Insights Into the Antibiofilm Activity of Carbon Quantum Dots Against a Panel of Different Microorganisms: A Review

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Carbon quantum dots (CDs) have emerged as versatile nanoplatforms for combating biofilm‐associated infections through multiple mechanisms, including EPS disruption, membrane damage, ROS generation, and quorum sensing inhibition. This review highlights how CD physicochemical properties and surface engineering strategies influence antibiofilm activity ...

Phenotypic expression of the gene‐for‐gene interaction in plant pathogenic bacteria: An implication for resistance to bacterial diseases by plants

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Plant pathogenic bacteria cause massive losses in agriculture and damage to natural plant habitats. Bacterial pathogens not only reduce crop production, but they also reduce crop quality by releasing toxins into the environment. Pathogenic bacteria that invade plant tissues must overcome the plant's defense mechanisms. Plants possess an innate

A new combination in Strophopappus (Asteraceae, Vernonieae, Lepidaploinae)

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
Revisions of herbarium collections reveal a new combination in Strophopappus (Asteraceae, Vernonieae, Lepidaploinae). Strophopappus comprises nine species occurring in South America, eight of which are endemic to Brazil. Currently, Vernonia riedeliana is treated as a synonym of Strophopappus bicolor.

Functional Analysis of the Chaperone-Usher Fimbrial Gene Clusters of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
The human-specific pathogen Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi causes typhoid, a major public health issue in developing countries. Several aspects of its pathogenesis are still poorly understood. S.

Binding characteristics ofEscherichia colitype 1 fimbriae in the human kidney [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1987
Binding of the Escherichia coli type 1 fimbriae to frozen sections of human kidney was examined by indirect immunofluorescence. The purified fimbriae bound specifically to the luminal and cytoplasmic aspects of proximal tubules and to the connective tissue layer of veins and arteries. Distal tubules, collecting ducts, glomeruli and vascular endothelium

Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, Volume 26, Issue 9, September 2026.
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 ...

The role of type 1 and curli fimbriae of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli in adherence to abiotic surfaces

open access: yes, 2002
Biofilm formation on abiotic surfaces may provide a source of microbial contamination and may also enhance microbial environmental survival. The role of fimbrial expression by Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in biofilm formation is poorly ...

Identification of Potential Vaccine Strains of Escherichia coli Isolates From Diarrhoeic Calves

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study aimed to identify vaccine candidate Escherichia coli strains isolated from diarrheic calves. Faecal samples collected from 500 calves were analysed, and E. coli strains were isolated and characterized phenotypically and genotypically. Antibiotic resistance profiles, virulence‐associated genes and MLVA genotyping were used to select 20 ...
