Buffer 4‐Ethylmorpholinium/Acetate: Exploring a New Alternative Buffer for Native Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 39, Issue 14, 30 July 2025.
ABSTRACT Rationale To perform native mass spectrometry (MS) studies, there are a limited number of volatile and electrospray ionization (ESI)‐MS compatible solutions, such as ammonium bicarbonate and ammonium acetate (AA). These solutions could induce the unfolding of proteins due to the formation of CO2 bubbles or induced acidification during ESI ...

Quorum Quenching in Culturable Phyllosphere Bacteria from Tobacco [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2013
Many Gram-negative plant pathogenic bacteria employ a N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL)-based quorum sensing (QS) system to regulate their virulence traits. A sustainable biocontrol strategy has been developed using quorum quenching (QQ) bacteria to interfere with QS and protect plants from pathogens. Here, the prevalence and the diversity of QQ strains

Carbon‐Based Flexible Electrode for Efficient Electrochemical Generation of Reactive Chlorine Species in Tumor Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 17, July 4, 2025.
A flexible electrode loaded with a carbon nanowire network (CC@C‐NWN) is developed for electrochemically generating reactive chlorine species (RCS) from abundant chloride ions in body fluids for tumor therapy. CC@C‐NWN enhances chlorine evolution, inducing redox dysregulation and synergistic apoptosis‐ferroptosis in tumor cells.
