Influence of Polymer Substratum onto Arthobacter Oxydans 1388 Biofilm Formation [PDF]

Bioautomation, 2009
Microorganisms attach to surfaces and develop biofilms. Biofilm-associated cells can be differentiated from their suspended counterparts by generation of an extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) matrix, reduced growth rates, and the up- and down ...

Relationship between chromium(VI) resistance and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) concentration by some cyanobacterial isolates

, 2008
Background, aim, and scope Chromium(VI) resistance and its association with extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) concentration in cyanobacteria was investigated. Increased EPS concentration was associated with Cr(VI) resistance.

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Biomineralization of primary carbonate cements: a new biosignature in the fossil record from the Anisian of Southern Italy

Lethaia, EarlyView., 2021
Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Binding of phenanthrene to extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from aerobic activated sludge: A fluorescence study

, 2010
Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are the essential components of activated sludge for removal of pollutants from wastewater. Limited information is available on the binding constants and binding mode of organic pollutants to EPS.

Mechanism of Zn(II) enhanced biodegradation of m-dichlorobenzene

Environmental Pollutants & Bioavailability, 2021
M-dichlorobenzene can be degraded through biotrickling filter (BTF). However, its degradation needs to be enhanced, and the mechanism of enhancement is unclear.

One‐Step Immobilized Phage Depolymerase Coatings for Catheter‐Related Bloodstream Infections

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Catheter‐related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) caused by drug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria remain a major clinical challenge. Here, a polydopamine‐assisted depolymerase coating degrades bacterial capsules and restores serum‐mediated killing, effectively suppressing biofilms and reducing bacterial burden in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo, presenting a

The Effectiveness of Propolis Extract against Extracellular Polymeric Substance (EPS) Biofilm Enterococcus Faecalis Bacteria [PDF]

, 2021
The resistance of Enterococcus faecalis bacteria in root canals is because it can form a biofilm. Biofilms are communities of microorganisms in a complex and dynamic structure attached to a surface, embedded in Extracellular Polymeric Substance (EPS ...
