21. Fluorimetric Bioprobe Based on DNA-dye Intercalation - Application in Enviromental and Clinical Monitoring
Abstract : Nucleic acids have many unique structural features that offer reliable means of recognizing and monitoring many compounds of medical or environmental importance. In recent years, there has been an enormous increase in the use of nucleic acids as a tool to determine the chemical compounds of environmental and clinical interest and the major research activities in these areas have been directed towards the design of sequence-selective biosensors based on hybridization.

22. Pharmacometric Models for Antibacterial Agents to Improve Dosing Strategies
Abstract : Antibiotics are among the most commonly prescribed drugs. Although the majority of these drugs were developed several decades ago, optimal dosage (dose, dosing interval and treatment duration) have still not been well defined. READ MORE

23. Effects of pharmaceuticals on natural microbial communities: Tolerance development, mixture toxicity and synergistic interactions
Abstract : Due to our extensive use of pharmaceuticals, low concentrations (picomol-nanomol/L) end up in the aquatic environment. Antibiotics comprise a group of pharmaceuticals specifically designed to disrupt microbial biochemical processes, and might therefore in particular have detrimental effects on microbial communities in the environment.

25. Tracking single molecules in uncharted territory : A single-molecule method to study kinetics in live bacteria
Abstract : The synthesis of proteins, also known as translation, is a fundamental process in every living organism. The steps in the translation of genetic information to functional proteins have been meticulously studied, mostly using in vitro techniques, yielding a detailed model of their mechanisms. READ MORE
