Draft genome sequencing of a multidrug-resistant strain MBBL2 isolated from mastitic cow milk.

Milk from cows with mastitis is a primary source of bacteria harboring antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), including . We present the genome sequence of strain MBBL2 isolated from mastitic cow milk, which contains numerous ARGs and virulence-associated genes potentially pathogenic to humans.

Draft genome sequencing of multidrug-resistant strains isolated from mastitic cow milk.

is an important antibiotic-resistant pathogen in mastitis, with broader public health implications. We report the genomes of two strains, MBBL4 and MBBL5, isolated from mastitic cow milk. The draft genomes, covering 4.

Dynamic omniphobic surfaces enable the stable dropwise condensation of completely wetting refrigerants.

Condensation is a vital process integral to numerous industrial applications. Enhancing condensation efficiency through dropwise condensation on hydrophobic surfaces is well-documented. However, no surfaces have been able to repel liquids with extremely low surface tension, such as fluorinated solvents, during condensation, as they nucleate and completely wet even the most hydrophobic interfaces.

Ultranarrow Semiconductor WS Nanoribbon Field-Effect Transistors.

Semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted significant attention for their potential to develop high-performance, energy-efficient, and nanoscale electronic devices. Despite notable advancements in scaling down the gate and channel length of TMD field-effect transistors (FETs), the fabrication of sub-30 nm narrow channels and devices with atomic-scale edge control still poses challenges. Here, we demonstrate a crystallography-controlled nanostructuring technique to fabricate ultranarrow tungsten disulfide (WS) nanoribbons as small as sub-10 nm in width.

Computational Assessment of - Curves and Tunability of 2D Semiconductor van der Waals Heterostructures.

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have received significant interest for use in tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs) due to their ultrathin layers and tunable band gap features. In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the electronic properties of six TMD heterostructures, namely, MoSe/HfS, MoTe/ZrS, MoTe/HfS, WSe/HfS, WTe/ZrS, and WTe/HfS, focusing on variations in band alignments. We demonstrate that WTe/ZrS and WTe/HfS have the smallest band gaps (close to 0 or broken) from the considered set.
