• Variability and geographical origin of five years airborne fungal spore concentrations measured at Saclay, France from 2014 to 2018 

  Sarda-Estève, Roland; Baisnée, Dominique; Guinot, Benjamin; Sodeau, John; O’Connor, David; Belmonte, Jordina; Besancenot, Jean-Pierre; Petit, Jean-Eudes; Thibaudon, Michel; Oliver, Gilles; Sindt, Charlotte; Gros, Valérie (MDPI AG, 2019-07-13)

  Airborne fungal spores (AFS) represent the major fraction of primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs), and they are studied worldwide largely due to their important role within the Earth system. They have an impact on ...
• Quantum confinement-induced semimetal-to-semiconductor evolution in large-area ultra-thin PtSe2 films grown at 400 °C 

  Ansari, Lida; Monaghan, Scott; McEvoy, Niall; Coileáin, Cormac Ó.; Cullen, Conor P.; Lin, Jun; Siris, Rita; Stimpel-Lindner, Tanja; Burke, Kevin F.; Mirabelli, Gioele; Duffy, Ray; Caruso, Enrico; Nagle, Roger E.; Duesberg, Georg S.; Hurley, Paul K.; Gity, Farzan (Nature Publishing Group, 2019-09-09)

  In this work, we present a comprehensive theoretical and experimental study of quantum confinement in layered platinum diselenide (PtSe2) films as a function of film thickness. Our electrical measurements, in combination ...
• Overview of optical and electrochemical alkaline phosphatase (ALP) biosensors: recent approaches in cells culture techniques 

  Balbaied, Thanih; Moore, Eric (MDPI, 2019-08-23)

  Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), which catalyzes the dephosphorylation process of proteins, nucleic acids, and small molecules, can be found in a variety of tissues (intestine, liver, bone, kidney, and placenta) of almost all ...
• Novel 11-substituted ellipticines as potent anticancer agents with divergent activity against cancer cells 

  Miller, Charlotte M.; O’Sullivan, Elaine C.; McCarthy, Florence O. (MDPI AG, 2019-06-14)

  Ellipticines have well documented anticancer activity, in particular with substitution at the 1-, 2-, 6- and 9-positions. However, due to limitations in synthesis and coherent screening methodology the full SAR profile of ...
• Modulation of antibiotic sensitivity and biofilm formation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by interspecies signal analogues 

  An, Shi-qi; Murtagh, Julie; Twomey, Kate B.; Gupta, Manoj K.; O’Sullivan, Timothy P.; Ingram, Rebecca; Valvano, Miguel A.; Tang, Ji-liang (Springer Nature Limited, 2019-05-27)

  Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a significant opportunistic pathogen, can participate in inter-species communication through signaling by cis-2-unsaturated fatty acids of the diffusible signal factor (DSF) family. Sensing these ...
