Article Synopsis
- The study aims to develop a method for creating antimicrobial materials by linking peptides to cellulose using chemical reactions.
- Researchers utilized thioester peptides and cysteine-modified cellulose to allow flexible attachment points for the peptides on the cellulose.
- Experiments showed that cellulose combined with specific peptides significantly reduced viable cell counts, indicating that these antimicrobial peptides remain effective when covalently bonded to cellulose.
Seven new troglobitic leiodid beetle taxa (six new species and one new subspecies) from several caves and pits in the Balkan Peninsula (Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia) are described and diagnosed. Three new species belong to the genus Adelopidius Apfelbeck, 1907, two-to the genus Pholeuonopsis Apfelbeck, 1901, one-to the genus Leonhardia Reitter, 1901, while a new subspecies belongs to the genus Apholeuonus Reitter, 1889. All important morphological characteristics of the new taxa have been mentioned and imaged, including the aspects of the male and female genitalia.
