Beyond Bactericidal: Plasma Surface Engineering to Defeat Food Matrix‐Conditioning Layers

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The persistence of foodborne pathogens on industrial food contact surfaces continues to challenge global food safety despite advances in sanitation technologies. A central limitation of current antimicrobial strategies lies in their validation under simplified laboratory conditions that overlook the physicochemically driven formation of food ...

Sequence Variability of P2-Like Prophage Genomes Carrying the Cytolethal Distending Toxin V Operon in Escherichia coli O157 [PDF]

, 2013
Cytolethal distending toxins (CDT) are potent cytotoxins of several Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria, including Escherichia coli, in which five types (CDT-I to CDT-V) have been identified so far.

From Dysbiosis to Disease: How Vaginal Microbiota Shape Group B Streptococcus Pathogenesis

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Lactobacillus crispatus plays a critical role in the vaginal microbiome. Limiting glucose shifts metabolism toward HMO consumption and amino acid metabolism. These actions enable alkali production and competition. Homeostasis, characterized by dense Lactobacilli colonization and suppression of pathogens, provides resistance to dysbiosis.

TosR-Mediated Regulation of Adhesins and Biofilm Formation in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

mSphere, 2018
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains utilize a variety of adherence factors that assist in colonization of the host urinary tract. TosA (type one secretion A) is a nonfimbrial adhesin that is predominately expressed during murine urinary tract ...

Curli fimbria: an Escherichia coli adhesin associated with human cystitis

Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2016
Escherichia coli is the major causative agent of human cystitis. In this study, a preliminary molecular analysis carried out by PCR (polymerase chain reaction) demonstrated that 100% of 31 E. coli strains isolated from patients with recurrent UTIs (urinary tract infections) showed the presence of the curli fimbria gene (csgA). Curli fimbria is known to

Identification of intimin alleles in pathogenic Escherichia coli by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis [PDF]

, 2008
A rapid two-step identification method based on PCR-RFLP analysis of the intimin gene was developed to differentiate specific alleles in pathogenic Escherichia coli.

Dynamic distribution of SeqA protein across the chromosome of Escherichia coli K-12 [PDF]

, 2010
The bacterial SeqA protein binds to hemi-methylated GATC sequences that arise in newly synthesized DNA upon passage of the replication machinery. In Escherichia coli K-12, the single replication origin oriC is a well-characterized target for SeqA, which ...

EPEC autotransporter adhesin (Eaa): a novel adhesin identified in atypical enteropathogenic Escherichia coli

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is a pathogen that causes diarrhea that can be subdivided into typical (tEPEC) and atypical (aEPEC), based on the production of an adhesin termed Bundle-Forming Pilus (BFP) in the former group. aEPEC is one of the main bacterial pathogens isolated from individuals with diarrhea, and some serotypes have been ...

Parenteral vaccination with recombinant EtpA glycoprotein impairs enterotoxigenic E. coli colonization

Infection and Immunity
Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) causes hundreds of millions of cases of acute diarrheal illness in low- and middle-income regions, disproportionately in young children.
