Biofilm Formation and β-lactamase Enzymes: A Synergism Activity in Acinetobacter baumannii Isolated from Wound Infection
Background and Objective: Biofilm formation plays a crucial role in wound infections and increases the bacteria resistance to treatment. The present study investigated the relationship between the biofilm formation, ESBL, AmpC, and KPC enzymes in Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from the wound specimens. Materials and Methods: Eighty- nine A. baumannii isolates were collected from wound specim...
متن کاملZnO Nanoparticles Affect Bacillus subtilis Cell Growth and Biofilm Formation
Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are an important antimicrobial additive in many industrial applications. However, mass-produced ZnO NPs are ultimately disposed of in the environment, which can threaten soil-dwelling microorganisms that play important roles in biodegradation, nutrient recycling, plant protection, and ecological balance. This study sought to understand how ZnO NPs affect Bacil...
متن کاملImmobilized enzymes: crystals or carriers?
The advantages of immobilized over soluble enzymes arise from their enhanced stability and ease of separation from the reaction media, leading to significant savings in enzyme consumption. Immobilization methods range from binding to prefabricated carrier materials to packaging in enzyme crystals or powders. During their use, mass-transfer effects can produce substrate or pH gradients, which re...
متن کاملAnalytical applications of immobilized enzymes.
Several clinical laboratory methods using enzymes as reagents now may utilize immobilized enzymes. These are enzymes attached to solid surfaces by adsorption, covalent binding, cross linking or similar means. Immobilized enzymes are widely used presently in convenient tests for urine glucose and galactose or blood glucose and urea, and in serum glucose or urea determinations by automated method...
