Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) induces a wide range of
disease severity, ranging from asymptomatic infection to a life-threating illness, particularly in …

The aim of this paper was to investigate the association of three well-recognised dietary
patterns with cognitive change over a 3-year period. Five hundred and twenty-seven healthy …

Although biofilm formation is widely documented on Earth, it has not been demonstrated in
the absence of gravity. To explore this possibility, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, suspended in …

Two soil microbial processes, substrate‐induced nitrification (SIN) and substrate‐induced
respiration (SIR), were measured in the topsoils of 12 Australian field trials that were amended …

In most bacteria, a global level of regulation exists involving intercellular communication via
the production and response to cell density-dependent signal molecules. This cell density-…

In this paper, we explore the use of choice modelling for obtaining implicit prices for attributes
associated with changes in the reliability of household water services. While not often …

This chapter reviews many commonly used organisms, experimental approaches, and
techniques used for the growth and study of biofilms. Here, the authors focus on commonly used …

The size of the soil microbial biomass carbon (SMBC) has been proposed as a sensitive
indicator for measuring the adverse effects of contaminants on the soil microbial community. In …

Bacteria growing as surface-adherent biofilms are better able to withstand chemical and
physical stresses than their unattached, planktonic counterparts. Using transcriptional profiling …

The systematically difficult task of diagnosing Lyme disease can be simplified by sensitive
and specific laboratory tests. The currently recommended two-tier test for serology is highly …
