Microbiomes of the built environment: a systematic literature review

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment
This systematic literature review explores the critical role of microbiomes in the built environment (MoBE) and their impact on public health, particularly in pathogen transmission and infection control. Microbial communities in indoor and outdoor spaces

Surface Plasmon Polaritons on Metallic Surfaces

open access: yesOptics and Photonics News, 2007
A unified theoretical study of surface plasmon polaritons on flat metallic surfaces and interfaces is undertaken to clarify the nature of these electromagnetic waves, conditions under which they are launched, and the restrictions imposed by Maxwell's equations that ultimately determine the strength of the excited plasmons. Finite Difference Time Domain

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Factors of estimating flatness error as a surface requirement of exploitation

open access: yesMetalurgija, 2015
This study considers the impact of surface quality (surface roughness) on estimating flatness error when measurements are performed using coordinate measuring machine (CMM). Flatness error is estimated using various association methods and various sample

Sorting of droplets by migration on structured surfaces

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2011
Background: Controlled transport of microdroplets is a topic of interest for various applications. It is well known that liquid droplets move towards areas of minimum contact angle if placed on a flat solid surface exhibiting a gradient of contact angle.

Land use in selected erosion-risk areas of Tertiary low hills in Slovenia

open access: yesActa Geographica Slovenica, 2006
In this article we determine the potential erosion risk of sites with respect to surface morphology and how it is related to the distribution of individual types of land use. We investigated the relationship between relief factors affecting erosion risk (
