Bacteriocins: Novel Solutions to Age Old Spore-Related Problems? [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides produced by bacteria, which have the ability to kill or inhibit other bacteria. Many bacteriocins are produced by food grade lactic acid bacteria (LAB).

The oncolytic activity of Clostridium novyi nontoxic spores in breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yesBioImpacts, 2022
Introduction: Hypoxia context is highly specific for tumors and represents a unique niche which is not found elsewhere in the body. Clostridium novyi is an obligate anaerobic bacterium. It has a potential to treat tumors.

RocTest: A standardized method to assess the performance of root organ cultures in the propagation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Over the past three decades, root organ cultures (ROCs) have been the gold standard method for studying arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) under in vitro conditions, and ROCs derived from various plant species have been used as hosts for AM monoxenic ...

Genomic versus Plasmid-Borne Expression of Germinant Receptor Proteins in Bacillus cereus Strain 14579

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Germinant receptors (GRs) are proteins in the spore-forming bacteria of Bacillus species that are crucial in triggering spore germination by sensing nutrients in the spores’ environment.

Induced Membrane Bone Grafting Technique for Treatment of Large Postinfectious Acetabular Bone Defects

open access: yesArthroplasty Today, 2020
Management of large acetabular bone defects is challenging. The Masquelet technique has successfully reconstructed segmental defects in long bones arising from trauma, tumors, or infection but not been described for large acetabular defects. We present 3

Strain-Dependent Cheese Spoilage Potential of Clostridium tyrobutyricum

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Clostridium tyrobutyricum, a Gram-positive, anaerobic, spore-forming bacterium, is considered as one of the main causative agents for spoilage of hard and semihard cheeses. Growth of C.

Sporulation: A response to starvation in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2022
The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe employs two main strategies to adapt to the environment and survive when starved for nutrients. The strategies employ sporulation via sexual differentiation and extension of the chronological lifespan.

The Bactericidal Activity and Spore Inhibition Effect of Manuka Honey against Clostridioides Difficile

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
Clostridioides difficile colitis overgrowth occurs when the normal gut microbiome becomes disrupted, often due to antibiotics. Effective treatment remains elusive, due partly to the persistence of its spores in the gut.

The fate of the missing spores [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It is well-known that many species with small diaspores can disperse far during extended temporal scales (many years). However, studies on short temporal scales usually only cover short distances (in, e.g., bryophytes up to 15 m).
