Determination of Polyhexamethylene Biguanide Utilizing a Glucose Oxidase Enzymatic Reaction
Polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) is a cationic disinfectant widely used for personal-care products and for sanitizers in swimming pools. This paper describes a promotion effect of PHMB on a glucose oxidase (GOx) enzymatic reaction with ferricyanide ion and its analytical application. The promotion effect arose from a polyion complex formation between

Altered competitive fitness, antimicrobial susceptibility, and cellular morphology in a triclosan-induced small-colony variant of staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus can produce small-colony variants (SCVs) that express various phenotypes. While their significance is unclear, SCV propagation may be influenced by relative fitness, antimicrobial susceptibility, and the underlying mechanism.

BIOFILM AND OUR CLINICAL EXPERIENCE [PDF]
Bakterije koje su organizirane u biofilmu nisu osjetljive na uobičajeno liječenje oblogama ili antibioticima. Najuspješnije uklanjamo njihove kolonije kirurškim debridmanom, ali nemamo takve mogućnosti na svakom mjestu.
