General description

Polystyrene microparticles are anionic-stabilizedcolloidal particles. These microparticles are synthesized by the polymerizationof styrene under conditions that produce coalescent bead formation. Polystyrenelatex beads have a wide range of applications including phagocytosis experiments,antibody-mediated agglutination diagnostics, electron microscopy, and cellcounter calibration.

Application

Polystyrene latex beads have been used:
  • inthe flow cytometric assay of endothelial microparticles (EMPs)
  • in thedetection of capsular polysaccharide (CPS) antibody/antigen latex agglutinationtest
  • to evaluate the phagocytic activity in hemocytes of shrimps

The use of a thick sorbent coating in headspace sorptive extraction (HSSE) increases the amount of analytes extracted at equilibrium as well as the time needed to reach it. In this work we propose HSSE sampling under vacuum conditions to

It is becoming increasingly apparent that Staphylococcus aureus are able to survive engulfment by macrophages, and that the intracellular environment of these host cells, which is essential to innate host defenses against invading microorganisms, may in fact provide a refuge

Recent research shows that visible-light responsive photocatalysts have potential usage in antimicrobial applications. However, the dynamic changes in the damage to photocatalyzed bacteria remain unclear. Facilitated by atomic force microscopy, this study analyzes the visible-light driven photocatalyst-mediated damage of Escherichia
