Indication of spatially random infection of chlamydia-like organisms in Bufo bufo tadpoles from ponds located in the Geneva metropolitan area

Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni, Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco, Estelle Rochat, Elia Vajana, Ivo Widmer

Occurrence of bacteria belonging to the order Chlamydiales was investigated for the first time in common toad (Bufo bufo) tadpole populations collected from 41 ponds in the Geneva metropolitan area, Switzerland. A Chlamydiales-specific Real-Time PCR was us ...

Bacterial traps and advances in nanobiotechnology for atomic force microscopy

Oliver Peric

The atomic force microscope (AFM) allows the analysis of living microorganisms in physiological conditions on the nanometer scale. The observation of bacteria in physiological aqueous medium necessitates a robust immobilization of the bacterium to the surf ...

Gram-type differentiation of bacteria with 2D hollow photonic crystal cavities

Romuald Houdré, Rita Therisod

Fast and label-free techniques to analyze viruses and bacteria are of crucial interest in biological and bio-medical applications. For this purpose, optofluidic systems based on the integration of photonic structures with microfluidic layers were shown to ...

Modularity and determinants of a (bi-)polarization control system from free-living and obligate intracellular bacteria

Suliana Manley, Seamus John Holden

Although free-living and obligate intracellular bacteria are both polarized it is unclear whether the underlying polarization mechanisms and effector proteins are conserved. Here we dissect at the cytological, functional and structural level a conserved po ...

The mechanical world of bacteria

Alexandre Louis André Persat

In the wild, bacteria are predominantly associated with surfaces as opposed to existing as free-swimming, isolated organisms. They are thus subject to surface-specific mechanics, including hydrodynamic forces, adhesive forces, the rheology of their surroun ...
