The Effect of Cell-Free Nontuberculous Mycobacterium Supernatants on Antibiotic Resistance and Biofilm Formation of Opportunistic Pathogens

Bacteria, 2023
The presence of nontuberculous mycobacteria in biofilms on the surface of medical devices may affect the opportunistic pathogens that are common inhabitants of such biofilms.

The Epidome - a species-specific approach to assess the population structure and heterogeneity of Staphylococcus epidermidis colonization and infection

BMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Although generally known as a human commensal, Staphylococcus epidermidis is also an opportunistic pathogen that can cause nosocomial infections related to foreign body materials and immunocompromized patients.

The Isolation, Screening, and Characterization of Polyhydroxyalkanoate-Producing Bacteria from Hypersaline Lakes in Kenya

Bacteria, 2023
Extremophilic microorganisms such as those that thrive in high-salt and high-alkaline environments are promising candidates for the recovery of useful biomaterials including polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs).

Methanotrophic bacteria. [PDF]

Microbiological reviews, 1996
Methane-utilizing bacteria (methanotrophs) are a diverse group of gram-negative bacteria that are related to other members of the Proteobacteria. These bacteria are classified into three groups based on the pathways used for assimilation of formaldehyde, the major source of cell carbon, and other physiological and morphological features. The type I and

Working with bacteria and putting bacteria to work: The biopolitics of synthetic biology for energy in the United Kingdom [PDF]

, 2017
The UK government has made significant investment into so called ‘fourth-generation’ biofuel technologies. These biofuels are based on engineering the metabolic pathways of bacteria in order to create products compatible with existing infrastructure ...

Inferring models of bacterial dynamics toward point sources [PDF]

, 2015
Experiments have shown that bacteria can be sensitive to small variations in chemoattractant (CA) concentrations. Motivated by these findings, our focus here is on a regime rarely studied in experiments: bacteria tracking point CA sources (such as food ...

Microbial Isolation [PDF]

, 2020
The importance of isolating a microbe from the environment, such as food (solid substrate), drinks (liquid substrate), and yourself because of the many microbes that are difficult to observe or distinguish directly using the five senses.
