Accurate and rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing using a machine learning-assisted nanomotion technology platform

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major public health threat, reducing treatment options for infected patients. AMR is promoted by a lack of access to rapid antibiotic susceptibility tests (ASTs). Accelerated ASTs can identify effective antibiotics for t ...

Thioester-containing proteins regulate the Toll pathway and play a role in Drosophila defence against microbial pathogens and parasitoid wasps

Bruno Lemaitre, Samuel Rommelaere, Anna Dostalova

Background: Members of the thioester-containing protein (TEP) family contribute to host defence in both insects and mammals. However, their role in the immune response of Drosophila is elusive. In this study, we address the role of TEPs in Drosophila immun ...

Near-field characterization of Bloch surface waves based 2D optical components

Richa Dubey

Bloch surface waves (BSWs) are surface electromagnetic modes that propagate at the interface between a multilayer substrate and a homogeneous external medium. The optical field of the surface mode is confined near the surface of the multilayer. This vertic ...

Super-Resolution Imaging of a Dielectric Microsphere Is Governed by the Waist of Its Photonic Nanojet

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Hui Yang, Gergely Huszka

Dielectric microspheres with appropriate refractive index can image objects with super-resolution, that is, with a precision well beyond the classical diffraction limit. A microsphere is also known to generate upon illumination a photonic nanojet, which is ...

Sensing Gram-negative bacteria: a phylogenetic perspective

Bruno Lemaitre, Claudine Danielle Patricia Öngen

Gram-negative bacteria represent a major group of pathogens that infect all eukaryotes from plants to mammals. Gram-negative microbe-associated molecular patterns include lipopolysaccharides and peptidoglycans, major immunostimulatory determinants across p ...

A micropillar array for sample concentration via in-plane evaporation

Demetri Psaltis, Jae-Woo Choi, Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini Hashemi

We present a method to perform sample concentration within a lab-on-a-chip using a microfluidic structure which controls the liquid-gas interface through a micropillar array fabricated in polydimethylsiloxane between microfluidic channels. The microstructu ...

Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopy Study of Biomolecules, Elaboration of New SNOM Probes and Detection Methods

Mounir Driss Mensi

The combination of the topographic resolution of Scanning Probe Microscopy with the subwavelength information of light/matter interaction leads to a new instrument called Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM). This new instrument is an ideal tool t ...

Targeted Photoswitchable Probe for Nanoscopy of Biological Structures

Theo Lasser, Kai Johnsson, Iwan Märki, Claudio Dellagiacoma, Stefan Geissbühler, Noelia Laura Bocchio, Grazvydas Lukinavicius, Sambashiva Banala

We introduce a photoswitchable O6-benzylguanine derivative and demonstrate its use for super-resolution microscopy of SNAP-tagged proteins based on single fluorophore localization. Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy (STORM) reveals SNAP-tagged mi ...
