Peroxyacids (POAs) are a promising alternative to chlorine for reducing the formation of disinfection byproducts. However, their capacity for microbial inactivation and mechanisms of action require further investigation. We evaluated the efficacy of three POAs (performic acid (PFA), peracetic acid (PAA), and perpropionic acid (PPA)) and chlor(am)in...

Image super-resolution techniques exploiting the stochastic fluctuations of image intensities have become a powerful tool in fluorescence microscopy. Compared to other approaches, these techniques can be applied under standard acquisition settings and do not require special microscopes nor fluorophores. Most of these approaches can be mathematicall...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa thrives in the airways of individuals with cystic fibrosis, in part by forming robust biofilms that are resistant to immune clearance or antibiotic treatment. In the cystic fibrosis lung, the thickened mucus layers create an oxygen gradient, often culminating with the formation of anoxic pockets. In this environment, P. aerug...

Introduction: The current understanding of the biological impacts of a static magnetic field (SMF) is restricted to the direct interactions of the magnetic field with biological membranes. The electrokinetic (zeta) potential is an electrochemical property of erythrocyte surfaces which was negatively charged in physiological media after SMF exposure...

Recent advances in single-molecule imaging of mRNAs in fixed and living cells have enabled the lives of mRNAs to be studied with unprecedented spatial and temporal detail. These approaches have moved beyond simply being able to observe specific events and have begun to allow an understanding of how regulation is coupled between steps in the mRNA li...

Enzymes involved in the central metabolism of bacteria are usually considered to be distributed within the entire cytoplasm. Here, we provide an example for a spatially defined localization of a unique enzyme complex of actinobacteria, the hybrid pyruvate dehydrogenase/2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (PDH-ODH) complex composed of four different subuni...

Understanding the mechanical behavior of biological membranes is of paramount importance in cell biophysics and in developing new biomaterials for medicine. In this study, we delve into the mechanical impact of β-escin, commonly referred to as escin, a naturally occurring biosurfactant derived from the seeds of the horse chestnut tree. To examine t...

The simultaneous observation of 3D chromatin arrangement and transcription in single cells is critical to understand how DNA is organized inside cells and how this organization influences or affects other processes, such as transcriptional regulation. We have recently introduced an innovative technology known as HiM , which enables the sequential t...

Antibodies have gained considerable importance in laboratory and clinical settings. Currently, antibodies are extensively employed for the diagnosis and treatment of several human diseases. Herein, using targeted and cell immunisation approaches, we developed and characterised an antibody clone, DWH24. We found that DWH24 is an IgM κ type antibody ...

This presentation will give an overview of the local description of polarization for nonparaxial light, for which all three Cartesian components of the electric field are significant. The polarization of light at each point is characterized by a three-component complex vector in the case of full polarization and by a 3×3 polarization matrix for par...
