Mining Oral Probiotics Based on Their Pathogen Inhibition and Deodorization Roles

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
A promising oral probiotic strain Streptococcus salivarius MY‐6 stood out from 41 candidate lactic acid bacteria through the high‐throughput strategy based on its inhibitions of the growth and biofilm formation of the main oral pathogens Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis, as well as its elimination of oral malodor‐associated ...

High-level tolerance to triclosan may play a role in Pseudomonas aeruginosa antibiotic resistance in immunocompromised hosts: evidence from outbreak investigation

BMC Research Notes, 2012
Background and methods Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major infectious threat to immunocompromised patients. We recently reported a fatal epidemic of multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa in an onchoematology unit, linked to massive contamination of a triclosan-

Mechanical properties of Triclosan sutures [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 2017
ABSTRACTTo avoid infections and wound healing disorders, Triclosan coated sutures have been invented. Little is known of these sutures regarding their tensile properties. Three different Triclosan coated sutures (Vicryl 1 plus, PDS 0 plus, Monocryl 3‐0 plus) were tested at several time points over 42 days regarding load to failure, strain, and ...

Advancing Therapies for Mycobacterial Diseases: From Small Molecules to Host‐Directed Strategies

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global burden of multidrug‐resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) and the rising incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections highlight the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Current treatments are prolonged, toxic, and increasingly compromised by resistance and limited diagnostic capacity.

Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables the rational design of structured antimicrobial platforms across multiple length scales, from nanofibrous scaffolds and droplet microreactors to 3D and 4D printed constructs. By engineering confinement, interfacial chemistry, and stimuli‐responsive release, these systems exert localized action through complementary ...
