The aim of this research was to explore the interaction between ultrasound-activated
microbubbles (MBs) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms, specifically the effects of MB …

This study evaluated the effect of combining antibiotics with ultrasound and microbubbles
(USMB) toward the eradication of biofilms. Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 biofilms were …

Due to an increase in underlying predisposing factors, chronic wounds have become an
increasing burden on healthcare systems worldwide. Chronic infections often contain biofilm …

Biofilms are difficult to eradicate due to their resistance to antibiotics and host immune cells.
Ultrasound microbubbles have emerged as a new treatment modality with the underlying …

Bacterial biofilms are a major and ongoing concern for public health, featuring both inherited
genetic resistance traits and a conferred innate tolerance to traditional antibiotic therapies …

Bacteria sequestered in a biofilm on medical implants appear to be much more recalcitrant
toward antibiotic therapy than planktonic forms of the same bacteria. However, in vitro …

It is widely recognized that the bacteria sequestered in a biofilm on a medical implant are
much more resistant to antibiotics than their planktonic counterparts. Recent studies have …

Biofilm elimination is often necessary during antimicrobial therapy or industrial medical
manufacturing decontamination. In this context, ultrasound treatment has been frequently …

The effect of simultaneous ultrasonic treatment on the efficacy of gentamicin against
planktonic and established biofilm cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was investigated …

Device-associated infection is becoming a major threat to patient health associated with the
extensive use of indwelling medical devices. Bacterial biofilms formed on the surfaces of …
