Antiseptic Agents for Chronic Wounds: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2022
In many parts of the world, antiseptic agents remain non-indicated in chronic wound care. In the current context of bacterial resistance to antibiotics and the development of new-generation antiseptic agents, wound antisepsis represents an asset for the ...

Biofilms in Diabetic Foot Ulcers: Significance and Clinical Relevance

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Foot infections are the main disabling complication in patients with diabetes mellitus. These infections can lead to lower-limb amputation, increasing mortality and decreasing the quality of life. Biofilm formation is an important pathophysiology step in

Bacterial Interactions in the Context of Chronic Wound Biofilm: A Review

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Chronic wounds, defined by their resistance to care after four weeks, are a major concern, affecting millions of patients every year. They can be divided into three types of lesions: diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), pressure ulcers (PU), and venous/arterial ...

Novel cyclic di-GMP effectors of the YajQ protein family control bacterial virulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bis-(3',5') cyclic di-guanylate (cyclic di-GMP) is a key bacterial second messenger that is implicated in the regulation of many critical processes that include motility, biofilm formation and virulence. Cyclic di-GMP influences diverse functions through

Putative determinants of virulence in Melissococcus plutonius, the bacterial agent causing European foulbrood in honeybees [Elektronisk resurs] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Melissococcus plutonius is a bacterial pathogen that causes epidemic outbreaks of European foulbrood (EFB) in honey bee populations. The pathogenicity of a bacterium depends on its virulence, and understanding the mechanisms influencing virulence may ...

Within-Host Dynamics of Multi-Species Infections:Facilitation, Competition and Virulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Host individuals are often infected with more than one parasite species (parasites defined broadly, to include viruses and bacteria). Yet, research in infection biology is dominated by studies on single-parasite infections.

Synergistic Effect of Propolis and Antibiotics on Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most common bacterial infections around the world. Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is among the main pathogens isolated in UTIs.

Molecular characterization of highly prevalent Escherichia coli and Escherichia marmotae resistant to extended-spectrum cephalosporins in European starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) in Tunisia

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
European starlings are widespread migratory birds that have already been described as carrying bacteria resistant to extended-spectrum cephalosporins (ESC-R). These birds are well known in Tunisia because they spend the wintertime in this country and are
