Revealing Antibiotic Tolerance of the Mycobacterium smegmatis Xanthine/Uracil Permease Mutant Using Microfluidics and Single-Cell Analysis

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Meltem Elitas

To reveal rare phenotypes in bacterial populations, conventional microbiology tools should be advanced to generate rapid, quantitative, accurate, and high-throughput data. The main drawbacks of widely used traditional methods for antibiotic studies include ...

A simple micropreparative gel electrophoresis technique for purification of proteins, nucleic acids, and bioconjugates

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian, Sayyed Hashem Sajjadi, Shang-Jung Wu, Vitalijs Zubkovs

The biochemical and biomedical fields hinge on the ability to effectively separate and purify biological macromolecules. Though this need is largely addressed with a variety of chromatographic and electrophoretic purification techniques, such techniques ar ...

The FDA-Approved Drug Nelfinavir Inhibits Lytic Cell-Free but Not Cell-Associated Nonlytic Transmission of Human Adenovirus

Gerardo Turcatti, Fabien Kuttler

Adenoviruses (AdVs) are prevalent and give rise to chronic and re-current disease. Human AdV (HAdV) species B and C, such as HAdV-C2, -C5, and-B14, cause respiratory disease and constitute a health threat for immunocom-promised individuals. HAdV-Cs are wel ...

Structure and Function of the T4 Spackle Protein Gp61.3

Petr Leiman, Alec Fraser

The bacteriophage T4 genome contains two genes that code for proteins with lysozyme activity-e and 5. Gene e encodes the well-known T4 lysozyme (commonly called T4L) that functions to break the peptidoglycan layer late in the infection cycle, which is requ ...

Mechanisms protecting host cells against bacterial pore-forming toxins

Francisco De Magalhães Sarmento R De Mesquita

Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) are key virulence determinants produced and secreted by a variety of human bacterial pathogens. They disrupt the plasma membrane (PM) by generating stable protein pores, which allow uncontrolled exchanges between the extracellula ...

Evaluation of Auramine O staining and conventional PCR for leprosy diagnosis: A comparative cross-sectional study from Ethiopia

Stewart Cole, Charlotte Avanzi, Philippe Busso

Background Diagnosis of leprosy mainly relies on clinical examination due to the inconsistent sensitivity and poor reproducibility of the current laboratory tests. Utilisation of alternative methods to the standard Ziehl Neelsen (ZN), Fite-Faraco (FF) and ...

Sputtered Gum metal thin films showing bacterial inactivation and biocompatibility

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi

Super-elastic Titanium based thin films Ti-23Nb-0.7Ta-2Zr-(O) (TNTZ-O) and Ti-24Nb-(N) (TN-N) (at.%) were deposited by direct current magnetron sputtering (DCMS) in different reactive atmospheres. The effects of oxygen doping (TNTZ-O) and/or nitrogen dopin ...

New evidence for Cu-decorated binary-oxides mediating bacterial inactivation/mineralization in aerobic media

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Michaël Bensimon, Sami Rtimi

Binary oxide semiconductors TiO2-ZrO2 and Cu-decorated TiO2-ZrO2 (TiO2-ZrO2-Cu) uniform films were sputtered on polyester (PES). These films were irradiated under low intensity solar simulated light and led to bacterial inactivation in aerobic and anaerobi ...

Quantitative Single-Cell Analysis of Host-Pathogen Interactions

Matthieu Jean-Hubert Delincé

During infection, microbial pathogens encounter phagocytic cells of the host innate immune system, such as macrophages and neutrophils. These encounters typically lead to uptake and killing of the bacteria by the host cell or, conversely, parasitization of ...

Quasi-Instantaneous Bacterial Inactivation on Cu-Ag Nanoparticulate 3D Catheters in the Dark and Under Light: Mechanism and Dynamics

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Rosendo Sanjines

The first evidence for Cu-Ag (50%/50%) nanoparticulate hybrid coatings is presented leading to a complete and almost instantaneous bacterial inactivation in the dark (
