The objective of this study was to characterize the effects of silver nanoparticles on Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Their interactions with several conventional antibiotics and ability to induce a stress response were examined. Interactions between silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and antibiotics against free-living cells and biofilm of P. aeruginosa... hiện toàn bộ
Lysogeny and bacteriophage host range within the Burkholderia cepacia complexJournal of Medical Microbiology - Tập 52 Số 6 - Trang 483-490 - 2003

The Burkholderia cepacia complex comprises a group of nine closely related species that have emerged as life-threatening pulmonary pathogens in immunocompromised patients, particularly individuals with cystic fibrosis or chronic granulomatous disease. Attempts to explain the genomic plasticity, adaptability and virulence of the complex have paid little attention ...... hiện toàn bộ
Normal and tumour cervical cells respond differently to vaginal lactobacilli, independent of pH and lactateJournal of Medical Microbiology - Tập 62 Số 7 - Trang 1065-1072 - 2013

Cervical cancer is a human papilloma virus (HPV)-related cancer, but most HPV infections are transient or intermittent and resolve spontaneously. Thus, other factors, such as cervical microflora, which are dominated by lactobacilli, must be involved in invasive cervical carcinoma development after HPV infection. Previous studies have demonstrated that lactobacilli have antitumour effects, ...... hiện toàn bộ
