Metals have been used as antimicrobial agents since antiquity, but throughout most of history
their modes of action have remained unclear. Recent studies indicate that different metals …

Geochemical cycling and industrial pollution have made toxic metal ions a pervasive
environmental pressure throughout the world. Biofilm formation is a strategy that microorganisms …

Neuronal computation is energetically expensive. Consequently, the brain's limited energy
supply imposes constraints on its information processing capability. Most brain energy is …

This paper describes the status of the 2012 edition of the HITRAN molecular spectroscopic
compilation. The new edition replaces the previous HITRAN edition of 2008 and its updates …

This paper describes the contents of the 2016 edition of the HITRAN molecular spectroscopic
compilation. The new edition replaces the previous HITRAN edition of 2012 and its …

The HITRAN database is a compilation of molecular spectroscopic parameters. It was
established in the early 1970s and is used by various computer codes to predict and simulate the …

Allelic exchange is an efficient method of bacterial genome engineering. This protocol
describes the use of this technique to make gene knockouts and knock-ins, as well as single-…

Biofilm cells are less susceptible to antimicrobials than their planktonic counterparts. While
this phenomenon is multifactorial, the ability of the matrix to reduce antibiotic penetration into …

The energetics of CNS white matter are poorly understood. We derive a signaling energy
budget for the white matter (based on data from the rodent optic nerve and corpus callosum) …

The GEISA database (Gestion et Etude des Informations Spectroscopiques Atmosphériques:
Management and Study of Atmospheric Spectroscopic Information) has been developed …
