Helicobacter pylori is a major human pathogen for which increasing antibiotic resistance
constitutes a serious threat to human health. Molecular mechanisms underlying this …

Despite decades of effort, Helicobacter pylori infections remain difficult to treat. Over half of
the world's population is infected by H. pylori, which is a major cause of duodenal and …

An understanding of the transport and survival of microbial pathogens (pathogens hereafter)
in agricultural settings is needed to assess the risk of pathogen contamination to water and …

Biofilms are ubiquitous in drinking water systems, either in the form of thin and patchy
colonies or as surface-covering multiple layers. In biofilters they are used for the elimination …

Background Helicobacter pylori forms biofilms on glass surfaces at the air-liquid interface in
in vitro batch cultures; however, biofilms of H. pylori have not been well characterized. In the …

As all bacteria studied to date, the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori has an alternate
lifestyle as a biofilm. H. pylori forms biofilms on glass surfaces at the air-liquid interface in …

The impact of biofilms present in water distribution systems on the microbial quality of
potable water is reported in this review. The issues covered include the composition of …

Helicobacter pylori persistence is associated with its capacity to develop biofilms as a
response to changing environmental conditions and stress. Extracellular DNA (eDNA) is a …

The occurrence of viable but non-culturable (VBNC) bacteria in drinking water may result in
significant underestimation of viable cell counts detected by culture-based method, thus …

Helicobacter pylori is a gastric pathogen that infects nearly half of the global population and
is recognized as a group 1 carcinogen by the Word Health Organization. The global rise in …
