Coating Artificial Spider Silk Fiber with Magnetic FeCo: An Effective Strategy for Creating a Flexible Magneto‐Responsive Material

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An original method is presented for producing artificial spider silk fibers with magnetic and magnetomechanical responsiveness, which consists in coating them with a nanometer‐thick layer of FeCo alloy by sputtering deposition. The challenge of combining organic materials and inorganic magnetic nanostructures is addressed, thus taking a step forward ...

Production of Indole-3-Acetic Acid and Degradation of 2,4-D by Yeasts Isolated from Pollinating Insects

Microorganisms
Synthetic herbicides such as glyphosate and 2,4-D are widely used in agriculture but can negatively impact non-target organisms, including microorganisms essential for ecological balance.

Lysosome‐Acidifying Nanoparticles Rescue A30P α‐Synuclein Induced Neuronal Death in Cellular and Drosophila Models of Parkinson's Disease

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Lysosome‐targeted acidic nanoparticles based on a biodegradable poly(ethylene tetrafluorosuccinate‐co‐succinate) copolymer are engineered to restore impaired lysosomal acidification through pH‐responsive intracellular degradation. Localized acid release enhances autophagic proteolysis, reduces α‐synuclein accumulation, and preserves dopaminergic neuron

Fluoride inhibition of wine yeasts : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degress of Master of Science in Microbiology at Massey University [PDF]

, 1997
Stuck or slowed fermentations are costly in time and money to winemakers. There are many variables that can interrupt fermentation. One of the lesser known factors is the effect of fluoride on grape juice fermentations.

Dual‐Peptide Nanoplatform: Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles Functionalized With a Cell‐Penetrating Peptide and Loaded With Rationally Designed Antimicrobial Peptides for Tuberculosis Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Machine learning–guided engineering of a plectasin‐derived peptide yields DC05, a potent antimycobacterial candidate. Encapsulation into tuftsin‐functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles enhances intracellular delivery, stability, and activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis while maintaining low cytotoxicity and minimal hemolysis. The combined

Impact of Nitrogen Supplementation and Reduced Particle Size on Alcoholic Fermentation and Aroma in Nitrogen-Poor Apple and Pear Mashes

Beverages
The aim of this study was to enhance the nitrogen supply through three different mash treatments and to investigate their effects on fermentation dynamics, yeast biomass accumulation, and the concentration of aroma-active volatiles in nitrogen-poor apple

Hypothesis: is yeast a clock model to study the onset of humans aging phenotypes? [PDF]

, 2012
In this paper we report the growth and aging of yeast colonies derived from single cells isolated by micromanipulation and seeded one by one on separated plates to avoid growth interference by surrounding colonies.

Targeted Mutagenesis of the Oligopeptide Repeat Domain of the Yeast Prion Sup35 [PDF]

, 2014
The formation of prions in the baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is determined by amino acid composition rather than the primary sequence of amino acids.
