Advanced Quantification Methods To Improve the 18b Dormancy Model for Assessing the Activity of Tuberculosis Drugs In Vitro

Stewart Cole, Claudia Sala

One of the reasons for the lengthy tuberculosis (TB) treatment is the difficulty to treat the nonmultiplying mycobacterial subpopulation. In order to assess the ability of (new) TB drugs to target this subpopulation, we need to incorporate dormancy models ...

Genetically encoded betaxanthin-based small-molecular fluorescent reporter for mammalian cells

Leo Scheller, Karl Gademann, Simon Sieber

We designed and engineered a dye production cassette encoding a heterologous pathway, including human tyrosine hydroxylase and Amanita muscaria 4,5-DOPA dioxygenase, for the biosynthesis of the betaxanthin family of plant and fungal pigments in mammalian c ...

Dual-Activatable Cell Tracker for Controlled and Prolonged Single-Cell Labeling

Pablo Rivera Fuentes, Salome Riccarda Püntener

Cell trackers are fluorescent chemical tools that facilitate imaging and tracking cells within live organisms. Despite their versatility, these dyes lack specificity, tend to leak outside of the cell, and stain neighboring cells. Here, we report a dual-act ...

Selective Retrieval of Individual Cells from Microfluidic Arrays Combining Dielectrophoretic Force and Directed Hydrodynamic Flow

Bart Deplancke, Carlotta Guiducci, Jörn Pezoldt, Pierre-Emmanuel Marie Thiriet, Gabriele Gambardella, Kevin Keim

Hydrodynamic-based microfluidic platforms enable single-cell arraying and analysis over time. Despite the advantages of established microfluidic systems, long-term analysis and proliferation of cells selected in such devices require off-chip recovery of ce ...

Label-free, scalable and point-of-care imaging platform for rapid analysis of biomarker

Hatice Altug, Filiz Yesilköy, Alexander Belushkin, Yasaman Jahani

We propose a disruptive point-of-care (PoC) imaging platform based on lens-free interference phase-contrast imaging for rapid detection of biomarker such as for sepsis and potentially other diseases (e.g. cancer). It enables simultaneous analysis of potent ...

A Rapid Unraveling of the Activity and Antibiotic Susceptibility of Mycobacteria

Giovanni Dietler, Sandor Kasas, Giovanni Longo, Leonardo Venturelli

The development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is a worldwide health-related emergency that calls for new tools to study the bacterial metabolism and to obtain fast diagnoses. Indeed, the conventional analysis time scale is too long and affects our abili ...

Inkjet Printed Carbon Nanotube Electrodes for Measuring Pyocyaninand Uric Acid in a Wound Fluid Simulant and Culture Media

Hubert Girault, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Milica Jovic

Polyacrylamide-coated, carbon nanotube (PA/CNT)electrodes were prepared by an ink-jet printing process and used to measure pyocyanin and uric acid in a wound fluid simulant at 37 oC.These two moleculesare potential indicators of infection and therefore the ...

Preexisting variation in DNA damage response predicts the fate of single mycobacteria under stress

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Giulia Manina, Lalit Kumar Singh

Clonal microbial populations are inherently heterogeneous, and this diversification is often considered as an adaptation strategy. In clinical infections, phenotypic diversity is found to be associated with drug tolerance, which in turn could evolve into g ...
