    Abstract To sequester prokaryotic cells in a biofilm-like niche, the creation of a pertinent and reliable microenvironment that reflects the heterogeneous nature of biological systems is vital for sustenance. Design of a microenvironment that is conducive for growth and survival of organisms, should account for factors such as mass transport, porosity, stability, elasticity, size, functionality, and biochemical characteristics of the organisms in the confined architecture. In this work we present an artificial long-term confinement model fabricated by natural alginate hydrogels that are structurally stable and can host organisms for over 10 days in physiologically relevant conditions. A unique feature of the confinement platform is the development of stratified habitats wherein bacterial cells can be entrapped in the core as well as in the shell layers, wherein the thickness and the number of shell layers are tunable at fabrication. We show that the hydrogel microenvironment in the beads can host complex subpopulations of organisms similar to that in a biofilm. Dynamic interaction of bacterial colonies encapsulated in different beads or within the core and stratified layers of single beads was demonstrated to show intra- species communication. Inter- species communication between probiotic bacteria and human colorectal carcinoma cells was also demonstrated to highlight a possible bidirectional communication between the organisms in the beads and the environment. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Bacteria confinement in a natural soft hydrogel structure has always been a challenge due to the collapse of hydrogel architectures. Alternative methods have been attempted to encapsulate microorganisms by employing various processes to avoid/minimize rupturing of hydrogel structures. However, most of the past approaches have been unfavorable in balancing cell proliferation and functionality upon confinement. Our study addresses the fundamental gap in knowledge necessary to create favorable and complex 3D biofilm mimics utilizing natural hydrogel for microbial colonization for long-term studies. Our approach represents a cornerstone in the development of 3D functional architectures not only to advance studies in microbial communication, host-microbe interaction but also to address basic and fundamental questions in biology.

    Abstract The presence of β-lactamase positive microorganisms imparts a pharmacological effect on a variety of organisms that can impact drug efficacy by influencing the function or composition of bacteria. Although studies to assess dynamic intra- and interspecies communication with bacterial communities exist, the efficacy of drug treatment and quantitative assessment of multiorganism response is not well understood due to the lack of technological advances that can be used to study coculture interactions in a dynamic format. In this study, we investigate how β-lactamase positive microorganisms can neutralize the effect of β-lactam antibiotics in a dynamic format at the inter- and intraspecies level using microbial bead technology. Three interactive models for the biological compartmentalization of organisms were demonstrated to evaluate the effect of β-lactam antibiotics on coculture systems. Our model at the intraspecies level attempts to mimic the biofilm matrix more closely as a community-level feature of microorganisms, which acknowledges the impact of nondrug-resistant species in shaping the dynamic response. In particular, the results of intraspecies studies are highly supportive of the biofilm mode of bacterial growth, which can provide structural support and protect the bacteria from an assault on host or environmental factors. Our findings also indicate that β-lactamase positive bacteria can neutralize the cytotoxic effect of β-lactam antibiotics at the interspecies level when cocultured with cancer cells. Results were validated using β-lactamase positive bacteria isolated from environmental niches, which can trigger phenotypical alteration of β-lactams when cocultured with other organisms. Our compartmentalization strategy acts as an independent ecosystem and provides a new avenue for multiscale studies to assess intra- and interspecies interactions.

    Abstract In this work, a lateral flow (LF)-based detection strategy termed magnetic control-enhanced LFA (MCLF) was proposed to detect nucleic acid sequences at attomolar sensitivity. In the proposed MCLF method, magnetic controllers which are magnetic nanoparticles modified with antibodies against the labels on capture sequences were used to interact with the unreacted labeled capture sequence (CS-label) to improve the detection limit. By regulating the movement of magnetic probes (magnetic controllers) with a simple magnet under the lateral flow strip, the movement of magnetic probes bounded with unreacted CS-label in the sample flow could be reduced. Therefore, the target sequence-containing sandwich structures will arrive at the test zone prior, to interact with the recognition ligands, whereby the capture efficiency of the sandwich structures could be increased because the unreacted capture sequences at the test zone will be reduced. With the colorimetric signal from gold nanoparticle-based probes, the proposed MCLF technique could recognize as low as 100 aM of DNA target sequences by naked eyes, and the responding range of MCLF is from 100 aM to 10 pM.

    Abstract Emerging portable near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic approaches coupled with data analysis and chemometric techniques provide opportunities for the rapid characterization of spray-dried products and process optimization. This study aimed to enhance the understanding of applying NIR spectroscopy in spray-dried samples by comparing two sample preparation strategies and two spectrometers. Two sets of whey protein–maltodextrin matrixes, one with a protein content gradient and one with a consistent protein content, were spray-dried, and the effect of the two preparation strategies on NIR calibration model development was studied. Secondly, a portable NIR spectrometer (PEAK) was compared with a benchtop NIR spectrometer (CARY) for the moisture analysis of prepared samples. When validating models with the samples with focused protein contents, the best PLS protein models established from the two sample sets had similar performances. When comparing two spectrometers, although CARY outperformed PEAK, PEAK still demonstrated reliable performance for moisture analysis, indicating that it is capable as an inline sensor.
