Interspecies interactions are essential for the persistence and development of any kind of
complex community, and microbial biofilms are no exception. Multispecies biofilms are …

The potential impact of biofilm on healing in acute and chronic wounds is one of the most
controversial current issues in wound care. A significant amount of laboratory-based …

Cold atmospheric-pressure plasma (CAP) is a relatively new method being investigated for
antimicrobial activity. However, the exact mode of action is still being explored. Here we …

The blue wavelengths within the visible light spectrum are intrinisically antimicrobial and can
photodynamically inactivate the cells of a wide spectrum of bacteria (Gram positive and …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a well-known pathogenic bacterium that forms biofilms and
produces virulence factors, thus leading to major problems in many fields, such as clinical …

Abstract Background. Biofilms affect> 80% bacterial infections in human and are usually
difficult to eradicate because of their inherent drug resistance. Methods. We investigated the …

ABSTRACT P128 is an antistaphylococcal protein, comprising a cell wall-degrading
enzymatic region and a Staphylococcus-specific binding region, which possesses specific …

Bacterial biofilms are usually assumed to originate from individual cells deposited on a
surface. However, many biofilm-forming bacteria tend to aggregate in the planktonic phase …

Chronic wounds are wounds which are detained in one or more phases of normal wound
healing. It is estimated that 1–2% of the population of developed countries will experience a …

Bacteria reside within biofilms at the infection site, making them extremely difficult to
eradicate with conventional wound care products. Bacteria use quorum sensing (QS) …
