Morphology control can enable multifunction micro devices, but the fabrication of 3D structures is challenging. This paper presents a planar fabrication compatible pneumatic actuator based on ...

One of the major challenges in tuberculosis (TB) management is to identify the different stages of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection. Although a quarter of the global population is estimated ...

The drugs, sutezolid and delpazolid, have demonstrated strong antimicrobial activity and a notably better safety profile ...

By targeting a previously unexploited metabolic pathway essential for bacterial survival, the drug candidate may offer the potential to develop safer, shorter and more effective treatment regimens ...

This assay combines a pair of high affinity monoclonal antibodies directed towards largely Mycobacterium tuberculosis -specific lipoarabinomannan epitopes 7–9 and a silver-amplification step 10 that ...

New drugs that target 'zombie' tuberculosis (TB) cells are now a step closer, thanks to a new study led by the University of ...

The Tulane team has developed a handful of other assays for TB detection, including a mass spec test for paucibacillary TB ...

New drugs that target "zombie" tuberculosis (TB) cells are now a step closer, thanks to a new study led by the University of ...

The high-temperature requirement A (HtrA) family of serine proteases has been shown to play an important role in the environmental and cellular stress damage control system in Escherichia coli.

This work describes the most extensive discovery and functional characterization of small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis to date. We comprehensively define the sRNAs expressed ...

People deprived of liberty are among the populations experiencing the highest rates of tuberculosis. Prisons typically create ideal conditions for Mycobacterium tuberculosis transmission, including ...

Common risk factors included low socioeconomic status, diabetes mellitus, pulmonary tuberculosis exposure, and HIV co-infection. Conclusions: This review highlights a lack of comprehensive on the ...
