Recombinant Proteins: A Molecular Tool to Understand Marine Adhesion and to Advance Biomaterials
The production of recombinant proteins represents a fundamental step in the characterisation of marine invertebrate adhesives and in the development of bio‐inspired glues. The association of these proteins with other components such as ions, proteins, polysaccharides, or polymers enables the fabrication of biomaterials for various healthcare ...

Granular Hydrogels as Modular Biomaterials: From Structural Design to Biological Responses
Granular hydrogels are now emerging as promising biomaterials due to their inherent microporousity, injectability, and modularity. They have shown improvements in cell viability and migration, cellular/tissue infiltration, host tissue integration, mitigated foreign body response, and tissue regeneration.

We studied nutrition requirements of small colony mutants ofStaph. aureus, that are resistant to 10, 000γ/ml of SM, and also the resistance against SM, of large colony strain arising out of reverse mutation, and obtained the following results.1. When cultured in the media containing hemoglobin, glutamic acid, glucose, glycerin, filtrate of live ...

Beyond Bioactive Glass Composition: Using Morphology to Improve in Vitro and in Vivo Performance
Bioactive glasses can easily be shaped into granules, spheres, discs, fibers, or three‐dimensional scaffolds. The resulting morphology not only affects handling properties; it has a direct influence on various glass properties, including results of acellular immersion experiments or in vitro studies with cells or bacteria, but also on in vivo ...

The Staphylococcus aureus “superbug” [PDF]
There has been some debate about the disease-invoking potential of Staphylococcus aureus strains and whether invasive disease is associated with particularly virulent genotypes, or "superbugs." A study in this issue of the JCI describes the genotyping of a large collection of nonclinical, commensal S.
