Testing Disinfectant Efficiency on Pseudomonas Biofilm

Ruggedness and reproducibility of the MBEC biofilm disinfectant efficacy test.

The MBEC™ Physiology & Genetics Assay recently became the first approved ASTM standardized biofilm disinfectant efficacy test method. This report summarizes the results of the standardization process using Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms. Initial ruggedness testing of the MBEC method suggests that the assay is rugged (i.e., insensitive) to small changes to the protocol with respect to 4 factors...

Effects of norspermidine on Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation and eradication

Biofilms are defined as aggregation of single cell microorganisms and associated with over 80% of all the microbial infections. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen capable of leading to various infections in immunocompromised people. Recent studies showed that norspermidine, a kind of polyamine, prevented and disrupted biofilm formation by some Gram-negative bacteri...

A quantitative study on the formation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm

Biofilms are bacterial cells in a matrix of extracellular polymeric substance. The formation of biofilm depends on the microenvironment. In this study, the effect of temperature on Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation was evaluated with respect to three parameters-the mass of biofilm formed, the production of extracellular polysaccharide and the adhesion force. The results indicate that bio...
