Identification and characterisation of two functional antibiotic MATE efflux pumps in the archaeon Halorubrum amylolyticum

open access: yesnpj Antimicrobials and Resistance
Multidrug efflux pumps have been found to play a crucial role in drug resistance in bacteria and eukaryotes. In this study, we investigated the presence of functional multidrug and toxic compound extrusion (MATE) efflux pumps, inferred from whole genome ...

Growth and shear loss characteristics of an aerobic biofilm : a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Technology in Biotechnology at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The application of biofilms in fermentation and waste treatment processes has been increasingly considered in recent years due to several inherent advantages over suspended growth systems.

Multiscale Hybrid Surface Topographies Orchestrate Immune Regulation, Antibacterial Defense, and Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hybrid wrinkled topographies coordinate immune, tissue, and bacterial interactions. The surfaces promote osteointegration, tune macrophage polarization, and inhibit biofilm formation, highlighting a multifunctional strategy for next‐generation implant design.

Beyond Bioactive Glass Composition: Using Morphology to Improve in Vitro and in Vivo Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bioactive glasses can easily be shaped into granules, spheres, discs, fibers, or three‐dimensional scaffolds. The resulting morphology not only affects handling properties; it has a direct influence on various glass properties, including results of acellular immersion experiments or in vitro studies with cells or bacteria, but also on in vivo ...

Thiolated Hyaluronic Acid: A Gateway for Targeted Killing of Staphylococcus aureus on the Race for Surface Colonization

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Thiolated hyaluronic acid (HAMS) synthesized and characterized by NMR, solubility, thiol content, and pKa, is degraded by Staphylococcal hyaluronate lyase but not by mammalian hyaluronidase. Coating polyphosphate–M23 phage endolysin nanoparticles (M23‐PP) with HAMS confers Staphylococcus aureus responsiveness.

Biofilm Formation and the Role of Efflux Pumps in ESKAPE Pathogens

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Nosocomial infections caused by ESKAPE pathogens represent a significant burden to global health. These pathogens may exhibit multidrug resistance (MDR) mechanisms, of which mechanisms such as efflux pumps and biofilm formation are gaining significant ...
