Antibiofilm activity of a chionodracine‐derived peptide by NMR‐based metabolomics of cell‐free supernatant of Acinetobacter baumannii clinical strains

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KHS‐Cnd peptide is able to impair biofilm formation and disaggregate mature biofilms in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. Differences in extracellular metabolites reflect changes in biofilm metabolism due to KHS‐Cnd treatment. Among the differentially represented extracellular metabolites upon KHS‐Cnd treatment, the significantly altered ...

Deposition of Nickel-tungsten-phosphorus Coatings on Pure Copper in a Saline Water Environment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2021
Corrosion of copper caused by chloride species restricts advances in the maritime industry. In the present study, ternary Ni-W-P alloys were electrodeposited on copper in DC current mode to improve the corrosion resistance of the matrix.

Experimental investigation on the hydrogen embrittlement characteristics and mechanism of natural gas-hydrogen transportation pipeline steels

open access: yesMaterials Research Express, 2022
Hydrogen blended with natural gas is one of the best ways for large-scale hydrogen transportation; however, pipeline steels exploited for transferring natural gas have the risk of hydrogen embrittlement.

Tensile Armor Wires Submitted to Slow Strain Rate Tests in a Corrosive Environment and Cathodic Protection: a Comparison Between Two Different Microstructures

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2019
Tensile armor in flexible pipes consists of two or more layers of steel wires. Damage to the outer sheath may cause ingress of seawater in the annular space and thus corrosion of the armor wires.

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

The delayed fracture evaluation of high tensile steel sheet, and the influence of experimental methods

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2019
In order to apply the high strength steel sheet with tensile strength is above 1200MPa, it is necessary to assess the delayed fracture susceptibility caused by hydrogen entering from the environment where steel components are exposed, and also necessary ...

Estimation of environment-induced crack growth rate as a function of stress intensity factors generated during slow strain rate testing of aluminum alloys

open access: yesCorrosion reviews, 2019
In this contribution, we introduce a simple approach to quickly estimate the environment-induced crack velocity (CV) as a function of the calculated applied stress intensity factor (K) developed during the slow strain rate testing of aluminum alloys ...

Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.
