Viable compositional analysis of an eleven species oral polymicrobial biofilm [PDF]
Purpose: Polymicrobial biofilms are abundant in clinical disease, particularly within the oral cavity. Creating complex biofilm models that recapitulate the polymicrobiality of oral disease are important in the development of new chemotherapeutic agents.

Peptides as quorum sensing molecules : measurement techniques and obtained levels in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
The expression of certain bacterial genes is regulated in a cell-density dependent way, a phenomenon called quorum sensing. Both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria use this type of communication, though the signal molecules (auto-inducers) used by ...

Human platelet activation by Escherichia coli: roles for FcγRIIA and integrin αIIbβ3 [PDF]
Gram-negative Escherichia coli cause diseases such as sepsis and hemolytic uremic syndrome in which thrombotic disorders can be found. Direct platelet–bacterium interactions might contribute to some of these conditions; however, mechanisms of human ...

Anthocyanin-rich Extracts Affect Coaggregation Among Oral Bacteria [PDF]
Objective: Oral biofilms have been implicated in the etiology of several diseases, including periodontitis, dental caries and oral cancer. Coaggregation is critical for biofilm formation, and a potential treatment target to disrupt in the progression to ...
