Combating biofilms - PubMed - Biofilms are complex microbial communities consisting of microcolonies embedded in a matrix of self-produced polymer substances. Biofilm cells show much greater resistance to environmental challenges including antimicrobial agents than their free-living counterparts. The biofilm mode of life is beli …
Current and Recent Advanced Strategies for Combating Biofilms - Biofilms are matrix‐enclosed microbial aggregates that adhere to a biological or nonbiological surface. Biofilm formation is a significant problem in the medical, food, and marine industries and can ...
Strategies for combating bacterial biofilm infections - Formation of biofilm is a survival strategy for bacteria and fungi to adapt to their living environment, especially in the hostile environment. Under the protection of biofilm, microbial cells in biofilm become tolerant and resistant to antibiotics and ...
Strategies for combating bacterial biofilms: A focus on anti-biofilm agents and their mechanisms of action - (2018). Strategies for combating bacterial biofilms: A focus on anti-biofilm agents and their mechanisms of action. Virulence: Vol. 9, No. 1, pp. 522-554.
Combating Biofilm and Quorum Sensing: A New Strategy to Fight Infections | IntechOpen - Biofilms are structured aggregates of bacterial cells that are embedded in self-produced extracellular polymeric substances. Various pathogens initiate a disease process by creating organized biofilms that enhance their ability to adhere, replicate to accumulate, and express their virulence potential. Quorum sensing, which refers to the bacterial cell-to-cell communication resulting from production and response to N-acyl homoserine lactone signal molecules, also plays an important role in virulence and biofilm formation. Attenuation of microorganisms’ virulence such that they fail to adapt to the hosts’ environment could be a new strategic fight against pathogens. Thus, agents or products that possess anti-biofilm formation and/or anti-quorum sensing activities could go a long way to manage microbial infections. The incidence of microbial resistance can be reduced by the use of anti-biofilm formation and anti-quorum sensing agents.
Enzyme Mimicry for Combating Bacteria and Biofilms - ConspectusBacterial infection continues to be a growing global health problem with the most widely accepted treatment paradigms restricted to antibiotics. However, antibiotics overuse and misuse have triggered increased multidrug resistance, frustrating the therapeutic outcomes and leading to higher mortalities. Even worse, the tendency of bacteria to form biofilms on living and nonliving surfaces further increases the difficulty in confronting bacteria because the extracellular matrix can act as a robust barrier to prevent the penetration of antibiotics and resist environmental stress. As a result, the inability to completely eliminate bacteria and biofilms often leads to persistent infection, implant failure, and device damage. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to develop alternative antimicrobial agents while avoiding the generation of bacterial resistance. Taking lessons from natural enzymes for destroying cellular structural integrity or interfering with metabolisms such as proliferation, quorum s
Combating biofilms and antibiotic resistance using synthetic biology - Antibiotics can even induce biofilm formation (5, 6). The development of antibiotic -resistant bacteria is also a growing medical problem. Antibiotic resistance genes ...
Advanced strategies for combating bacterial biofilms - Bacteria are the cause of evolution of several strategies to deal with problems and challenges existing under hostile environments. One of the significant survival strategies used by bacteria is a
Strategies for combating bacterial biofilms: A focus on anti-biofilm agents and their mechanisms of action - Biofilm refers to the complex, sessile communities of microbes found either attached to a surface or buried firmly in an extracellular matrix as aggregates. The biofilm matrix surrounding bacteria makes them tolerant to harsh conditions and resistant ...
