The dramatic increase in drug resistant bacteria resistance to existing conventional
antibiotics poses a great challenge to the effective treatment of infectious diseases …

Recent advances in synthetic biology and materials science have given rise to a new form of
materials, namely engineered living materials (ELMs), which are composed of living matter …

Microorganisms produce and excrete a versatile array of metabolites with different physico-
chemical properties and biological activities. However, the ability of microorganisms to …

Biofilms consist of microbial communities embedded in a 3D extracellular matrix. The matrix
is composed of a complex array of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) that contribute …

Abstract The Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria are attributable to matrix-enclosed
aggregates known as biofilms. Biofilms are root cause of industrial biofouling and …

Bacterial biofilm‐associated infections (BAIs) are the leading cause of prosthetic implant
failure. The dense biofilm structure prevents antibiotic penetration, while the highly acidic …

Biofilm-mediated bioremediation is an attractive approach for the elimination of
environmental pollutants, because of its wide adaptability, biomass, and excellent capacity …

Being a multidrug-resistant and an invasive pathogen, Acinetobacter baumannii is one of
the major causes of nosocomial infections in the current healthcare system. It has been …

Background The human gut hosts complex microbial communities, which are linked to
health and disease. The gut microbiota is continuously reshaped by multiple environmental …

Biofiltration is an established technology for the removal of volatile organic compounds
(VOCs) from waste gas streams due to its cost-effectiveness, process safety, and …
