Transcription termination and antitermination are critical for the fitness and function of the integrative and conjugative element Tn916. by Erika S Wirachman, Alan D Grossman

“…Tn916, the founding member of a large family of integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs; aka conjugative transposons), confers tetracycline-resistance and is found in several Gram-positive bacterial species. We identified a transcription terminator near one end of Tn916 that functions as an insulator that prevents expression of element genes when Tn916 is integrated downstream from an active host promoter. …”

Synthesis of Silver Abietate as an Antibacterial Agent for Textile Applications by A. Yıldız, M. Değirmencioğlu

“…The new Ag abietate complex has no environmental hazard, its antibacterial activities were evaluated after being applied to cotton fabric by padding process according to the JIS L 1902-2008 agar diffusion test method and against three Gram-negative and three Gram-positive bacteria, respectively. Stability of antibacterial effect after repeated washings (3, 5, 10, and 20) was also tested which indicated that the synthesized silver abietate compound could be used as a new antibacterial agent in textile industry. …”
