    Microbial interactions unfold within environments structured by physical transport and chemical gradients, yet most mechanistic studies rely on well-mixed systems that obscure how metabolism and ecology influence one another. To examine how spatial heterogeneity reshapes microbial interactions in the gut, we investigated how oxygen gradients affect a canonical polysaccharide-mediated...

    The ecological functioning of subsurface environments—including soils, lake and marine sediments, and aquifers—is strongly controlled by redox processes mediated by diverse microbial communities inhabiting porous media. The composition and spatial organization of these communities arise from the coupled effects of pore-scale geometry, fluid flow, microbial interactions, and microscale...

    Bacteria are well-recognised as having a beneficial effect on the structure of soil in that they favour soil aggregation and increase soil pore connectivity. Soil opacity renders its dynamic imaging at the microscale difficult, so our knowledge on bacterial activity in soil largely results from end-point measurements. Microfluidic chambers enable the dynamic observation of bacteria in model...

    Understanding fouling formation and preventing its consequences are crucial in the dairy industry to improve the efficiency of unit operations and the quality of the products. To date, most of the literature associated dairy fouling development with the heat-induced denaturation of whey proteins, which leads to their aggregation and progressive adsorption onto surfaces. Nevertheless, this...

    Introduction
    Liquid biopsy and the use of selected biomarkers from biological fluids, greatly enhance an increasingly patient-centered approach, avoiding invasive tests and tissue biopsies. Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) act as a snapshot of the cells from which they originate and as a repository of crucial information, facilitating the direct extracellular transfer of proteins, lipids, and...

    Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanometre-sized double-layered phospholipid vesicles that circulate in body fluids, carrying genetic information from their parent cells, making them highly suitable for liquid biopsy[1]. Despite their value, their current use in clinical practice is still limited. Among the limiting factors, one of the most critical is their isolation. Conventional approaches...

    Background: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are spherical, bilayer-enclosed particles that are released in a constitutive manner by nearly all cell types and which play a key role in the intercellular communication and the regulation of both physiological and pathological processes. As non-replicating agents with nanometric sizes and loading capacities, interesting biochemical properties and...
