Southeastern European medical journal, 2018 Aim: The goal of this research is to examine the biofilm forming ability of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates in different in vitro conditions using Meuller-Hinton and Luria-Bertani broths. Material and methods: 30 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 30 strains of Staphylococcus aureus obtained from clinical specimens

mBio, 2011 Bacterial biofilms often form multispecies communities in which complex but ill-understood competition and cooperation interactions occur. In light of the profound physiological modifications associated with this lifestyle, we hypothesized that the ...

Diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis by a new multiplex peptide nucleic acid fluorescence in situ hybridization method [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is one of most common vaginal infections. However, its diagnosis by classical methods reveals low specificity. Our goal was to evaluate the accuracy diagnosis of 150 vaginal samples with research gold standard methods and our ...

Intermittent antibiotic treatment of bacterial biofilms favors the rapid evolution of resistance
Communications Biology, 2023 Mutations in sbmA and fusA are rapidly selected in biofilm but not planktonic E. coli when exposed to intermittent amikacin antibiotic treatment, which suggests that the biofilm environment favors rapid evolution of resistance.

Biofilms and their properties [PDF]
European Journal of Oral Sciences, 2018 Bacteria within the oral cavity live primarily as complex, polymicrobial biofilms. Dental biofilms are necessary etiological factors for dental caries and periodontal diseases but have also been implicated in diseases outside the oral cavity. Biofilm is the preferred lifestyle for bacteria, and biofilms are found on almost any surface in nature ...

Anti-diarrheal drug loperamide induces dysbiosis in zebrafish microbiota via bacterial inhibition
Microbiome, 2023 Background Perturbations of animal-associated microbiomes from chemical stress can affect host physiology and health. While dysbiosis induced by antibiotic treatments and disease is well known, chemical, nonantibiotic drugs have recently been shown to ...

Effects of zinc on microalgal biofilms in intertidal and subtidal habitats [PDF]
, 2011 Microalgal biofilms are sensitive to environmental conditions. Impacts of contaminants on assemblages of marine biofilm are often investigated in laboratories or in mesocosms.
