Expression of icaA and icaD genes in biofilm formation in Staphylococcus aureus isolates from bovine subclinical mastitis

open access: yesPesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2021
: Staphylococcus spp. plays a significant role in the etiology of bovine mastitis. Staphylococcus aureus is considered the most important species due to the high prevalence and the difficulty of in vivo treatment that is related to the expression of ...

icaA Gene of Staphylococcus aureus Responds to NaCl, Leading to Increased Biofilm Formation

open access: yesJournal of Food Protection, 2018
The objective of this study was to elucidate the role of the icaA gene in biofilm formation of Staphylococcus aureus exposed to NaCl. The icaA-deletion mutant of S. aureus ATCC 13565 was constructed with the temperature-sensitive plasmid pIMAY. Microtiter plate assays were performed to confirm biofilm formation for both the wild type and the mutant at ...

Automated Scoring of Creative Achievement

open access: yesThe Journal of Creative Behavior, Volume 60, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The assessment of creative achievement (CA) can be cumbersome as participants are typically asked to respond to long lists of possible accomplishments that may still miss their very specific achievements. A bottom‐up alternative is to let participants openly report their most significant CAs, which, however, involves more complex scoring such ...

Novel Antibiofilm Approach Using Bioactive Glasses F18 and 45S5 Against Clinical Isolates of Staphylococcus aureus in Chronic Rhinosinusitis

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT S. aureus plays a central role in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), contributing to acute exacerbations and persistent infections through biofilm formation. With rising antibiotic resistance, bioactive glasses such as F18 and 45S5 have emerged as potential alternative antimicrobial agents. To evaluate the antimicrobial effects of F18 and 45S5 on S.

Short communication: Biofilm production characterization of mecA and mecC methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from bovine milk in Great Britain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Staphylococcus aureus is an important cause of contagious intramammary infection in dairy cattle and the ability to produce biofilm is considered to be an important virulence property in the pathogenesis of mastitis.

Decision‐Making in Emergency Foster Care: An Insider Perspective on Current Practices and Possibilities for Change

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, Volume 31, Issue 2, Page 770-781, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Emergency foster care is a protection measure for children who are in a situation of abuse and/or neglect—or at imminent risk of it—that requires an assessment to make a decision. In Catalonia (Spain), emergency foster care placements are designed for children aged 0–6 and can last up to a maximum of 6 months.

Virulence genes distributed among Staphylococcus aureus causing wound infections and their correlation to antibiotic resistance

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background Staphylococcus aureus causes many human infections, including wound infections, and its pathogenicity is mainly influenced by several virulence factors. Aim This study aimed to detect virulence genes (hla, sea, icaA, and fnbA) in S.

Amyloid‐related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) in anti‐amyloid therapies for Alzheimer's disease: An update from the Alzheimer's Association ARIA workgroup

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract In 2011, a workgroup of the Alzheimer's Association Research Roundtable introduced recommendations for detecting and monitoring amyloid‐related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) in Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical trials. Since then, anti‐amyloid immunotherapies have received regulatory approval for AD treatment and are beginning to enter clinical

Synergistic Inhibitory Effect and Mechanism of Action of Cinnamaldehyde‐Carvacrol Nanoemulsion on the Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli Mixed Biofilms Formation

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
The study prepared Cinnamaldehyde‐Carvacrol nanoemulsions (CA/CV NEs) through high‐energy emulsification. In a mouse infection model, CA/CV NEs exhibited a synergistic inhibitory effect on the formation of Staphylococcus aureus–Escherichia coli mixed biofilms, reducing PIA, LuxS/AI‐2, adhesion, athletic ability, and extracellular protein.
