The airborne transmission of disease relies on the ability of microbes to survive aerosol
transport and, subsequently, cause infection when interacting with a host. The length of time …

Catheter-associated urinary tract infections are the most common hospital-acquired
infection, for which Escherichia coli is the leading cause. This study investigated the efficacy …

N-Chlorotaurine (NCT) is a mild long-lived oxidant that can be applied to sensitive body
regions as an endogenous antiseptic. Enhancement of its microbicidal activity in the …

Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a bacterium able to induce serious pulmonary
infections in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. This bacterium is very often antibiotic resistant …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a cause of chronic respiratory tract infections in people with

Background A number of oral diseases, including periodontitis, derive from microbial
biofilms and are associated with increased antimicrobial resistance. Despite the widespread …

Background: The massive use of antibiotics has led to the selection of resistant bacterial
strains that are difficult to eradicate. Among these, Pseudomonas aeruginosa most …

The effective prescription of antibiotics for the bacterial biofilms present within the lungs of
individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) is limited by a poor correlation between antibiotic …

Lung infections with multiresistant pathogens are a major problem among patients suffering
from cystic fibrosis (CF). N-Chlorotaurine (NCT), a microbicidal active chlorine compound …
