Bacterial biofilms, often associated with chronic infections, respond poorly to antibiotic therapy and frequently require surgical intervention. Biofilms harbor persister cells, metabolically indolent cells, which are tolerant to most conve...

Electrotaxis is the property of cells to sense electric fields and use them to orient their displacement. This property has been widely investigated with eukaryotic cells but it remains unclear whether or not bacterial cells can sense an el...
Milieu matters: An in vitro wound milieu to recapitulate key features of, and probe new insights into, mixed-species bacterial biofilms [0.03%]
环境至关重要:一种体外伤口环境,可重现混合物种生物被膜的关键特征并探索新的见解

Bacterial biofilms are a major cause of delayed wound healing. Consequently, the study of wound biofilms, particularly in host-relevant conditions, has gained importance. Most in vitro studies employ refined laboratory media to study biofil...
Regulation of Cunninghamella spp. biofilm growth by tryptophol and tyrosol [0.03%]
色氨醇和酪醇对 Cunninghamella spp. 生物被膜生长的调节作用

Fungi belonging to the genus Cunninghamella are often used as microbial models of mammalian metabolism owing to their ability to transform a range of xenobiotic compounds. Furthermore, under specific growth conditions species such as Cunnin...
Transcriptional profiling of biofilms formed on chilled beef by psychrotrophic meat spoilage bacterium, Pseudomonas fragi 1793 [0.03%]
专性低温肉品腐败菌荧光假单胞菌1793在冷鲜肉表面形成生物被膜的转录组分析

Pseudomonas fragi is the predominant bacterial species associated with spoiled aerobically stored chilled meat worldwide. It readily forms biofilms on meat under refrigerated temperature conditions used in the meat industry. Biofilm growth ...
Topography quantifications allow for identifying the contribution of parental strains to physical properties of co-cultured biofilms [0.03%]
拓扑定量分析能够识别双菌共培养生物被膜物理性质中亲本菌的贡献程度

Most biofilm research has so far focused on investigating biofilms generated by single bacterial strains. However, such single-species biofilms are rare in nature where bacteria typically coexist with other microorganisms. Although, from a ...

The entrenched dogma of a sterile middle ear mucosa in health is incongruent with its periodic aeration and seeding with saliva aerosols. To test this, we sequenced 16S rRNA-V4 amplicons from otic secretions collected at the nasopharyngeal ...

The ability of a bacterial strain to form a biofilm is strictly related to its pathogenicity. Bacterial adherence and early biofilm formation are influenced by chemical, physical and biological factors that determine their pathogenic proper...
Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae newly released (NRel) from biofilms by antibody-mediated dispersal versus antibody-mediated disruption are phenotypically distinct [0.03%]
抗体介导的非可培养流感嗜血杆菌生物膜释放和破坏产生表型不同的菌株
Elaine M Mokrzan,Christian P Ahearn,John R Buzzo et al.
Elaine M Mokrzan et al.
Biofilms contribute significantly to the chronicity and recurrence of bacterial diseases due to the fact that biofilm-resident bacteria are highly recalcitrant to killing by host immune effectors and antibiotics. Thus, antibody-mediated rel...
