SNSF_203577_Bactericidal Nanoblades
No full textThe main objective of our project is to validate the feasibility of the concept of bactericidal nanoblades that enable the remote elimination of biofilms using a bimodal chemo-mechanical approach. Various protocols will be tested to evaluate the performance of our concept, which combines mechanical destruction and bactericidal action in synergy. Mechanical destruction will be achieved by converting magnetic energy into the rotational movement of remotely controlled anisotropic magnetic particles with different form factors to be evaluated, such as nano-plates, nano-sticks, nano-chains, and micro-magnetic sticks. The bactericidal component will be provided by the release of silver ions by convection, generating a broad-spectrum antimicrobial environment. This strategy will be evaluated on different combinations of bacterial biofilms and surfaces, including bacteria that are very important for the healthcare system and the food industry

Trade-offs in insect eye nanocoatings: Implications for vision, ecology, and climate sensitivity.
No full textFunctional traits shape ecological niches, yet the interplay between nanoscale structural modifications, sexual dimorphism, and habitat range remains poorly understood. In fireflies, cuticular nanostructures that enhance bioluminescent signaling efficiency also impose ecological constraints. Anti-reflective nanocoatings improve cuticle transparency and optical performance but typically increase surface adhesion, reducing fitness. In Luciola lusitanica, this trade-off is mitigated by temperature-sensitive nanocoatings that form only within a narrow thermal range, limiting habitat expansion. This study presents the first thermodynamic analysis of environmentally constrained nanocoating formation, demonstrating how small temperature fluctuations can destabilize protein-lipid self-assembly. These findings link nanoscale biophysics to ecological resilience, providing a framework to understand how the environmental sensitivity of structural self-organization shapes adaptation, species distribution, and evolutionary potential
Analysis of microbiota variations in industry workers working different shifts and impact of a nutritional intervention
No full textThis dataset is linked to the study "Analysis of microbiota variations in industry workers working different shifts and
impact of a nutritional intervention", principal investigator : Sophie Bucher Della Torre, Filière Nutrition et diététique, Haute école de santé Genève (HES-SO), Rue des Caroubiers 25, 1227 Carouge. [email protected].

Brief presentation of the study :
In this project, we analyzed the variations of gut microbiota (GM) composition of shift workers over three different types of weekly shift (AM = morning; PM = afternoon; N = night). The three first weeks of the study were observational, while in the three following weeks, participants ate a 30g serving of walnuts in addition to their usual food intake. Microbiota composition was compared between shifts and between the observation and intervention phases.
The data contains biological, nutritional and comportemental measurements.
