From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

Small, Volume 22, Issue 16, 17 March 2026.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.

Bioengineered Bacterial Vesicles and Biomimetic Hybrids Eliminate Biofilms and Balance the Gut Microbiome

Small, Volume 22, Issue 16, 17 March 2026.
Biomimetic nanocarriers based on liposomes and Myxobacteria outer‐membrane vesicles (OMVs) are effective antibiotic delivery systems. Hybrids have a higher drug loading and can target intracellular pathogens, while OMVs evade immune clearance. Biomimetic nanoantibiotics effectively eliminate the biofilms of Gram‐negative bacteria. Besides, Myxobacteria

Strategies for Mitigating Seasonal Heavy Metal Release in River Sediments Using Natural Mineral‐Based Materials

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents an ecological and geochemical assessment of trace element contamination in the Huyva River (Ukraine), a right tributary of the Teteriv River that supplies drinking water to Zhytomyr and nearby settlements. The research involved monitoring key physicochemical parameters, including pH, mineralization, hardness, and major ion ...

Limits for Axial Motion in Cone Beam Computed Tomography

X-Ray Spectrometry, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 266-275, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Computed Tomography (CT) is a technique that allows the non‐destructive evaluation of internal structures of objects, producing cross‐sectional images. In many situations, it is necessary to explore objects with dimensions larger than the tomographic arrangement.
