Acne vulgaris, caused by the Gram-positive bacterium Cutibacterium acnes, is a prevalent dermatologic condition with substantial cutaneous and psychological morbidity. Mild acne is treated with topical antibiotics with more severe inflammatory forms requiring the prolonged use of oral antibiotics, resulting
The use of DNA markers has revolutionized selection in crop breeding by linkage mapping and QTL analysis, but major problems still remain for polyploid species where marker-assisted selection lags behind the situation in diploids because of its high genome complexity.
Solid-state nanopores promise a scalable platform for single-molecule DNA analysis. Direct, real-time identification of nucleobases in DNA strands is still limited by the sensitivity and the spatial resolution of established ionic sensing strategies. Here, we study a different but promising
UV-A radiation (320-400 nm) induces damages to the DNA molecule and its components through photosensitized reactions. Pterins, heterocyclic compounds widespread in biological systems, participate in relevant biological processes and are able to act as photosensitizers. We have investigated the photosensitization
