Homoeolog Inference Methods Requiring Bidirectional Best Hits or Synteny Miss Many Pairs

Shaoline Sheppard

Homoeologs are pairs of genes or chromosomes in the same species that originated by speciation and were brought back together in the same genome by allopolyploidization. Bioinformatic methods for accurate homoeology inference are crucial for studying the e ...

Structure-reactivity relations for DC-magnetron sputtered Cu-layers during E. coli inactivation in the dark and under light

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Lioubov Kiwi, Rosendo Sanjines

This study addresses unreported features for Cu DC-magnetron sputtering on cotton mediating inactivation of Escherichia coil K12 (from now on E. coil). In-depth profile for the different Cu-species inside the cotton fibers was determined by 5 key Ar+ etchi ...

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. ...
