High amounts of antibiotic resistance genes and Class I integrons are disseminated in rivers of the Mekong delta (Viet Nam) from the effluents of intensive shrimp farms

Pierre Rossi, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Emmanuelle Rohrbach

In the Mekong delta, intensive shrimp farming rely heavily on a wide panel of antibiotics (ABs) to prevent disease epidemics. Consequently, large amounts of antibiotic multi-resistant bacteria are emerging, threatening adjacent aquatic habitats used for ir ...

Evaluation des flux de biphényles polychlorés (PCBs) dans les affluents du lac Léman à l’aide de capteurs passifs

The aim of this study is to investigate Lake Geneva’s tributaries using passive samplers in order to establish polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) fluxes. Silicon rubber sheets are therefore deployed during six weeks at the mouth of eight tributaries and in fou ...

Low density polyethylene (LDPE) passive samplers for the investigation of PCB point sources in rivers

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Nicolas Estoppey, Julien Omlin, Adrien Schopfer

This study aims to provide a passive sampling approach which can be routinely used to investigate polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) sources in rivers. The approach consists of deploying low density polyeth- ylene (LDPE) strips downstream and upstream of poten ...

Magnetron-Sputtered Ag Surfaces. New Evidence for the Nature of the Ag Ions Intervening in Bacterial Inactivation

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Rosendo Sanjines

DC-magnetron sputtering with an Ag target on textile surfaces produced Ag particles with sizes similar to 4.7 nm (+/- 15%). Sputtering for 15 s led to Ag layers of 15-20 nm. The threshold sputtering time precluding airborne bacterial growth was about 60 s. ...

Crazing and fracture in polymers. micromechanisms and effect of molecular variables

John Christopher Plummer

The influence of the primary molecular parameters chain configuration, architecture and molecular weight (MW) on the mode of mechanical breakdown is discussed for two series of (amorphous) thermoplastic polymers, methyl methacrylate glutarimide copolymers ...

Differential Expression of GAD65 and GAD67 in Human, Rat, and Mouse Pancreatic Islets

Steinunn Baekkeskov Hanahan, Ji Hyun Kim

The smaller form of the autoantigen glutamic acid decarboxylase, GAD65 (formerly the 64,000 Mr autoantigen), is a major target of humoral autoimmunity in type I diabetes. Human autoantisera have been used extensively to characterize the GAD65 antigen in bo ...
