Ultra microelectrodes increase the current density provided by electroactive biofilms by improving their electron transport ability [PDF]
, 2012 Electroactive biofilms were formed from garden compost leachate on platinum wires under constant polarisation at -0.2 V vs. SCE and temperature controlled at 40 C.

Synergistic metabolism of salivary MUC5B in oral commensal bacteria during early biofilm formation
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 Bacterial metabolism in oral biofilms is comprised of complex networks of nutritional chains and biochemical regulations. These processes involve both intraspecies and interspecies networks as well as interactions with components from host saliva ...

Biofilm-stimulated epithelium modulates the inflammatory responses in co-cultured immune cells [PDF]
, 2019 The gingival epithelium is a physical and immunological barrier to the microbiota of the oral cavity, which interact through soluble mediators with the immune cells that patrol the tissue at the gingival epithelium.

Microbiology Spectrum, 2008 ABSTRACTStaphylococci, with the leading speciesStaphylococcus aureusandStaphylococcus epidermidis, are the most frequent causes of infections on indwelling medical devices. The biofilm phenotype that those bacteria adopt during device-associated infection facilitates increased resistance to antibiotics and host immune defenses. This review presents and

Tolerance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in in vitro biofilms to high level peracetic acid disinfection [PDF]
, 2017 Biofilm has been suggested as a cause of disinfection failures in flexible endoscopes where no lapses in the decontamination procedure can be identified. To test this theory, the activity of peracetic acid (PAA), one of the commonly used disinfectants in

The sociobiology of biofilms [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2009 Biofilms are densely packed communities of microbial cells that grow on surfaces and surround themselves with secreted polymers. Many bacterial species form biofilms, and their study has revealed them to be complex and diverse. The structural and physiological complexity of biofilms has led to the idea that they are coordinated and cooperative groups ...
