Development of an Ex Vivo Organ Culture Technique to Evaluate Probiotic Utilization in IBD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The consistent technical and conceptual progress in the study of the microbiota has led novel impulse to the research for therapeutical application of probiotic bacteria in human pathologies, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

A Laboratory Assessment of Factors That Affect Bacterial Adhesion to Contact Lenses

open access: yesBiology, 2013
Adhesion of pathogenic microbes, particularly bacteria, to contact lenses is implicated in contact lens related microbial adverse events. Various in vitro conditions such as type of bacteria, the size of initial inoculum, contact lens material ...

The Impact of Plasma Membrane Lipid Composition on Flagellum-Mediated Adhesion of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli

open access: yesmSphere, 2020
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 is a major cause of foodborne gastrointestinal illness. The adhesion of EHEC to host tissues is the first step enabling bacterial colonization. Adhesins such as fimbriae and flagella mediate this process.

Xanthan pyruvilation is essential for the virulence of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Xanthan, the main exopolysaccharide (EPS) synthesized by Xanthomonas spp., contributes to bacterial stress tolerance and enhances attachment to plant surfaces by helping in biofilm formation.

Bacterial adhesion

open access: yes
As mentioned in the introduction of this thesis bacterial adhesion has been studied from a variety of (mostly practice oriented) starting points. This has resulted in a range of widely divergent approaches. In order to elucidate general principles in bacterial adhesion phenomena, we felt it was necessary to start from a fundamental level i.e.

Role of lactobacilli and lactoferrin in the mucosal cervicovaginal defense [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Human lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein present at high concentrations in breast milk and colostrum. It is produced by many exocrine glands and widely distributed in a variety of body fluids.

Bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation on linen fabrics: Exploring the influence of textile factors

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
Natural fibres are increasingly valued for their sustainability, comfort, and potential health benefits. Linen is often assumed to possess inherent antibacterial properties, yet evidence remains inconsistent.

Quantification of Bacterial Attachment to Tissue Sections

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2018
Here we describe a method to test bacterial adhesion to paraffin embedded tissue sections. This method allows examining binding of different bacterial strains, transfected with a fluorescent protein reporter plasmid to various tissues, to better ...

Hydrophilic polymer‐coated PVC surface for reduced cell and bacterial adhesions

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2022
Hydrophilic polymers are very useful in biomedical applications. In this study, biocompatible polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) polymers end‐capped with succinimidyl groups were either modified or synthesised and attached to ...
