Biofilm-control strategies based on enzymic disruption of the extracellular polymeric substance matrix--a modelling study.

A kinetic model is proposed to assess the feasibility of strategies for the removal of biofilms by using substances that induce detachment by affecting the cohesiveness of the matrix of extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs). The model uses a two-state description of the EPS (natural EPS and compromised EPS) to provide a unified representation of diverse mechanisms of action of detachment-pr...

Biodegradability of biofilm extracellular polymeric substances.

This study discovered that biofilm extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are biodegradable by their own producers and by other microorganisms when they are starved. The study was performed in a comparative fashion to examine the biodegradability of biofilm EPS by the microorganisms from the original biofilm (its own producers) and from activated sludge (other microorganisms). Four distinctiv...

Identification of Biofilm Encoding Genes (agg) in the Escherichia coli Isolates by Multiplex-PCR Method

Introduction: Biofilm is a collection of microbial cells that are irreversibly suppressed and mildly washed away. The aggR gene is located on the main plasmid (pAA), which codes for many actuator factors. The pathogen strains of EAEC have an aggR gene, the gene has been identified in six classes of pathogenic E. coli.   Materials & Methods: In the present study, 60 stool samples from children ...

The Ability of Cellulose Polysaccharide and Curli Pili Production in Uropathogenic Escherichia Coli and its Association with Biofilm Formation Intensity

Abstract        Background and Objective: the Formation of urinary infection by uropathogenic E.coli needs   numerous virulence factors and biofilm formation is among these factors. Bacteria that form biofilms express phenotype traits that appear according to the bacteria type. Cellulose is an important compound on the outside of E.coli causing bacte...
