Antimicrobial Peptides With Antibiofilm Activity Against Xylella fastidiosa [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Xylella fastidiosa is a plant pathogen that was recently introduced in Europe and is causing havoc to its agriculture. This Gram-negative bacterium invades the host xylem, multiplies, and forms biofilm occluding the vessels and killing its host. In spite

Antibiofilm and Antimicrobial Properties of 1-allyl-3-(2-diisopropylaminoethyl) Benzimidazolium Chloride and its Silver(I)-NHC Complex

Cumhuriyet Science Journal, 2022
Today, the number of antimicrobials used in treatment has decreased, especially due to drug resistance. We need new antimicrobials. Biofilms are an important cause of antimicrobial resistance.

Identification of Distinct Characteristics of Antibiofilm Peptides and Prospection of Diverse Sources for Efficacious Sequences

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
A majority of microbial infections are associated with biofilms. Targeting biofilms is considered an effective strategy to limit microbial virulence while minimizing the development of antibiotic resistance.
