Efficacy of microencapsulated nisin with sodium alginate and chitosan on biofilm formation in Listeria monocytogenes [PDF]
Bihdāsht-i Mavādd-i Ghaz̠āyī, 2022 Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen the cause of listeriosis that has long-term survival due to biofilm formation. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of nisin 102 IU/ml, encapsulated nisin with chitosan and sodium alginate on biofilm

Genome-wide mutagenesis of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri reveals novel genetic determinants and regulation mechanisms of biofilm formation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac) causes citrus canker disease, a major threat to citrus production worldwide. Accumulating evidence suggests that the formation of biofilms on citrus leaves plays an important role in the epiphytic survival of this ...

Biofilms formed by Candida albicans bloodstream isolates display phenotypic and transcriptional heterogeneity that are associated with resistance and pathogenicity [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Candida albicans infections have become increasingly recognised as being biofilm related. Recent studies have shown that there is a relationship between biofilm formation and poor clinical outcomes in patients infected with biofilm ...

Antibiotic susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus with different degrees of biofilm formation
Journal of Analytical Science and Technology, 2021 Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogens in biofilm-associated chronic infections. S. aureus living within biofilms evades the host immune response and is more resistant to antibiotics than planktonic bacteria.
