The role of cydB gene in the biofilm formation by Campylobacter jejuni
Scientific ReportsCampylobacter jejuni is a major cause of food- and water-borne bacterial infections in humans. A key factor helping bacteria to survive adverse environmental conditions is biofilm formation ability.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Engineered phage‐based trifunctional nanofibers are developed for synergistic biofilm eradication. Biofilm‐binding phages, armed with AuNPs and TCPP, serve as both warheads and scaffolds, endowing the phototherapy agents with biofilm‐anchoring ability. Upon light irradiation, AuNPs induce photothermal therapy, while TCPP generates 1O2 for photodynamic ...

Calcium signaling controls early stage biofilm formation and dispersal in Vibrio fischeri
Journal of BacteriologyBacterial dispersal from a biofilm is presently the least-studied step of the biofilm life cycle. The symbiotic bacterial species Vibrio fischeri is a model organism for studying biofilms relevant to a eukaryotic host; however, methodology is lacking to ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.We proposed a method based on the piezoelectric effect and fabricated an implant abutment on the basis of piezoelectric ceramic. Under physiological occlusal pressure, the oral motion‐powered smart dental implant abutments interacted with water and oxygen, promoting the formation of reactive oxygen species and achieving a synergistic and highly ...

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Biofilm formation by clinical isolates and the implications in chronic infections
BMC Infectious Diseases, 2013 Background Biofilm formation is a major virulence factor contributing to the chronicity of infections. To date few studies have evaluated biofilm formation in infecting isolates of patients including both Gram-positive and Gram-negative multidrug ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An edible biohybrid platform triggers nanoplastics (NPs) aging and agglomeration by in situ generating hydroxyl radicals within the intestine. The enlarged NPs are unable to penetrate the intestine and are subsequently excreted. Simultaneously, probiotic biofilms reinforce the intestinal barrier.
