INTRODUCTION: Accurately assessing biofilm viability is essential for evaluating both biofilm formation and the efficacy of antibacterial treatments. Traditional SYTO9 and propidium iodide (PI) live/dead staining in biofilm viability assays often ace...
The phyto-synthesis of ternary CuO/ MnO/ZnO nanocomposite was achieved by the utilization of an eco-friendly, straightforward approach that involved the extract of Nigella sativa seeds. Our ternary nanocomposite appears to include equal amounts of Cu...
Biofilms are complex microbial communities critical in medical, industrial, and environmental contexts. Understanding their assembly, structure, genetic regulation, interspecies interactions, and environmental responses is key to developing effective...
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Alpinia japonica, a traditional herb utilized in Miao medicine in southwestern China, has been employed to alleviate symptoms such as stomachache, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, some of these symptoms may be associated ...
Polymicrobial biofilm infections, especially associated with medical devices such as peripheral venous catheters, are challenging in clinical settings for treatment and management. In this study, we examined the mixed biofilm formed by Candida glabra...
AIMS: C. albicans resistant strains have led to increasingly severe treatment challenges. Antimicrobial peptides with low resistance-inducing propensity for pathogens have been developed. A series of antimicrobial peptides de novo designed through ma...
A biofilm is a group of bacteria that have self-produced a matrix and are grouped together in a dense population. By resisting the host's immune system's phagocytosis process and attacking with anti-microbial chemicals such as reactive oxygen and nit...
Recalcitrant biofilm infections pose a great challenge to human health. Micro- and nanorobots have been used to eliminate biofilm infections in hard-to-reach regions inside the body. However, applying antibiofilm robots under physiological conditions...
