405 nm light exposure of osteoblasts and inactivation of bacterial isolates from arthroplasty patients : potential for new disinfection applications? [PDF]
Infection rates after arthroplasty surgery are between 1-4 %, rising significantly after revision procedures. To reduce the associated costs of treating these infections, and the patients' post-operative discomfort and trauma, a new preventative method ...

Do Melanocytes Have a Role in Controlling Epidermal Bacterial Colonisation and the Skin Microbiome?
ABSTRACT In addition to producing melanin to protect epidermal keratinocytes against DNA damage, melanocytes may have important roles in strengthening innate immunity against pathogens. We have developed a functional, pigmented, human full‐thickness 3D skin equivalent to determine whether the presence of melanocytes impacts epidermal bacterial growth ...

Occurrence of Corynebacterium striatum as an emerging antibiotic-resistant nosocomial pathogen in a Tunisian hospital [PDF]
Corynebacterium striatum is a nosocomial opportunistic pathogen increasingly associated with a wide range of human infections and is often resistant to several antibiotics. We investigated the susceptibility of 63 C.

Abstract Wound aetiology, host characteristics and the wound microbiome contribute to chronic wound development. Yet, there is little accounting for the relative importance of these factors to predict wound healing. Here, a structural equation model was developed to provide such an explanatory and predictive framework.

Pressure injuries and biofilms: Microbiome, model systems and therapies
Abstract Chronic wounds have emerged as significant clinical problems owing to their increasing incidence and greater recognition of associated morbidity and socio‐economic burden. They are defined as wounds that do not progress normally through the stages of healing in a timely and/or orderly manner.
