Most people have encountered the black, grey, or pink stains of bacterial biofilms built up on the bathroom tiles or kitchen ...

measured rate of biofilm formation via QS in a bacteria commonly acquired in hospital infections, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. P. aeruginosa forms biofilms rapidly on a variety of surfaces, which ...

Even more concerning, this ability may allow the bacteria to persist longer on hospital surfaces and inside medical devices—areas once assumed to be safe from microbial degradat ...

Bacterial Space Biofilms (1st flight): Launched on November ... cultivo y superficies de crecimiento en las dimensiones de células planctónicas de Pseudomonas aeruginosa, cultivadas en la Estación ...

They found that biofilm formation imposes a "metabolic burden ... The study highlights the delicate balancing act that Pseudomonas aeruginosa must perform during infections.

Plastic pollution is one of the defining environmental challenges of our time—and some of nature's tiniest organisms may ...

By using furanones to prevent quorum sensing and reduce biofilm formation, severe Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections could be more easily treated with antibiotics. This could help in preventing the ...

Moreover, the researchers found that Pseudomonas aeruginosa can use broken-down plastic fragments to form tougher biofilms—coatings of protective slime that can increase antibiotic resistance ...

In a new study published in Current Biology, Dartmouth scientists used experiments and modeling to show how three species of biofilm bacteria coexist. Though one species, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, ...
