Detection of Aerobic Bacterial Endospores: From Air Sampling, Sterilization Validation to Astrobiology [PDF]

, 2008
Bacterial endospores are formed in genera such as Bacillus and Clostridium in times of incipient stresses. Derivative of their remarkable resistance and ubiquity, endospores are delivery vehicles for anthrax attack, biological indicators for checking ...

Immunoinflammatory Mechanisms and Biocompatibility of Bioactive Dental Biomaterials: From Fundamental Insights to Clinical Translation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Surface‐host dialogue at the implant interface governs biological fate and osseointegration. Surface physicochemical properties of titanium (Ti) dental implants, including microgrooves, nanopatterns, nanotopography, roughness, and wettability, modulate the initial adsorption of proteins and the formation of a dynamic biointerface.

Screening of Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated from Foods for Interference with Bacterial Quorum Sensing Systems

Biology and Life Sciences Forum
Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell-to-cell communication mechanism through which microorganisms can sense their population density and adjust their physiology by producing and detecting small signaling molecules called autoinducers (AIs).

Community acquired infections and bacterial resistance

BMJ, 1998
In this paper we review the problems of antibiotic resistance in community acquired infections. We discuss pathogens that have a large impact on morbidity and mortality in the community such as Streptococcus pneumoniae , Streptococcus pyogenes , Neisseria meningitidis , the enteric pathogens Salmonella spp and Campylobacter spp, and the urinary tract ...

The role of coherence in bacterial communication

, 2017
Bacteria within biofilms can coordinate their behavior through distinct from of communication mechanism1. The well-established cell - to - cell signaling process in bacteria is known as quorum sensing through chemical signaling molecules2-5.
