Analysis of microbial communities of ocular prostheses and anophthalmic sockets using 16S rRNA gene sequencing
This study evaluated the microbiota of the prostheses and anophthalmic sockets of six individuals by 16S rRNA sequencing. The microbial abundance and diversity were analyzed using the Operational Taxonomic Units at the genus level. Forty-seven phyla, capturing 1,258 named genera, were recorded in the sample set. In both sites, the most frequent genera were Fusobacterium, Staphylococcus, Prevotella, and Streptococcus. The microbial abundance was higher for the anophthalmic socket than for the prosthesis. Alpha diversity showed no significant differences in bacterial richness or diversity between sites. Although the microbia...

Effect of sphingosine and inoculum concentrations on < em > Staphylococcus aureus < /em > and < em > Staphylococcus epidermidis < /em > biofilms
Biofouling. 2023 Jul 16:1-14. doi: 10.1080/08927014.2023.2236584. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease where patients are more susceptible to infection and inflammation. The most salient symptoms of atopic dermatitis (AD) are skin dysbiosis and ceramide deficiency. Here, the effect of AD conditions on S. aureus resilience was investigated. S. aureus and S. epidermidis biofilms were co-inoculated at healthy and AD bacterial ratios and exposed to various sphingosine dosing regimens. In both healthy (S. epidermidis dominant) and AD (S. aureus dominant) conditions the viab...

Long-lasting biofouling formation on transparent fouling-release coatings for the construction of efficient closed photobioreactors
Biofouling. 2023 Jul 3:1-19. doi: 10.1080/08927014.2023.2228208. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn order to build an efficient closed-photobioreactor (PBR) in which biofouling formation is avoided, a non-toxic coating with high transparency is required, which can be applied to the interior surface of the PBR walls. Nowadays, amphiphilic copolymers are being used to inhibit microorganism adhesion, so poly(dimethylsiloxane)-based coatings mixed with poly(ethylene glycol)-based copolymers could be a good option. The 7 poly(dimethylsiloxane)-based coatings tested in this work contained 4% w/w of poly(ethylene glycol)-based copo...

Design of silicone interfaces with antibacterial properties
Biofouling. 2023 Jun 30:1-10. doi: 10.1080/08927014.2023.2228206. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSilicone implants are widely used for plastic or reconstruction medical applications. However, they can cause severe infections of inner tissues due to bacterial adhesion and biofilm growth on implant surfaces. The development of new antibacterial nanostructured surfaces can be considered as the most promising strategy to deal with this problem. In this article, we studied the influence of nanostructuring parameters on the antibacterial properties of silicone surfaces. Nanostructured silicone substrates with nanopillars of vario...
