This study examines how different laser‐patterned copper and brass surfaces, including copper coatings, affect the survival of vancomycin‐resistant Enterococcus faecium. Using microscopy and genome analysis, the results show that copper tolerance varies between strains and can increase after vancomycin exposure.

Deep Learning Analysis of Solid‐Electrolyte Interphase Microstructures in Lithium‐Ion Batteries
A transformer‐based deep learning model is developed for segmenting and analyzing high‐resolution TEM images of the solid‐electrolyte interphase (SEI) in lithium‐ion batteries. The model is trained on DFT‐based simulated images and predicts SEI grain and grain boundaries, revealing key microstructural features that govern ion transport and degradation.

This work explores the antimicrobial action of AZO‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag nanocoatings on plastic, demonstrating good efficacy against highly‐critical antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, yeast, and virus. A multi‐assay approach is here exploited to inspect the contribution of direct and indirect antimicrobial mechanisms, and potential human toxicity is also ...
