Rapid identification of pathogen and its resistance to antimicrobial drugs, and subsequent
appropriate antimicrobial treatment are essential for correct patient outcomes. Conventional …

Cellular metabolic heat (ΔP M) is produced from intracellular reactions, carrying information
about particular processes thus indicating the status of organisms. ΔP M originating from a …

Rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing is in high demand in health care fields as antimicrobial-
resistant bacterial strains emerge and spread. Here, we describe an optical screening …

Isothermal microcalorimetry measures the heat released or consumed by physical or
chemical processes. Metabolic activity releases heat that can be measured. However the …

The model of T4 phage, Lambda phage, and E. coli is often used in research on virus-host
interactions. This paper reports for the first time the thermodynamic driving force of …

Increased antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria dwelling in biofilm structures has
motivated the development of various monitoring tools specifically designed for biofilm …

Calorimetry is the science of measuring heat. For more than 200 years now, calorimetry has
advanced and various types of calorimeters have been developed for diverse applications …

Bioheat transfer-based innovations in health care include applications such as focal
treatments for cancer and cardiovascular disease and the preservation of tissues and …

The available pathogenic bacteria detection and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST)
are still time-consuming and tedious because of the lengthy culture procedures. Various …
