DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-47572-2
Abstract: Checkerboard lattices—where the resulting structure is open, porous, and highly symmetric—are difficult to create by self-assembly. Synthetic systems that adopt such structures typically rely on shape complementarity and site-specific chemical interactions that are only available… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics13040337
Abstract: A two-dimensional “checkerboard” array employing systematic titration (e.g., serial two-fold dilutions) is a well-established in vitro method for exploring the antibacterial effects of novel drug combinations. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) on the checkerboard are isoeffective… read more here.
