The ubiquity of plastic debris in marine environments raises the question, what impacts do plastics have on our microbiota? To investigate this, we applied bacterial 16S rRNA gene and fungal ITS2 region sequencing to identify changes microbial biofilm community compositions plastic, over time. We sampled virgin linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), nylon-6 (PA) glass after 2, 6 12 weeks cons...

Attachment disorder is a broad term intended to describe disorders of mood, behavior, and social relationships arising from a failure to form normal attachments to primary care giving figures in early childhood. Such a failure would result from unusual early experiences of neglect, abuse, abrupt separation from caregivers after about age 6 months but before about age 3 years, frequent change of...

BACKGROUND The adjunctive use of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors with scaling and root planing (SRP) promotes new attachment in patients with periodontal disease. This pilot study was designed to examine aspects of the biological response brought about by the MMP inhibitor low dose doxycycline (LDD) combined with access flap surgery (AFS) on the modulation of periodontal wound repair ...

A method for studying bacteria that are attached to carcass surfaces would eliminate the need for exogenous sampling and would facilitate understanding the interaction of potential human food-borne pathogens with food animal tissue surfaces. We describe such a method in which we used a bioluminescent reporter strain of Escherichia coli O157:H7 that was constructed by transformation with plasmid...

Plant-parasitic nematodes are a major constraint on agricultural production. They significantly impede crop yield. To complete their parasitism, they need to locate, disguise, and interact with plant signals exuded in the rhizosphere of host plant. A specific subset soil microbiome can attach surface manner. We hypothesized that plants recruit species microbes as helpers against attacking nemat...
