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 ...

International microbiology : the official journal of the Spanish Society for Microbiology, 2009 Over 60% of bacterial infections (and up to 80% of chronic infections) are currently considered to involve microbial growth in biofilms. This peculiar form of life poses an array of problems in human clinical practice, from infections associated with the implant of prosthetic devices and dental plaque formation to diseases such as cystic fibrosis ...
