Anti-biofilm Activities from Resveratrol against Fusobacterium nucleatum [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Fusobacterium nucleatum is a Gram-negative, anaerobic bacterium that plays an important role in dental plaque biofilm formation. In this study, we evaluate the effect of resveratrol, a phytoalexin compound, on F. nucleatum biofilm formation. The effects of different concentrations of resveratrol on biofilms formed on 96-well microtiter plates at ...

Anti-Biofilm Properties of Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3856 and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus ATCC 53103 Probiotics against G. vaginalis

, 2020
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is characterized by the presence of a polymicrobial biofilm where Gardnerella vaginalis plays a key role. Previously, we demonstrated that Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM (French National Collection of Cultures of Microorganisms) I-

Determination of stability and kinetic characterization of lysozyme (isolated from Bacillus subtilis BSN314)

The Microbe
This study investigated the stability and anti-biofilm activity of a lysozyme purified from Bacillus subtilis BSN314. The hypothesis that the enzyme's anti-biofilm effect is concentration- and time-dependent was tested. Lysozyme stability was assessed by

In vitro and in vivo anti-biofilm activity of pyran derivative against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2020
Background: The development of bacterial biofilm can cause severe chronic infections and antibiotic resistance. Therefore, it poses a significant threat to public health. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.

Maipomycin A, a Novel Natural Compound With Promising Anti-biofilm Activity Against Gram-Negative Pathogenic Bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Pathogenic bacterial biofilms play an important role in recurrent nosocomial and medical device-related infections. Once occurred, the complex structure of the biofilm promotes the development of antibiotic resistance and becomes extremely difficult to ...

Antifungal and anti-biofilm activity of designed derivatives from kyotorphin

Fungal Biology, 2020
Kyotorphin (KTP, l-tyrosyl-l-arginine) is an endogenous analgesic neuropeptide first isolated from bovine brain in 1979. Previous studies have shown that kyotorphins possess anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity. Six kyotorphins-KTP-NH2, KTP-NH2-DL, ibuprofen-conjugated KTP (IbKTP), IbKTP-NH2, N-methyl-D-Tyr-L-Arg, and N-methyl-L-Tyr-D-Arg-were ...
