A study of Clostridium difficile in biofilm mode of growth using the Sorbarod filter system [PDF]

In all ecosystems, bacteria are likely to grow in biofilms, and the organisms making up the natural flora of the colon are considered to be no exception to this. One of the most important hospital-acquired infections is antibiotic associated diarrhoea,

Engineering programmable peptide hydrogels for chronic refractory wounds: A mechanism‐driven framework

BMEMat, EarlyView.
To break the self‐perpetuating pathology of chronic wounds, we propose a mechanism‐driven engineering framework for peptide‐based hydrogels. This review elucidates a hierarchical strategy—from molecular design to intelligent, multi‐functional systems—that enables these programmable biomaterials to dynamically intervene in key pathological loops and ...

Anti-biofilm potential and mode of action of Malaysian plant species: a review

, 2020
Biofilm is a microbial community that attaches to a surface and is enclosed in extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) matrix. Formation of biofilm often develops resistance towards a wide spectrum of antimicrobial agents.

Tannic acid–metal biomaterials for skin repair: Principles, immune microenvironment modulation, and translational perspectives

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Tannic acid–metal materials are emerging as versatile wound biomaterials, but their value depends on more than multifunctionality. This review maps how tannic acid alone, free metal ions, and coordinated TA–metal systems differ in design logic, immune‐microenvironment effects, and translational potential, offering a practical framework for choosing ...

Dietary Artificial Sweeteners: From Chemical Transformation in Food to Gut Microbial Processing

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
This review article unites classical and recent findings on the stability of artificial sweeteners in food. The focus is on ten sweeteners approved in the European Union: their chemical stability during processing and storage, individual degradation products, and their interactions with the intestinal microbiota.

Vaginal host–microbe signatures linked to placental outcomes in mares

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ascending placentitis is a leading cause of late‐term pregnancy loss in mares. Although pathogens are presumed to ascend from the caudal reproductive tract, the association between the vaginal microbiome and placentitis has not been systematically examined.
