The potential role of biofilms in promoting fouling formation in radioactive discharge pipelines
Biofouling. 2023 Oct 25:1-15. doi: 10.1080/08927014.2023.2269532. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNuclear facility discharge pipelines accumulate inorganic and microbial fouling and radioactive contamination, however, research investigating the mechanisms that lead to their accumulation is limited. Using the Sellafield discharge pipeline as a model system, this study utilised modified Robbins devices to investigate the potential interplay between inorganic and biological processes in supporting fouling formation and radionuclide uptake. Initial experiments showed polyelectrolytes (present in pipeline effluents), had minimal ...

Selected antimicrobial essential oils to eradicate multi-drug resistant bacterial biofilms involved in human nosocomial infections
Biofouling. 2023 Oct 23:1-14. doi: 10.1080/08927014.2023.2269551. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBiofilms are the primary source of contamination linked to nosocomial infections by promoting bacterial resistance to antimicrobial agents, including disinfectants. Using essential oils, this study aims to inhibit and eradicate the biofilm of enterobacteria and staphylococci responsible for nosocomial infections at Guelma Hospital, northeastern Algeria. Thymbra capitata, Thymus pallescens and Artemesia herba-alba essential oils were evaluated against clinical strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus...

Indole-3-acetic acid impacts biofilm formation and virulence production of < em > Pseudomonas aeruginosa < /em >
Biofouling. 2023 Oct 18:1-16. doi: 10.1080/08927014.2023.2269537. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBacterial pathogenesis involves complex mechanisms contributing to virulence and persistence of infections. Understanding the multifactorial nature of bacterial infections is crucial for developing effective interventions. The present study investigated the efficacy of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) against Pseudomonas aeruginosa with various end points including antibacterial activity, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), virulence factor production, biofilm inhibition, bacterial cell detachment, and viability assays.
