Peri-implant infection is rapidly becoming an – if not the most important clinical challenge for indwelling medical devices. To alleviate global rise in antibiotic use treatment of such infections, a plethora biomaterials/bioengineering-based antimicrobial strategies are emerging to restrict or ideally eliminate microbial adhesion and biofilm formation on implant surfaces. Yet, development approaches faces specific challenges, like biocompatibility concerns, reduced effectiveness, long-term...
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) with 1–10 wt% loading of aluminum (Al) were prepared and characterized by XRD, N<sub>2</sub> physisorption, <sup>29</sup>Si <sup>27</sup>Al NMR, FT-IR preadsorbed pyridine.
ABSTRACT In recent years, bacteriophages (or phages) have reentered the spotlight as alternative or adjuvant therapeutic agents to antibiotics. Their efficacy in more recalcitrant forms of infections like biofilms, frequently encountered orthopedic setting, remains less characterized. The present study aimed at evaluating activity phage-antibiotic combinations against Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms. A large collection phages was de novo isolated from a wide variety environmental sources....
The energy saving HAlMSN catalyzed Claisen–Schmidt reaction for (<italic>E</italic>)-chalcone synthesis with high yield, low temperature, short time and catalyst reusability.
Dual type Fe species (isomorphously substituted and a colloidal α-FeOOH (IS-FeOOH)) supported on mesostructured silica nanoparticles (IS-FeOOH/MSN) were prepared by simple electrochemical method followed impregnation.
Abstract The recognition of cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) in the past years as a high prospect material has been prominent, but impractical extraction method from biomass remained technological barrier for industrial practice. In this study, telescopic approach on fractionation lignin and was performed by organosolv catalytic oxidation oil palm empty fruit bunch fibers. integration these techniques managed to synthesize CNF short time. Aside size, zeta potential measured at −41.9 mV, which...
Biofilms are recalcitrant to antimicrobial treatments. This problem is even more critical when dealing with polymicrobial, interkingdom biofilms, including both bacteria and fungi, as these microorganisms cooperate strengthen the biofilm produce a complex matrix.
Oral cryotherapy is used in dentistry as a safe, simple, and low-cost treatment for variety of oral lesions. It well known its ability to aid the healing process. However, effect on biofilms unknown. As result, purpose this study was assess effects vitro biofilms. In multispecies were grown surface hydroxyapatite discs symbiotic or dysbiotic states. CryoPen X+ treat biofilms, whereas untreated served control. One set collected immediately after cryotherapy, another group reincubated 24 h...
