Journal ArticleDOI
Silver nanoparticles as an alternative strategy against bacterial biofilms.
TL;DR: Some anti-biofilm approaches employing AgNPs are described and the challenges and problems that need to be addressed in order to make silver nanoparticles a part of an effective anti- biofilm strategy are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic control of bacterial biofilms
TL;DR: The present review describes the control role of quorum sensing, cyclic diguanosine-5’-monophosphate, and small RNAs in the life cycles of biofilms built by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, and Vibrio cholerae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nitroxide-coated silver nanoparticles: synthesis, surface physicochemistry and antibacterial activity
Magdalena Gozdziewska,Grzegorz Cichowicz,Katarzyna Markowska,Katarzyna Zawada,Elżbieta Megiel +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the facile synthesis and physicochemical characteristics of nitroxide-coated silver nanoparticles were described, which exhibit high antibacterial activity towards both Gram-negative and Gram-positive strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation of antibiotic resistance and induction of a stress response in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by silver nanoparticles.
Katarzyna Markowska,Anna M. Grudniak,Krzysztof M. Krawczyk,Izabela Wróbel,Krystyna I. Wolska +4 more
TL;DR: AgNPs not only display potent bactericidal activity against P. aeruginosa, but also act synergistically with several conventional antibiotics to enhance their effect against free-living bacteria as determined by the chequerboard method.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of oleanolic and ursolic acids on the hemolytic properties and biofilm formation of Listeria monocytogenes.
TL;DR: In vitro effect of sub-inhibitory concentrations of both triterpene acids on the pathogenicity determinants of L. monocytogenes: their hemolytic activity and biofilm forming ability and viability was diminished by both compounds.
