Data presented in this useful report suggest a potentially new model for chemotaxis regulation in the gram-negative bacterium P. putida. Data supporting interactions between CheA and the ...

This effect mimics what happens when bacteria are exposed to powerful β-lactam antibiotics. Bacteria often form biofilms – sticky layers that protect them from antibiotics. Saccharin prevents bacteria ...

Understanding the interplay between nanoparticles, biomaterials and drug molecules in biological environments is important but studying these interactions in complex systems such as biofilms is ...

Bertolo and her research team at the São Carlos Institute of Chemistry of the University of São Paulo created an edible “biofilm” obtained from agricultural waste to extend the shelf-life of ...

Saccharin, the artificial sweetener used in diet foods like yogurts and sugar-free drinks, can kill multidrug-resistant bacteria—including one of the world's most dangerous pathogens ...

AMR is not only related to the emergence of resistant bacterial strains but also significantly due to the formation of biofilm barriers, where bacteria adhere to surfaces and secrete substances.

You may want to think twice before ordering extra ice at a restaurant. Quite a few restaurant inspections mention a 'pink substance' or 'black buildup' on ice machines. Mold, slime or grime ...

This is referred to as a biofilm. A biofilm forms when bacteria cling to a surface and combine to form an extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) matrix, which has a glue-like consistency. The ...
