Inhibition and Reduction of Biofilm Production along with Their Antibiogram Pattern among Gram-Negative Clinical Isolates

International Journal of Biomaterials, 2023
Background. Bacterial biofilm is a significant virulence factor threatening patients, leading to chronic infections and economic burdens. Therefore, it is crucial to identify biofilm production, its inhibition, and reduction.

Advances in Nanotechnology for Biofilm Inhibition. [PDF]

ACS Omega, 2023
Biofilm-associated infections have emerged as a significant public health challenge due to their persistent nature and increased resistance to conventional treatment methods. The indiscriminate usage of antibiotics has made us susceptible to a range of multidrug-resistant pathogens.

Small-Molecule Inhibition of Bacterial Biofilm [PDF]

ACS Omega, 2020
Abstract Antibiotic resistance is a massive and serious threat to human welfare and healthcare. Apart from being genetically resistant to antibiotics, the other important mechanism by which bacteria can evade antibiotics is multidrug tolerance.

Antimicrobial and Biofilm Inhibiting Diketopiperazines

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2012
Diketopiperazines are the smallest cyclic peptides known. 90% of Gram-negative bacteria produce diketopiperazines and they have also been isolated from Gram-positive bacteria, fungi and higher organisms. Biosynthesis of cyclodipeptides can be achieved by dedicated nonribosomal peptide synthetases or by a novel type of synthetases named cyclopeptide ...

Dispersal and inhibition of biofilms associated with infections [PDF]

Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2020
As bacteria aggregate and form biofilms on surfaces in the human body such as tissues, indwelling medical devices, dressings and implants, they can cause a significant health risk. Bacterial biofilms possess altered phenotypes: physical features that facilitate antibiotic resistance and evasion of the host immune response.

Anti-Biofilm Effects of Rationally Designed Peptides against Planktonic Cells and Pre-Formed Biofilm of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Antibiotics, 2023
Biofilms are resistant to antibiotics and are a major source of persistent and recurring infections by clinically important pathogens. Drugs used for biofilm-associated infections are limited because biofilm-embedded or biofilm-matrix bacteria are ...

Control Measurements of Escherichia coli Biofilm: A Review

Foods, 2022
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a common pathogen that causes diarrhea in humans and animals. In particular, E. coli can easily form biofilm on the surface of living or non-living carriers, which can lead to the cross-contamination of food.

The Effect of Pluchea indica Less Leaves Extract Againts Biofilm of Enterococcus faecalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum In Vitro

Denta, 2021
Background: Enterococcus faecalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum are the most common bacteria found in infected root canal teeth and most of them often caused failure in endodontic treatments. These bacteria can form biofilm which makes them more resistant
