Invasive Staphylococcus aureus infections are common, causing high mortality,
compounded by the propensity of the bacterium to develop drug resistance. S. aureus is an …

The biofilm matrix can be considered to be a shared space for the encased microbial cells,
comprising a wide variety of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), such as …

The coagulase-negative bacterium Staphylococcus epidermidis is a member of the human
skin microbiota. S. epidermidis is not merely a passive resident on skin but actively primes …

Most bacteria attach to biotic or abiotic surfaces and are embedded in a complex matrix
which is known as biofilm. Biofilm formation is especially worrisome in clinical settings as it …

Pneumonia and its sequelae, acute lung injury, present unique challenges for pulmonary
and critical care healthcare professionals, and these challenges have recently garnered …

Bacterial biofilm‐related infectious diseases severely influence human health. Under typical
situations, pathogens can colonize inert or biological surfaces and form biofilms. Biofilms are …

Ultrasound (US)‐mediated sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has the advantages of non‐
invasiveness and deep tissue penetration. Nanosystems are prominently used in …

Bacteria can form biofilms in natural and clinical environments on both biotic and abiotic
surfaces. The bacterial aggregates embedded in biofilms are formed by their own produced …

Background Bacterial biofilms are aggregation or collection of different bacterial cells which
are covered by self-produced extracellular matrix and are attached to a substratum …

Bacterial biofilms are complex microbial communities encased in extracellular polymeric
substances. Their formation is a multi-step process. Biofilms are a significant problem in …
