Article Synopsis
- Helicobacter pylori infects around 80% of people in Asia and is a leading cause of peptic ulcers, often presenting asymptomatically, with certain virulence factors increasing the risk of gastric cancer.
- This study investigates how eight algal peptides can interact with H. pylori's virulence factors (CagA, VacA, and HtrA) to inhibit their growth using in silico analysis.
- Results indicate that a peptide from the green alga Tetradesmus sp. effectively targets all three virulence factors, demonstrating strong binding energy, which could pave the way for new treatments against H. pylori infections and associated complications.
This work demonstrates the fabrication of tellurium-nanowires (Te-NWs)/paper based device encapsulated using laser assisted mircopyramid patterned polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films. Although there are multiple reports published on 1D Te, most of them are limited to establishing its properties and studying its behavior as a sensor and research on the utilization of Te-NWs for physical sensors remain unexplored. Further, reports on p-type photodetectors also remain scarce.

A MOF based flexible sensor is reported for the first time for breath sensing applications. The properties of a highly porous HKUST-1 MOF and a conducting MoS2 material have been combined to fabricate an electronic sensor on a flexible paper support for studying sleep apnea problems.
