PDMS filter structures for size-dependent larval sorting and on-chip egg extraction of C. elegans
Martinus Gijs, Furkan Ayhan, Hüseyin Baris Atakan
C. elegans-based assays require age-synchronized populations prior to experimentation to achieve standardized sets of worm populations, due to which age-induced heterogeneous phenotyping effects can be avoided. There have been several approaches to synchro ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2020Risk Perception and Epidemics in Complex Computer Networks
We present a self-organised method for quickly obtaining the epidemic threshold of infective processes on networks. Starting from simple percolation models, we introduce the possibility that the effective infection probability is affected by the perception ...
IEEE2018Pore-forming toxins: ancient, but never really out of fashion
Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Matteo Dal Peraro
Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) are virulence factors produced by many pathogenic bacteria and have long fascinated structural biologists, microbiologists and immunologists. Interestingly, pore-forming proteins with remarkably similar structures to PFTs are fou ...
Nature Publishing Group2016Concerted Activity of IgG1 Antibodies and IL-4/IL-25-Dependent Effector Cells Trap Helminth Larvae in the Tissues following Vaccination with Defined Secreted Antigens, Providing Sterile Immunity to Challenge Infection
Nicola Harris, Julia Esser-von Bieren
Over 25% of the world's population are infected with helminth parasites, the majority of which colonise the gastrointestinal tract. However, no vaccine is yet available for human use, and mechanisms of protective immunity remain unclear. In the mouse model ...
Public Library of Science2015Impact sanitaire de l'utilisation d'eaux polluées en agriculture urbaine. Cas du maraîchage à Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso)
In Ouagadougou and in many similar Sahelian cities, urban agriculture uses very often polluted water for irrigation of vegetables, including those that are likely to be eaten uncooked. As the pathogenic germs can survive long enough in water, soil and plan ...
