They are everywhere: in oceans, floating in the air, and even inside the human body. Microplastics have become an unavoidable ...
Researchers estimate that most human bacterial infections proceed with biofilm formation. These biofilms are able to take hold in different body tissues and, because they are resistant to high ...
Bacteria exposed to microplastics can become resistant to antibiotics, a new study has found. Researchers from the US ...
“Microplastics are like rafts — a bacteria on its own might not be able to swim down a river, but riding in its biofilm on a tiny bit of plastic ... to assess whether these effects translate to human ...
These studies have implications for combatting biofilms formed within the oral cavity and at sites throughout the human body. Antimicrobial resistance and novel biofilm therapeutic strategies: ...
"We previously found that ferumoxytol effectively inhibits pathogenic biofilms in the human mouth, so we asked if these same nanoparticles could treat an even more challenging biofilm: those ...
