The ability to study antibiotic resistant pathogens by using methods such as antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is important, especially with the rapid emergence of more and more antibiotic resistant pathogens. AST is a method with uses droplets of solutions as individual, isolated environments, thus allowing for high-throughput experiments. The ability for small molecule antibiotics to…

Romanian scientists¹ have developed a quick and easy analytical method to determine if wines contain pesticide residues less than the European Union’s maximum residue limits. They focused on the detection of six pesticide residues in red, rosé, and white wines. The pesticides chosen were Acetamiprid, Chlorantraniliprole, and Iprovalicarb, Myclobutanil, Tebuconazole, and Oxiathiapiprolin. The researchers used…

There are a very limited number of medical interventions to prevent placental-mediated adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as preterm birth (PTB) and no interventions available for pre-eclampsia (PE). This is because pharmaceuticals are unable to cross feto-maternal interface (FMi) barriers and there is lack of proper models to test drug interactions, teratogenicity, and cytotoxicity at those…
