Exopolysaccharides and Biofilms
2020During infection, many fungal pathogens form biofilms within tissues or on biomedical devices. The growth of fungi within biofilms increases dramatically their resistance to both immune defences and antifungal therapies. In the last twenty years, studies have begun to shed light on many of the steps involved in biofilm synthesis and composition ...

In nature, over 99% of bacteria are found attached to surfaces in a slime-encased community known as a biofilm. The physiology of adherent cells is dramatically different from that of planktonic (free-floating) cells; particularly, their ability to tolerate exposure to toxic compounds.

The idea that bacteria grow preferentially on surfaces has come to the fore at regular intervals, for more than 150 years, whenever microbiologists have used direct methods to examine natural populations of these organisms growing in real ecosystems. In 1947, Antonie van Leuwenhoek used his primitive but effective microscope to describe aggregates of ...

Biofilm je sesilna zajednica mikroorganizama koja se formira na mnogim biotičkim i gotovo svim abiotičkim površinama. Ova multicelularna zajednica mikroorganizama ima kompleksnu strukturu i fiziološki se razlikuje od planktonskih oblika. Biofilm nastaje u oko 60% infekcija u ljudi, pokazuje veliku otpornost na djelovanje antibiotika i vrlo ga je ...
