The Effect of Biosurfactant of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae on Biofilms Produced by Staphylococcus Aureus, Epidermidis and Saprophyticus: A Laboratory Study

Background and Objectives: Biosurfactants are amphiphilic molecules produced by microorganisms that due to  surfactant activity, have several applications in different industries such as cleaning, emulsification, foaming and dispersion. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of biosurfactant extracted from saccharomycess cerevisiae on biofilm formation of staphylococcus aureus (PTC...

Characterization of nutrient-induced dispersion in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 biofilm.

The processes associated with early events in biofilm formation have become a major research focus over the past several years. Events associated with dispersion of cells from late stage biofilms have, however, received little attention. We demonstrate here that dispersal of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 from biofilms is inducible by a sudden increase in carbon substrate availability. Most effici...

In vitro activity of Quercus brantii extracts against biofilm- producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Background: Biofilm formation by Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a serious concern in treatment of diseases and medical industries. Natural products that originate in plants can influence microbial biofilm formation. The effect of ethyl acetate, methanol and water- methanol extracts of Quercus brantii on biofilm formation and biofilm disruption of P. aeruginosa were investigated in this study. Methods...

Antimicrobial Effect of Combined Extract of Three Plants Camellia Sinensis, Teucrium Polium and Piper Nigrum on Antibiotic Resistant Pathogenic Bacteria

Background and Aims: Microbial biofilms are responsible for 65% of human infections and antibiotic resistance. Therefore, finding appropriate ways to prevent infection and biofilm formation is essential. Medicinal plants are one of the suitable candidates to inhibit the antibiotics resistance particularly in biofilm forms. In this study, antimicrobial effects of T.C.P combined extracts (methano...

Synthesis of silver nanoparticles and its synergistic effects in combination with imipenem and two biocides against biofilm producing Acinetobacter baumannii

Objectives:Biofilms are communities of bacteria attached to surfaces through an external polymeric substances matrix. In the meantime, Acinetobacterbaumannii is the predominant species related to nosocomial infections. In the present study, the effect of silver nanoparticles alone and in combination with biocides and imipenem against planktonic and biofilms of A. baumannii was assessed.  Materi...
