Staphylococcus aureus is a microorganism frequently associated with implant-related
infections, owing to its ability to produce biofilms. These infections are difficult to treat …

Objectives Chronic wound infections may delay the healing process and are responsible for
a significant burden on healthcare systems. Since inappropriate management may …

Our knowledge about the fundamental aspects of biofilm biology, including the mechanisms
behind the reduced antimicrobial susceptibility of biofilms, has increased drastically over the …

The efficacy of antibiotic treatments targeting polymicrobial communities is not well predicted
by conventional in vitro susceptibility testing based on determining minimum inhibitory …

Characterizing the response of microbial communities to a range of antibiotic concentrations
is one of the strategies used to understand the impact of antibiotic resistance. Many studies …

Carried in the nasal passages by up to 30% of humans, Staphylococcus aureus is
recognized to be a successful opportunistic pathogen. It is a frequent cause of infections of …

The uses of implantable medical devices are safer and more common since sterilization
methods and techniques were established a century ago; however, device-associated …

Proteases are important enzymes that are engaged in a variety of essential physiological
functions and have a significant possible use in industrial applications. In this work, we …

Early childhood caries, a virulent-form of dental caries, is painful, difficult, and costly to treat
that has been associated with high levels of Streptococcus mutans (Sm) and Candida …

Objectives: A major problem for wound healing is contamination with bacteria, often
resulting in biofilm formation and wound infection, which, in turn, needs immediate …
