Exposure of a bacterial culture to an antibiotic or other lethal stress typically results in the generation of sub-populations of live cells ("persisters") and dead cells, and, in some cases, viable but non-culturable cells. Studies aimed at understanding ...
The first biomimetic total synthesis of the iron chelator anachelin H isolated from the cyanobacterium Anabaena cylindrica is reported. A first generation approach delivered one enantiomeric series of the polyketide fragment. Comparison of the 1H NMR data ...
In this paper we will present the Brillouin scattering properties of optical fibres as experimentally measured at ultra-low temperatures and discuss the possibilities for distributed cryogenic temperature sensing, accordingly. We then present a first examp ...
Cultivation-independent microbial molecular ecology approaches were used to examine the effects of antibiotic growth promoters on the pig ileal microbiota. Five-week-old barrows were fitted with a simple T-cannula at the distal ileum. Three diets meeting o ...
The power of two! A natural product hybrid (see structure) composed of a siderophore and an antibiotic separated by a poly(ethylene glycol) linker enables the preparation of antimicrobial and cell-resistant surfaces by a simple dip-and-rinse procedure. The ...
A systematic experimental study was performed to elucidate the conditions for which cellular patterns of diluted hydrogen diffusion flames near extinction were observed. The formation of cellular instabilities was studied for several burners: jet burners ( ...
The effort to apply synchrotron spectromicroscopy techniques to life science problems is definitely beyond the feasibility-test stage. Furthermore, the commissioning of ultrabright, third-generation soft-X-ray sources such as Elettra in Trieste or the adva ...
Generation of stable transgenic embryonic stem (ES) cell lines by classic transfection is still a difficult task, requiring time-consuming clonal selection, and hampered by clonal artifacts and gene silencing. Here we describe a novel system that allows co ...
A new multiplexing schedule is derived for multiplexing holograms in photorefractive polymers which do not exhibit mono-exponential recording behavior. An M-number (M/#) of 0.3 was measured experimentally by recording 20 holograms of roughly equal strength ...
