Polysulfone/halloysite composite membranes with low fouling properties and enhanced compaction resistance by Nagla Kamal (17092960)

“…SEM images, pore size, and porosity estimations indicated that the incorporation of low to medium Hal loadings resulted in PSF/Hal membranes with smaller surface pore size, lower porosity, and thicker top skin layer due to the strong interfacial interactions between Hal and PSF matrix. …”

Rapid separation of very low concentrations of bacteria from blood by Buchanan, Clara M.

“…A rapid and accurate diagnosis of the species and antibiotic resistance of bacteria in septic blood is vital to increase survival rates of patients with bloodstream infections, particularly those with carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections. …”

Differences in protein expression, at the basal state and at 2 h of insulin infusion, in muscle biopsies from healthy Arab men with high or low insulin sensitivity measured by hype... by Ilham Bettahi (363910)

“…Additionally, we show differences in protein levels from skeletal muscle in low and high insulin sensitivity groups. Therefore, these differences may represent early events for the development of insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, and type 2 diabetes.…”

Low-level amikacin resistance induced by AAC(6′)-Ib and AAC(6′)-Ib-cr in extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales isolated from urine in children by Hassan Al, Mana

“…Over the past few years, however, amikacin has been increasingly used to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children caused by Enterobacterales producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), given the low resistance rates to this agent among ESBL-producing uropathogens worldwide. …”

Genetic Deletion of DNAJB3 Using CRISPR-Cas9, Produced Discordant Phenotypes by Shadi Nejat (19457212)

“…<p dir="ltr">Several pathways and/or genes have been shown to be dysregulated in obesity-induced insulin resistance (IR) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). We previously showed, for the first time, impaired expression of DNAJB3 mRNA and protein in subjects with obesity, which was concomitant with increased metabolic stress. …”

Rapid generation of purified human RPE from pluripotent stem cells using 2D cultures and lipoprotein uptake-based sorting by Fabio Michelet (8396283)

“…RPE differentiation was verified by electron microscopy, polarized VEGF expression, establishment of high transepithelial electrical resistance and photoreceptor phagocytosis assay. After 4 weeks on permeable membranes, RPE cell cultures were incubated with Dil-AcLDL (DiI-conjugated acetylated low-density lipoproteins) and subjected to fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) for purification and subculture.…”
