It is an important task to construct intelligent packaging for meat freshness monitoring with good color stability and indication function. Herein, cobalt-based metal-organic framework nanomaterials (Co-MOF, ZIF-67) with antimicrobial and ammonia-sensitive properties were successfully synthesized and added into gelatin/agar (GA) matrix to develop highly stable intelligent films (GA/ZIF67). The incorporation of ZIF-67 nanoparticles enhanced the hydrophobicity (water contact angle >90°) and UV-blocking properties (close to 0.

A Novel Isotropic Optical Fiber: Antimicrobial Effect of Blue Light on Drug Resistant Organisms.

J Orthop Res

January 2025

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Division of Arthroplasty and Joint Reconstruction, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Drug-resistant organisms (DROs) necessitate the development of new therapies. Antimicrobial blue light (ABL) is a promising option, utilizing photoexcitation of endogenous bacterial components to generate reactive oxygen species, leading to bacterial death. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of a novel isotropic optical fiber under in-vitro conditions on multidrug-resistant gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDR-Pa) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

The synergistic effect of natural guar gum (GG), konjac gum (KGM) and sodium 2-oxopropanoic acid sodium (2-OAS) to designed a novel physical cross-linked three-dimensional network structure GG@2-OAS@KGM as a carrier of active microorganisms for mold and yeast sensitive detection. At the ratio of 6:2:2 (w/w/w), GG@2-OAS@KGM possessed a uniform porous structure. After treatment for 120 h, the hydrogel exhibits higher water holding capacity (WHC, 71.

Background: Globally, diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) has been implicated in the spread of waterborne diseases and abattoir wastewater has played a role in its dissemination into watersheds. This study isolated and characterised DEC from the abattoir wastewater-impacted Iyi-Etu River and other water sources at the Amansea livestock market settlement.

Methods: A total of 96 water samples comprising river water (upstream, downstream 1, downstream 2), borehole, well, sachet and abattoir wastewater samples were tested for DEC.
