Abstract Background Spores of psychrotrophic Bacillus cereus may survive the mild heat
treatments given to minimally processed chilled foods. Subsequent germination and cell …

Although carboxyl and phosphoryl functional groups within the bacterial cell envelope and
on bacterial extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) molecules are the most abundant …

Biochar has been touted as a promising sorbent for the removal of inorganic contaminants,
such as uranium (U), from water. However, the molecular-scale mechanisms of aqueous U …

Bacteria and their secreted extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are widely distributed
in ecosystems and have high capacity for heavy metal immobilization. The knowledge about …

Cellulose (Cell) was chemically modified by grafting thiourea (Thio-Cell) and glutaraldehyde
cross-linked chitosan (GLA-Chit) was functionalized by poly (aminocarboxymethylation) …

In this study we examined whether a Gram-positive and a Gram-negative bacterial species
have the capability to remove perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonic …

The conversion of inorganic mercury (Hg (II)) to methylmercury (MeHg) is central to the
understanding of Hg toxicity in the environment. Hg methylation occurs in the cytosol of …

The evolution of multidrug resistance in bacteria instigates the decline in effectiveness of
antibiotics. Nanoparticle-enzyme bioconjugates are a recent interest in countering biofilm …

Antibiotic resistance is a significant threat, leaving us vulnerable to bacterial infections.
Novel strategies are needed to combat bacterial resistance beyond discovering new …

Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) composed of nucleic acid mimics (NAMs) monomers are
considered as potential novel therapeutic drugs against bacterial infections. However …
