A device and a method for clinically providing a preparation of autologous phages, namely, those that can verifiably be traced back to originating from a very specific person and preferably are also only intended for use in this one specific person includes a phage culturing device which is a fluid line system that is sealed off with respect to the outside environment The phages in the fluid line system obtained after at least one-time culturing are separated from bacteria by way of filtration, and preferably by way of tangential flow filtration. The phages separated by way of filtration are transferred into a collection vessel that is connected to the fluid line system and are preferably removed from the fluid line system, using the collection vessel, as a usable, preferably autologous preparation.

A method for preparing a cell membrane-coated nano topological array and a use thereof are disclosed. The method includes: stimulating macrophages to form stimulated macrophages, and extracting the membrane of the stimulated macrophages; at the same time, processing a substrate to form a substrate with nanowires, and treating the substrate with nanowires to form a positively charged nanowire substrate; combining the membrane of the stimulated macrophages with the positively charged nanowire substrate to obtain a macrophage membrane-modified nano topological array. The present invention is simple in preparation and operation, and can be applied to capture bacteria.

The present invention is concerned with a photosynthetic scaffold that delivers oxygen and its uses for tissue engineering and the treatment of ischemia.

A method, a medium and a kit for the enrichment and detection of Listeria species, especially Listeria monocytogenes. The medium is an enrichment medium of C12 to C16 fatty acids and/or derivatives thereof.

The present invention is concerned with a photosynthetic scaffold that delivers oxygen and its uses for tissue engineering and the treatment of ischemia.

Disclosed herein is a Chlamydia-activated B cell (CAB) platform. Also disclosed is a method of enhancing a population of B cells, comprising exposing said B cells to Chlamydia spp. under conditions suitable to enhance the population of B cells, such that expansion and differentiation of said B cells takes place, and said B cells are exposed or crosslinked to an antigen. Also disclosed are methods of producing said CABs, and treating a subject in need thereof with said CABs.

Provided herein are methods and compositions related to culturing hemoglobin-dependent bacteria.

Several methods are described for generating mycelial scaffolds for use several technologies. In one embodiment, a mycelial scaffold is generated using a perfusion bioreactor system for cell-based meat technologies. In another embodiment, a mycelial scaffold is prepared for biomedical applications. The mycelial scaffolds may be generated from a liquid medium or from a solid substrate.
