Bacterial colonization in realistic environments: how mechanics impact biofilm formation in the wild and during infection

A variety of physical inputs acts onto bacteria in nature. However, these are most often ignored in the studies of their physiology. There is now increasing evidence indicating that bacteria respond to physical stimuli, including mechanical forces. Yet, qu ...

Implantation of Bacillus pseudomycoides Chromate Transporter Increases Chromate Tolerance in Bacillus subtilis

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Barbora Bártová, Imrich Barak, Zuzana Chromiková

Chromium of anthropogenic origin contaminates the environment worldwide. The toxicity of chromium, a group I human carcinogen, is greatest when it is in a hexavalent oxidation state, Cr(VI). Cr(VI) is actively transported into the cell, triggering oxidativ ...

Design and Evaluation of New Quinazolin-4(3H)-one Derived PqsR Antagonists as Quorum Sensing Quenchers in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Eduard Vico Oton

P. aeruginosa (PA) continues to pose a threat to global public health due to its high levels of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The ongoing AMR crisis has led to an alarming shortage of effective treatments for resistant microbes, and hence there is a pres ...

Adaptation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to constant sub-inhibitory concentrations of quaternary ammonium compounds

Urs von Gunten, Giovanni Dietler, Sandor Kasas, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Leonardo Venturelli, Myriam Borgatta

Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) are widely used in consumer products for disinfection purposes. QACs are frequently detected in aquatic systems at sub-inhibitory concentrations and were found to affect the development of antimicrobial resistance if ba ...

Trait-specific dispersal of bacteria in heterogeneous porous environments: from pore to porous medium scale

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Filippo Miele, David Scheidweiler

The dispersal of organisms controls the structure and dynamics of populations and communities, and can regulate ecosystem functioning. Predicting dispersal patterns across scales is important to understand microbial life in heterogeneous porous environment ...

Metal nanoparticles functionalized carbon nanotubes for efficient catalytic application

Lakshmi Devi Chakkarapani

Surfactant molecules were non-covalently functionalized with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to retain the remarkable properties of CNTs. Moreover, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were immobilized onto CNTs-surfactant matrixes to enhance the catalytic and biomedical ...

Occurrence and ecological determinants of the contamination of floodplain wetlands with Klebsiella pneumoniae and pathogenic or antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli

François Gillet

The survival and multiplication of human pathogenic and antibiotic-resistant bacteria in ecosystems is of increasing concern but has been little explored. Wetlands can be contaminated by water fluxes from rivers and may present environmental conditions lea ...
