Subinhibitory Concentrations of Allicin Decrease Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) Biofilm Formation, Adhesion Ability, and Swimming Motility
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) biofilm formation enables the organism to avoid the host immune system, resist antibiotics, and provide a reservoir for persistent infection. Once the biofilm is established, eradication of the infection becomes difficult. Therefore, strategies against UPEC biofilm are urgently required. In this study, we investigated the effect of allicin, isolated from ga...
متن کاملInhibitory effect of zinc oxide nanoparticles on pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation
Objective(s): Bacterial biofilm formation causes many persistent and chronic infections. The matrix protects biofilm bacteria from exposure to innate immune defenses and antibiotic treatments. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biofilm formation of clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) on biofilm. Materials and Methods: Aft...
متن کاملEffect of Subinhibitory concentrations of imipenem and piperacillin on transcriptional expression of algD and lasB genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Sub Minimal Inhibitory concentrations (sub-MIC) of antibiotics, although not able to kill bacteria, can be effect on their physico- chemical characteristics and functions. This study aimed to investigate the effect of sub-MIC of imipenem and piperacillin on the transcriptional expression of virulence related genes algD and lasB in Pseudomonas auroginosa. Five clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa ...
متن کاملIron and Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation.
Iron serves as a signal in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm development. We examined the influence of mutations in known and putative iron acquisition-signaling genes on biofilm morphology. In iron-sufficient medium, mutants that cannot obtain iron through the high-affinity pyoverdine iron acquisition system form thin biofilms similar to those formed by the parent under low iron conditions. If an...
متن کاملInfluence of quorum sensing and iron on twitching motility and biofilm formation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Reducing iron (Fe) levels in a defined minimal medium reduced the growth yields of planktonic and biofilm Pseudomonas aeruginosa, though biofilm biomass was affected to the greatest extent and at FeCl3 concentrations where planktonic cell growth was not compromised. Highlighting this apparently greater need for Fe, biofilm growth yields were markedly reduced in a mutant unable to produce pyover...
