Two-year analysis of Clostridium difficile ribotypes associated with increased severity.
...Published in The Journal of hospital infection
Certain Clostridium difficile ribotypes have been associated with complex disease phenotypes including recurrence and increased severity, especially the well-described hypervirulent RT027. This study aimed to determine the pattern of ribotypes causing infection and the association, if any, with severity. All faecal samples submitted to a large diag...
NanoFe(3)O(4) accelerates anoxic biodegradation of 3, 5, 6-trichloro-2-pyridinol
3, 5, 6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) is a widespread organic pollutant with persistent, mobile and high antimicrobial effects. Here, nanoFe(3)O(4) was firstly introduced into the anoxic biodegradation of TCP. It was found that nanoFe(3)O(4) significantly accelerated TCP biodegradation. The removal rate of TCP (100 mg L-1) increased from 83.03% to 98...

Silicone Elastomers with High-Permittivity Ionic Liquids Loading
The most obvious challenge facing current dielectric elastomers (DEs) is the high driving voltages necessary to activate them, and so, an effective way to overcome this shortcoming is to increase their dielectric permittivity. Herein, high-permittivity dielectric elastomer materials are prepared by synthesizing silicone elastomer loaded with ionic ...

The effect of Mo on load partitioning and microstrain evolution during compression of a series of polycrystalline Ni-Bas...
The room temperature deformation behaviour of a series of model polycrystalline Ni-based superalloys with varying Mo content has been studied in compression using in situ neutron diffraction. Initially, it was found that intergranular load partitioning was operative, followed by interphase partitioning at higher applied loads, with yield of the γ p...
Degradation of 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol by a microbial consortium in dryland soil with anaerobic incubation
Biodegradation of 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) in drylands is an important biological process of detoxification. Flooding in drylands can result in the formation of anaerobic habitats. However, little is known about the microbial metabolism of TCP in dryland soil under anaerobic conditions. Here, chlorpyrifos-contaminated dryland soil was incu...
