Chain formation mediated by Escherichia coli immunoglobulin-binding proteins EibD and EibG depends on expression levels and localization of proteins

open access: yesScientific Reports
Escherichia coli expresses immunoglobulin-binding proteins (Eib), a subgroup of trimeric autotransporter adhesins (TAA). Subtypes of Eib proteins mediate unique chain-like adherence patterns and autoaggregation.

An institutional sociology perspective of the implementation of activity based costing by Spanish health care institutions [PDF]

open access: yes
According to institutional sociology, hospitals will respond to external environmental pressures and adopt Activity-Based-Costing (ABC). This theory overemphasizes conformity and fails to consider the advantages of organizational non-conformance.

Antibiotics and phages drive region-specific diversity of OmpK36 in Klebsiella pneumoniae

open access: yesmBio
The Enterobacterales outer membrane is impermeable to many antibiotics, but they can enter the cell via channel proteins, called porins. In Klebsiella pneumoniae, the porin OmpK36 is a major determinant of antibiotic resistance.

Advancing Electrochemical Nitrate Reduction: Overcoming Rate‐Limiting Bottlenecks with Copper/Cobalt Catalysts

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This paper synthesizes CuO@CuCo2O4 catalysts via an emulsion hydrothermal method. Among them, CuCuCo2O4 perfectly inherits the advantages of CuO and Co3O4 and successfully connects the reactions in series. During the electrolysis process, CuO is reduced to Cu.

Cool Kitchen: Processing Starch and Eggshell Powder into Sustainable Coatings for Passive Daytime Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A food‐grade cooling composite made from starch and recycled eggshell powder offers a scalable, ultra‐low‐cost solution for passive daytime radiative cooling. Easily prepared using basic kitchen tools, this material empowers communities, even in areas with limited infrastructure, to stay cooler during worsening summer heat waves.

Novel Research Models for Staphylococcus aureus Small Colony Variants (SCV) Development: Co-pathogenesis and Growth Rate

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Staphylococcus aureus remains a great burden on the healthcare system. Despite prescribed treatments often seemingly to be successful, S. aureus can survive and cause a relapsing infection which cannot be cleared.
