Insights into the CRISPR/Cas system of Gardnerella vaginalis [PDF]
Gardnerella vaginalis is identified as the predominant colonist of the vaginal tracts of women diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis (BV). G. vaginalis can be isolated from healthy women, and an asymptomatic BV state is also recognised. The association of G.

In vitro bacterial vaginosis biofilm community manipulation using endolysin therapy
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) affects approximately 26% of women of childbearing age globally, presenting with 3–5 times increased risk of miscarriage and two-fold risk of pre-term birth.

Cervical Gardnerella vaginalis in women with preterm prelabor rupture of membranes
Objective To determine the association between microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity (MIAC) and/or intra-amniotic inflammation (IAI) and the cervical prevalence of Gardnerella vaginalis DNA in pregnancies with preterm prelabor rupture of membrane ...

Pili on Gardnerella vaginalis studied by electronmicroscopy [PDF]
Fourteen recently isolated strains and two laboratory strains of Gardnerella vaginalis were examined by electronmicroscopy for the presence of pili. All strains isolated recently from both men and women were heavily pilated. In contrast only a few pili were seen on organisms of the two laboratory strains, with many of the organisms having no pili.

The vagina is colonized by a variety of microbes that serve vital roles in the maintenance of vaginal health. The purpose of the present study was to explore the underlying mechanism by which Gardnerella vaginalis (GV) can induce bacterial vaginosis (BV).

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is caused by a microbial imbalance of the vaginal ecosystem, causing genital discomfort and potentially even various complications in women. Moreover, research on the treatment or prevention of BV is increasing. In this study, we

Binding of catalase byGardnerella vaginalis [PDF]
Previous work has demonstrated that Gardnerella vaginalis can utilize catalase as a sole source of iron. In this study, the interaction between G. vaginalis cells and catalase was investigated. G. vaginalis cells were shown to bind digoxigenin (DIG)-labeled catalase using a solid phase dot blot assay.

Antimicrobial susceptibilities of Gardnerella vaginalis
The in vitro susceptibilities of 93 clinical isolates of Gardnerella vaginalis to 25 antimicrobial agents were determined by the agar dilution method. All isolates were susceptible to penicillin, ampicillin, erythromycin, clindamycin, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim.
