The Formation of Biofilms by Pseudomonas aeruginosa: A Review of the Natural and Synthetic Compounds Interfering with Control Mechanisms
TL;DR: The objective of this report is to provide an overview of the main key actors relevant in the regulation of biofilm formation by P. aeruginosa and to consider biofilm lifestyle as a target for eradication of resistant infections caused by the bacterium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular background level of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine: an isotope based method to evaluate artefactual oxidation of DNA during its extraction and subsequent work-up
Jean-Luc Ravanat,Thierry Douki,Pierre Duez,Eric Gremaud,Karl E. Herbert,Tim Hofer,Lydie Lasserre,Christine Saint-Pierre,Alain Favier,Jean Cadet +9 more
TL;DR: Comparison of different DNA extraction protocols led to the conclusion that artefactual DNA oxidation during the extraction step could be minimized if nuclei are isolated after cell lysis; desferrioxamine, a transition metal chelator is added to the different extraction buffers; and sodium iodide is used for DNA precipitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The flavanone naringenin reduces the production of quorum sensing-controlled virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1

TL;DR: In this article, several flavonoids belonging to the chalcone structural groups were screened for their capacity to reduce the production of QS-controlled factors in the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa (strain PAO1).
Journal ArticleDOI
Statistics of the Comet assay: a key to discriminate between genotoxic effects
TL;DR: It is concluded that a trend analysis of median comet metrics from repeated experiments at different stress levels is certainly an efficient way to statistically demonstrate a genotoxic effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
