  1. 1. Antivirulent and antibiofilm salicylidene acylhydrazide complexes in solution and at interfaces

    Författare :Shoghik Hakobyan; Madeleine Ramstedt; Jean-Francois Boily; Mikael Elofsson; Marcus Textor; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antivirulent; Antibiofilm; Hydrazones; Gallium; Pseudomonas aeruginosa; Type three secretion system; Equilibrium constant; Chemical equilibrium modelling; Spectrophotometric titration; UV-Vis;

    Sammanfattning : The growing bacterial resistance against antibiotics creates a limitation for using traditional antibiotics and requests development of new approaches for treatment of bacterial infections. Among the bacterial infections that are most difficult to treat, biofilm-associated infections are one of the most hazardous. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Flame nanoengineering of antibiofilm surfaces for medical implants

    Författare :Felix J. Geissel; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Infection of bone implants is a major problem in the Healthcare sector today. Over the last years it has started to become more problematic due to biofilm formation and increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR). A biofilm provides mechanical shielding to bacteria by ingulfing them leading to a less effective treatment with antibiotics. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Plantaricins as a novel group of antibacterial compounds and enhancers of antibiotics

    Författare :Amani Musa; Hazem Khalaf; Torbjörn Bengtsson; Elena Vikström; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bacteriocin; antimicrobial peptide; plantaricin; antibiotic resistance; PLNC8 αβ; ESKAPE pathogens;

    Sammanfattning : Antibiotics have revolutionized medicine, however, the rapid development of an-tibiotic resistance among bacteria is diminishing their efficacy. Antimicrobial pep-tides produced by Lactobacillus plantarum, i.e., plantaricins, are considered prom-ising alternatives to antibiotics against infections. LÄS MER
