In the present review, we describe and compare the molecular mechanisms that are
involved in the regulation of biofilm formation by P seudomonas putida, P seudomonas …

Biofilms provide an ecological advantage against many environmental stressors, such as pH
and temperature, making it the most common life‐cycle stage for many bacteria. These …

Quorum sensing inhibitory (QSI) activity of common South Indian spices and vegetables
were evaluated using the bacterial model Chromobacterium violaceum. Among the 22 …

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a biofilm-producing seafood-borne pathogen that causes
gastrointestinal disease in humans. Therefore, our study aimed to assess the elimination …

Bacterial quorum sensing (QS) is a density dependent communication system that regulates
the expression of certain genes including production of virulence factors in many pathogens …

Development of non-antibiotic alternatives to treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant
(MDR) microbes represents one of the top priorities in healthcare and community settings …

BACKGROUND: Emergence of antibiotic resistance among bacterial pathogens often leads
to the failure of existing antibiotics to treat bacterial infections; thus, there is a need to seek …

ABSTRACT The Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) is a group of genetically related
environmental bacteria that can cause chronic opportunistic infections in patients with cystic …

The presence of persister cells has been proposed as a factor in biofilm resilience. In the
present study we investigated whether persister cells are present in Burkholderia cepacia …

The second book in a four-part series, this text is an in-depth review of state-of-the-art
molecular detection and identification methods for human bacterial pathogens. Written by …
