The use of germinants to potentiate the sensitivity of Bacillus anthracis spores to peracetic acid

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Elimination of Bacillus anthracis spores from the environment is a difficult and costly process due in part to the toxicity of current sporicidal agents.

First Report on some N2O2‐Donor Sets Tetradentate Schiff Base and Its Metal Complexes: Characterization and Antimicrobial Investigation

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Mass spectrometry, UV‐Vis. spectra, thermal analysis and antimicrobial evaluation were done for a novel tetradentate Schiff base ligand (H2L) and its metal complexes. ABSTRACT The new Schiff base ligand N,N′‐thiophene‐(bis‐1‐ethyl‐6,8‐difluoro‐7‐(3‐methylpiperazin‐1‐yl)‐4‐oxo‐1,4‐dihydroquinoline‐3‐carboxylic acid) (H2L) was synthesized via ...

Influence of Sporulation Temperature on Germination and Growth of B. weihenstephanensis Strains in Specific Nutrients and in an Extended Shelf-Life Refrigerated Matrix Under Commercial Pasteurization and Storage Conditions

Foods
Extended shelf-life (ESL) refrigerated ready-to-eat foods are thermally pasteurized to ensure food safety and stability. However, surviving psychrotrophic Bacillus cereus spores can still pose a challenge. Studies predicting their behavior often overlook

Rosemary Essential Oil Microemulsion for Fungal Keratitis Treatment

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the use of Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) essential oil in a microemulsion (ME) formulation for the treatment of ocular fungal keratitis, a serious infection that can lead to blindness. The ME was characterized in terms of pH, stability, homogeneity, osmolarity, and other physicochemical properties.

Comparative analysis of Bacillus weihenstephanensis KBAB4 spores obtained at different temperatures [PDF]

, 2010
The impact of Bacillus weihenstephanensis KBAB4 sporulation temperature history was assessed on spore heat resistance, germination and outgrowth capacity at a temperature range from 7 to 30 °C. Sporulation rate and efficiency decreased at low temperature,

From Molecule to Meaning: Click and Bioorthogonal Chemical Reporters for Plant Systems, Biological Imaging, and Artistic Expression

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.
At the intersection of chemical biology, plant imaging, and contemporary art, this review introduces the concept of chembioart. By tracing how chemical reporters illuminate plant biomolecules in vivo, their role not only in advancing scientific understanding but also in inspiring transdisciplinary collaborations and visual expression is highlighted ...

Bacterial Spore Injury — An Update

Journal of Food Protection, 1981
Injury has long been recognized in bacterial spores, especially in evaluation of apparent survival after administration of treatments to control these resistant entities. Compared to vegetative cells, the complexity of the germination and outgrowth processes has retarded research activity on injury and resuscitation.

Removal of benzotriazoles from domestic wastewater using Pleurotus ostreatus fungal pellets

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Removal of benzotriazoles from domestic wastewater using a fungal pellet reactor with Pleurotus ostreatus. The system effectively removed CBTR (70%), while BTR (19%), 5‐TTR (17%), and OH‐BTH (16%) showed moderate removal. Abstract Benzotriazoles are a group of persistent and mobile substances commonly found in aquatic environments due to inefficient ...

Para-cresol production by Clostridium difficile affects microbial diversity and membrane integrity of Gram-negative bacteria [PDF]

, 2018
Clostridium difficile is a Gram-positive spore-forming anaerobe and a major cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Disruption of the commensal microbiota, such as through treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics, is a critical precursor for ...

Cu or Fe‐Exchanged Natural Clinoptilolite as Sustainable Light‐Assisted Catalyst for Water Disinfection at Near Neutral pH

ChemPlusChem, EarlyView.
Fe and Cu exchanged natural clinoptilolites are evaluated as heterogeneous photo‐Fenton catalysts for water disinfection under visible light, using E. coli as a model pathogen. Bacterial detection limit is reached in 2 h, with no regrowth observed.
