Herringbone micromixers for particle filtration (article)
(AIP Publishing, 23 January 2023)Herringbone micromixers are a powerful tool for introducing advection into microfluidic systems. While these mixers are typically used for mixing fluids faster than the rate of diffusion, there has been recent interest in ... -
Single Cell Killing Kinetics Differentiate Phenotypic Bacterial Responses to Different Antibacterial Classes
(American Society for Microbiology, 18 January 2023)With the spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria, there has been an increasing focus on molecular classes that have not yet yielded an antibiotic. A key capability for assessing and prescribing new antibacterial treatments ... -
Systematic comparison of unilamellar vesicles reveals that archaeal core lipid membranes are more permeable than bacterial membranes
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 1 April 2023)One of the deepest branches in the tree of life separates the Archaea from the Bacteria. These prokaryotic groups have distinct cellular systems including fundamentally different phospholipid membrane bilayers. This dichotomy ... -
Tilapia aquaculture, emerging diseases, and the roles of the skin microbiomes in health and disease
(Springer, 25 April 2023)Aquaculture is playing an increasingly important role in global food security, especially for low-income and food-deficit countries. The majority of aquaculture production occurs in freshwater earthen ponds and tilapia has ... -
The Application of Imaging Flow Cytometry for Characterisation and Quantification of Bacterial Phenotypes
(Frontiers Media, 21 July 2021)Bacteria modify their morphology in response to various factors including growth stage, nutrient availability, predation, motility and long-term survival strategies. Morphological changes may also be associated with specific ...
