Bacterial Biofilm: Dispersal and Inhibition Strategies
Bacterial biofilms are communities of microorganisms residing within a polysaccharide matrix. Dental plaque, slimy coating in tanks, and algal mats on bodies of water are examples of biofilms. It is well accepted that biofilms play important role in bacterial persistence and antibiotic resistance in chronic infections. It is acknowledged that the majority of microbial cells on earth are living ...
متن کاملbacterial biofilm and its inhibition mechanisms relying on anti-biofilm properties of plant compounds
abstract biofilm is a complex community of microorganisms residing within a polysaccharide and/or protein matrix. biofilm can be produced by microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. both gram positive and gram negative bacteria have this ability. resistance of biofilm to antimicrobial agents is becoming a global issue. bacterial biofilms are important in various aspects such as chronic human ...
متن کاملCovalent Lectin Inhibition and Application in Bacterial Biofilm Imaging
Biofilm formation by pathogenic bacteria is a hallmark of chronic infections. In many cases, lectins play key roles in establishing biofilms. The pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa often exhibiting various drug resistances employs its lectins LecA and LecB as virulence factors and biofilm building blocks. Therefore, inhibition of the function of these proteins is thought to have potential in devel...
متن کاملBacterial Biofilm Control by Perturbation of Bacterial Signaling Processes
The development of effective strategies to combat biofilm infections by means of either mechanical or chemical approaches could dramatically change today's treatment procedures for the benefit of thousands of patients. Remarkably, considering the increased focus on biofilms in general, there has still not been invented and/or developed any simple, efficient and reliable methods with which to "c...
متن کاملReactive Oxygen Species Mediated Bacterial Biofilm Inhibition via Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles and Their Statistical Determination
The formation of bacterial biofilm is a major challenge in clinical applications. The main aim of this study is to describe the synthesis, characterization and biocidal potential of zinc oxide nanoparticles (NPs) against bacterial strain Pseudomonas aeruginosa. These nanoparticles were synthesized via soft chemical solution process in a very short time and their structural properties have been ...
