Thermodynamic Inhibition in a Biofilm Reactor with Suspended Bacteria
Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2021We formulate a biofilm reactor model with suspended bacteria that accounts for thermodynamic growth inhibition. The reactor model is a chemostat style model consisting of a single replenished growth promoting substrate, a single reaction product, suspended bacteria, and wall attached bacteria in the form of a bacterial biofilm.

Thymol inhibits Candida albicans biofilm formation and mature biofilm
International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2008Candida albicans has a high propensity to develop biofilms that are resistant to traditional antifungal agents. Thymol is credited with a series of pharmacological properties including antimicrobial and antifungal effects. As C. albicans biofilms are known to be important factors underlying its virulence and pathogenicity, the aim of this study was to ...

Fungal infections constitute a major threat for an expanding population of immunosuppressed patients, as these infections carry unacceptably high morbidity and mortality rates due to, among other reasons, the limited arsenal of antifungal agents. One of the main factors complicating antifungal therapy is the formation of fungal biofilms, resulting in ...

Biofilm Inhibition by Nanoparticles
2014Infectious diseases are of immediate concern due to their high rate of morbidity and mortality. Infectious diseases are life threatening in the current scenario as the causative agents are resistant to almost all the drugs in use. Apart from well-known factors like efflux pumps, receptor modifications, and drug inactivation, formation of biofilms ...

Inhibition of biofilm populations of Nitrosomonas europaea
Microbial Ecology, 1992The influence of surface attachment and growth on inhibition of the ammonia oxidizing bacterium, Nitrosomonas europaea, by nitrapyrin was investigated in liquid culture in the presence and absence of glass slides. Significant attachment to glass slides occurred in the absence of ammonia, but the extent of attachment was not affected by nitrapyrin, nor ...

Inhibition of streptococcal biofilm by hydrogen water
Journal of Dentistry, 2017The accumulation of oral bacterial biofilm is the main etiological factor of oral diseases. Recently, electrolyzed hydrogen-rich water (H-water) has been shown to act as an effective antioxidant by reducing oxidative stress. In addition to this general health benefit, H-water has antibacterial activity for disease-associated oral bacteria.

Biofilm Inhibition on Superhydrophobic PDMS
2019Suppressing the propagation of germs is a common challenge in a variety of fields, including the environment, industry and human healthcare. However, since the number of all surface bacteria spread throughout the industry is significant, it is impossible to sterilize them all.
