DETERMINAÇÃO POR ESPECTROMETRIA DE MASSAS DO POTENCIAL DE BIOACUMULAÇÃO DE CONTAMINANTES EMERGENTES EM BIOFILME

Química Nova
DETERMINATION BY MASS SPECTROMETRY OF THE BIOACCUMULATION POTENTIAL OF EMERGING CONTAMINANTS IN BIOFILM. Personal hygiene products, such as UV filters, are consumed daily and released at sewage treatment plants. The presence of these compounds in aquatic

Biofilms

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 1999
Outside of the laboratory, most microbes grow as organised biofilm communities on surfaces. The past year has seen important advances in our understanding of how cells initiate biofilm formation. We have also begun to appreciate how cells can co-ordinate their activities and build the complex structures of mature biofilms that afford protection for ...

O PAPEL DA FORMAÇÃO DE BIOFILME EM LEPTOSPIRA: PROTEÇÃO DA AGRESSÃO DO MEIO AMBIENTE E INVASÃO E EVASÃO DO HOSPEDEIRO

, 2021
Introdução: Leptospiras são bactérias Gram-negativas, capazes de sobreviver no solo e na água por longos períodos. O gênero Leptospira é classificado em espécies saprofíticas e patogênicas.

Microbial Biofilms and Biofilm Reactors

2018
Scientists and engineers have realized the industrial and environmental significance of biofilm accumulation and activity. The ability to predict and control biofilm formation has led to less fouling and corrosion in industrial systems and a better understanding of biofilm importance in natural aquatic systems.

MICROBIAL BIOFILMS

Annual Review of Microbiology, 1995
Direct observations have clearly shown that biofilm bacteria predominate, numerically and metabolically, in virtually all nutrient-sufficient ecosystems. Therefore, these sessile organisms predominate in most of the environmental, industrial, and medical problems and processes of interest to microbiologists.

Candida biofilms

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2002
In response to attachment to a surface, fungal cells produce biofilms, three-dimensional structures composed of cells surrounded by exopolymeric matrices. Surface attachment causes Candida albicans cells to enter a special physiological state in which they are highly resistant to antifungal drugs and express the drug efflux determinants CDR1, CDR2 and ...

Bacterial biofilms

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1993
Over the review period, a significant amount of literature has been published documenting the impact of biofilms on engineered and biomedical systems. Reactor systems and analytical techniques have evolved to study the molecular chemistry and microbial ecology within biofilm layers only tens of micrometers thick, and various protocols have been ...

Biofilm Risks

2005
This chapter on biofilm risks deals with biofilm formation of pathogenic microbes, sampling and detection methods, biofilm removal, and prevention of biofilm formation. Several common pathogens produce sticky and/or slimy structures in which the cells are embedded, that is, biofilms, on various surfaces in food processing.

Biofilm Architecture

2013
Microbial biofilms are complex self-organized communities of microbial cells that provide protective environments for the cells that inhabit the biofilm, enabling them to respond efficiently to challenges. The enhanced resistance and altered metabolism of the cells in the biofilm makes biofilms potentially very useful in chemical production processes ...
