Microbial consortia are commonly observed in natural and synthetic systems, and these consortia frequently result in higher biomass production relative to monocultures. The focus here is on the impact of initial spatial localization and substrate diffusivity on the growth of a model microbial consortium consisting of a producer strain that consumes glucose and produces acetate and a scavenger s...

Abstract. Khoo DH, Shivanand P, Taha H. 2022. Short Communication: Determination of crude oil degradation efficiency biofilm producing bacteria isolated from contaminated site. Biodiversitas 23: 4138-4143. Microbes have gained much attention for their application in the bioremediation petroleum areas, and are considered potential candidates this purpose. The aim study was to screen six degradin...

Abstract Urinary tract infections are second most important diseases worldwide due to the increased amount of antibiotic resistant microbes. Among Gram negative bacteria, P. mirabilis is dominant biofilm producer in urinary next E. coli. Biofilm a process that produced self-matrix more virulence pathogens on colloidal surfaces. Based above fact, this study was concentrated inhibit formation by ...

The bacterium Bacillus subtilis frequently forms biofilms at the interface between the culture medium and the air. We present a mathematical model that couples a description of bacteria as individual discrete objects to the standard advection-diffusion equations for the environment. The model takes into account two different bacterial phenotypes. In the motile state, bacteria swim and perform a...

Foodborne pathogens are the main threat and cause of food poisoning. The majority infections have been related to biofilm formation foodborne in industry. Shewanella putrefaciens (KX355803, GRD 03), a Gram-negative pathogen isolated from mackerel fish, was identified recognized as spoilage bacterium strong producer. adhesion or attachment ability determined on steel, plastic, glass, PVC wood. N...

Biofilm represents a way of life that allows greater survival of microorganisms in hostile habitats. Campylobacter jejuni is able to form biofilms in vitro and on surfaces at several points in the poultry production chain. Genetic determinants related to their formation are expressed differently between strains and external conditions are decisive in this respect. Our approach combines phylogen...

Biofilm formation is a major cause of reduced paper quality and increased down time during paper manufacturing. This study uses Illumina next-generation sequencing to identify the microbial populations causing quality issues due to their presence in biofilms and slimes. The paper defects investigated contained traces of the films and/or slime of mainly two genera, Tepidimonas and Chryseobacteri...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the clonal epidemiology of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP) isolates from dogs in Norway and to evaluate the antimicrobial resistance patterns and determine the biofilm-forming abilities of the isolates. METHODS All MRSP index isolates from each MRSP-positive dog detected in Norway until June 2011 were included (n...

The aim of the study was to isolate Salmonella from fresh cabbage and spinach vegetables, determine antimicrobial resistance and biofilm formation of the isolates. Spinach and cabbage farm vegetables were found to harbour Salmonella. A total of eighty-two Salmonella isolates were recovered from both vegetables and subjected to antimicrobial reactions. Salmonella isolate showed sensitivity again...

Background and Aims: Staphylococcus aureus is one of the important pathogens around the world. The present investigation was carried out to study the distribution of Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome Mec (SCCmec) types and antibiotic resistance properties in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from Isfahan hospitals. Materials and Methods: A total of 250 clinical specimens ...
