Electrospun nanofibers from bacterial cellulose and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) offer sustainable bio‐derived scaffolds. These novel eco‐friendly materials demonstrate good cytocompatibility with NG108 neuronal cells. The blend approach enables the creation of versatile materials with tunable properties, openingp avenues for various tissue engineering

Giant water clusters: where are they from?
A new mechanism for the formation and destruction of giant water clusters described in the literature is proposed. We have earlier suggested that the clusters are associates of liquid crystal spheres (LCS), each of which is formed around a seed particle,

Estuarine Nitrifiers: New Players, Patterns and Processes [PDF]
Ever since the first descriptions of ammonia-oxidizing Bacteria by Winogradsky in the late 1800s, the metabolic capability of aerobic ammonia oxidation has been restricted to a phylogenetically narrow group of bacteria.
