Biostimulation as a remediation strategy post uranium acidic in situ recovery

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Pierre Rossi, Thomas Coral, Brian Carl Reinsch

A large fraction (47%) of the world’s uranium is mined by a technique called “In Situ Recovery”. This mining technique involves the injection of a leaching fluid (acid or alkaline) into a uranium-bearing aquifer and the pumping of the resulting solution th ...

Yersinia enterocolitica type III secretion injectisomes form regularly spaced clusters, which incorporate new machines upon activation

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

Bacterial type III secretion systems or injectisomes are multiprotein complexes directly transporting bacterial effector proteins into eukaryotic host cells. To investigate the distribution of injectisomes in the bacterium and the influence of activation o ...

Atomic structures of a bactericidal contractile nanotube in its pre- and postcontraction states

Petr Leiman, Peng Ge

R-type pyocins are representatives of contractile ejection systems, a class of biological nanomachines that includes, among others, the bacterial type VI secretion system (T6SS) and contractile bacteriophage tails. We report atomic models of the Pseudomona ...

Localization of adhesins on the surface of a pathogenic bacterial envelope through atomic force microscopy

Sandor Kasas, Giovanni Longo, Petar Stupar

Bacterial adhesion is the first and a significant step in establishing infection. This adhesion normally occurs in the presence of flow of fluids. Therefore, bacterial adhesins must be able to provide high strength interactions with their target surface in ...

Antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles: A surface science insight

Francesco Stellacci, Benjamin Timothée Nicolas Le Ouay

Silver nanoparticles constitute a very promising approach for the development of new antimicrobial systems. Nanoparticulate objects can bring significant improvements in the antibacterial activity of this element, through specific effect such as an adsorpt ...

Structure of EspB, a secreted substrate of the ESX-1 secretion system of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Florence Pojer, Jérémie Piton, Aleksandre Japaridze

Mycobacterium tuberculosis secretes multiple virulence factors during infection via the general Sec and Tat pathways, and via specialized ESX secretion systems, also referred to as type VII secretion systems. The ESX-1 secretion system is an important viru ...

Dielectrophoresis-based purification of antibiotic-treated bacterial subpopulations

Philippe Renaud, John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Rodrigo Martinez Duarte, Meltem Elitas

Persistence of bacteria during antibiotic therapy is a widespread phenomenon, of particular importance in refractory mycobacterial infections such as leprosy and tuberculosis. Persistence is characterized by the phenotypic tolerance of a subpopulation of b ...

New evidence for TiO2 uniform surfaces leading to complete bacterial reduction in the dark: Critical issues

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Danièle Laub, Sami Rtimi, Jelena Nesic

This study presents new evidence for the events leading to Escherichia coil reduction in the absence of light irradiation on TiO2-polyester (from now on TiO2-PES. By transmission electron microscopy (TEM) the diffusion of TiO2 NP's aggregates with the E. c ...
