Legionella organisms are prevalent in manmade water systems and cause legionellosis in humans. A rapid detection method for viable Legionella cells combining ethidium monoazide (EMA) and PCR/real-time PCR was assessed. EMA could specifically intercalate and cleave the genomic DNA of
To determine whether bacterial colonization of drains can be reduced by local antiseptic interventions. Drains are a potential source of bacterial entry into surgical wounds and may contribute to surgical site infection after breast surgery. After institutional review board approval
DNA-derived measurements of biological composition have the potential to produce data covering all of life, and provide a tantalizing proposition for researchers and managers. We used metabarcoding to compare benthic eukaryote composition from five estuaries of varying condition. In contrast
In diabetes, toxic oxidative pathways are triggered by persistent hyperglycemia and contribute to diabetes complications. A major proposed pathogenic mechanism is the accumulation of protein modifications that are called advanced glycation end products. However, other nonenzymatic post-translational modifications may also

The hydrophobic interior of a liposome membrane was used as a platform for the organic synthesis of hydrophobic compounds in water. The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of benzonitrile oxide (BNO) and N-ethylmaleimide (EMI) in liposome suspensions was carried out, and an increase
