Predatory bacteria have been increasingly known for their ubiquity in environments and
great functional potentials in controlling unwanted microorganisms. Fundamental …

Biofilms are a major concern within the food industry since they have the potential to reduce
productivity in situ (within the field), impact food stability and storage, and cause downstream …

Bdellovibrio and like organisms (BALOs) are a unique bacterial group that live by predating
on other bacteria, consuming them from within to grow and replicate before the progeny …

Aeromonas hydrophila is an important zoonotic pathogen responsible for septicemia,
diarrhea and gastroenteritis, and has attracted considerable attention. The EnvZ/OmpR two …

This study describes a novel one-pot fermentative process to mass-produce and cultivate
Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus HD100 that reduces the complexity and time associated with …

While diverse antibacterials are available in nature, each possesses their own strengths and
limitations. One such antibacterial is colicins, proteinaceous toxins that are produced by …

With the growing threat of antibiotic resistance, researchers around the globe are seeking
alternatives to stem bacterial pathogenesis. One such alternative is bacteriocins, proteins …

In a survey of the International Space Station (ISS), the most common pathogenic bacterium
identified in samples from the air, water and surfaces was Staphylococcus aureus. While …

ABSTRACT A method to rapidly quantify predatory bacterial cell populations using resazurin
reduction to resorufin and its resulting fluorescence kinetics (dF/dt) are described. The …

With increasing levels of antimicrobial resistance impacting both human and animal health,
novel means of treating resistant infections are urgently needed. Bacteriophages and …
