Objective Key BV-associated bacteria that may be important in incident BV (iBV) pathogenesis are Gardnerella species and Prevotella bivia. We quantified the amount of these bacterial species in clue cell biofilms in longitudinal vaginal specimens from iBV cases and controls using peptide nucleic acid fluorescence in situ hybridization (PNA-FISH). Study Design Women with optimal vaginal microbiota self-collected...
The possibility of tuning the magnetic properties of materials with voltage (converse magnetoelectricity) or generating electric voltage with magnetic fields (direct magnetoelectricity) has opened new avenues in a large variety of technological fields, ranging from information technologies to healthcare devices and including a great number of multifunctional integrated systems, such as mechanical antennas, magn...
