Scientists develop effective intranasal mumps-based COVID-19 vaccine candidate
The researchers used a modified live attenuated mumps virus for delivery, showing that a more stable coronavirus spike protein stimulates a stronger immune response, and suggesting a dose up the nose has an advantage over a shot.

A multi-step analysis including GCI reveals novel insight into LPS translocation
Antibiotic resistance is one of the key health challenges of the future. In a new study, researchers have carried out a multi-step analysis to deliver insights into translocation of the hydrophobic and hydrophilic portions of the large lipopolysaccharide molecules through the outer membrane of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. This article summarises their…
