Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed a new method using rhodium as a catalyst to create silicon-bridged π-conjugated polymers from alkynylsilylacetylenes, which are easier to make and not currently accessible through existing methods.
  • The polymerization can incorporate various types of alkynes (like diynes, triynes, and tetraynes) to produce these unique polymers.
  • The solubility of these polymers can be fine-tuned by adding specific functional groups to the silicon atoms, and further modifications can be made to create varied polyacetylenes by removing silicon groups.

Evaluation of the efficacy of vaccine candidates that prevent enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EPEC/EHEC) infection in mouse models is difficult due to their limited pathogenicity in mice. Citrobacter rodentium, a murine pathogenic bacterium that shares its infection strategy and virulence genes with EPEC/EHEC, has been used as a model pathogen to develop novel vaccine strategies or platforms for these bacteria. However, there are few reports on the comparative effectiveness of novel vaccine platforms as no C.

Application of food-grade Lactococcus lactis (L. lactis) as a safe delivery tool for DNA vaccines and therapeutic proteins has been well investigated. Although some studies showed that eukaryotic expression plasmids were transferred from L.
