A biofilm is a collection of microorganisms organized in a matrix of extracellular polymeric
material. Biofilms consist of microbial cells that attach to both surfaces and each other …

Suspended bacterial aggregates play a central role in ocean biogeochemistry, industrial
processes and probably many clinical infections–yet the factors that trigger aggregation …

Bacillary dysentery caused by Shigella spp. is a significant concern for human health. Small
non-coding RNA (sRNA) plays a crucial role in regulating antibiotic resistance and virulence …

A complex structure known as a biofilm is formed when a variety of bacterial colonies or a
single type of cell in a group sticks to a surface. The extracellular polymeric compounds that …

Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance Paulownia tomentosa Steud.(P. tomentosa) is a
medium-sized tree traditionally used in Chinese folk medicine for the treatment of infectious …

Effective treatment of infection in chronic wounds is critical to improve patient outcomes and
prevent severe complications, including systemic infections, increased morbidity, and …

The ability of bacteria to interact with their environment is crucial to form aggregates and
biofilms, and develop a collective stress resistance behavior. Despite its environmental and …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) is an opportunistic pathogen frequently isolated from
cutaneous chronic wounds. How PA, in the presence of oxidative stress (OS), colonizes …

It is increasingly recognized that interspecies interactions may modulate the pathogenicity of
Pseudomonas aeruginosa during chronic lung infections. Nevertheless, while the interaction …

Innate immunity has considerable specificity and can discriminate between individual
species of microbes. In this regard, pathogens are “seen” as dangerous to the host and elicit …
