H2O2 Kill Assays of Biofilm Bacteria
Bio-Protocol, 2013 Ubiquitous in nature and often surface associated, biofilms cause numerous chronic human infections. Biofilms are structured multicellular bacterial communities where cells are entrapped in a polymer matrix. Bacteria growing as biofilms are characterized

Pseudomonas mesophilica infections in humans [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1985 Reported here is the case of a patient with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the lung who had bacteremia involving Pseudomonas mesophilica. Of the common laboratory media tested at 35 degrees C, buffered charcoal yeast extract agar and nutrient agar provided the best growth; however, other media supported growth at lower temperatures.

Use of topical meropenem in management of hospital acquired Pseudomonas ocular infections
Journal of Clinical Ophthalmology and Research, 2014 We report a case series of four eyes of four patients where resistant strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in nosocomial ocular infections were treated with topical meropenem with a successful outcome.

Vaccination to Prevent Pseudomonas aeruginosa Bloodstream Infections
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 The bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) is ubiquitous in the environment and causes opportunistic infections in humans. Pa is increasingly becoming one of the most difficult to treat microorganisms due to its intrinsic and acquired resistance to ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

How phagocytic cells kill bacteria: Lessons from a professional killer
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.How phagocytic cells ingest and kill bacteria has been studied for more than a century, but many questions remain unanswered. The study of the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum brings new answers, and new questions. Professional phagocytic cells such as neutrophils and macrophages, as well as free‐living soil amoebae like Dictyostelium discoideum, employ
