TLDR
It was found that biofilms developed faster and a higher number of adherent cells were recovered when the organisms were grown in the low nutrient media, with glucose as the best substrate for stable biofilm formation.

Biofilm Formation as Microbial Development

TL;DR: The results reviewed in this article indicate that the formation of biofilms serves as a new model system for the study of microbial development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbial Biofilms: from Ecology to Molecular Genetics

TL;DR: The recent explosion in the field of biofilm research has led to exciting progress in the development of new technologies for studying these communities, advanced the authors' understanding of the ecological significance of surface-attached bacteria, and provided new insights into the molecular genetic basis ofBiofilm development.

Significance of microbial biofilms in food industry: a review

TL;DR: Preventive and control strategies like hygienic plant lay-out and design of equipment, choice of materials, correct use and selection of detergents and disinfectants coupled with physical methods can be suitably applied for controlling biofilm formation on food-contact surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ecological factors influencing survival and growth of human pathogens on raw fruits and vegetables.

TL;DR: Outbreaks of human infections associated with consumption of raw fruits and vegetables have occurred with increased frequency during the past decade and a general lack of efficacy of sanitizers in removing or killing pathogens has been attributed, in part, to their inaccessibility to locations within structures and tissues that may harbor pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compendium of Methods for the Microbiological Examination of Foods

TL;DR: This compendium of methods for the microbiological examination of foods 4th edition helps people to read a good book with a cup of coffee in the afternoon instead of juggled with some infectious virus inside their desktop computer.

Ruthenium red and violet. I. Chemistry, purification, methods of use for electron microscopy and mechanism of action

TL;DR: The results indicate that ruthenium red, as a hexavalent cation, precipitates a large variety of polyanions by ionic interaction, and that its classical reaction with pectin is typical rather than specific.

I. Selective Sorption of Bacteria from Seawater. II. Mechanism of the Initial Events in the Sorption of Marine Bacteria to Surfaces

TL;DR: In this article, a distinct sequence of sorption of different bacterial types has been observed both on glass slides and electron microscope grids immersed in seawater for periods of up to 24 hours.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanism of the Initial Events in the Sorption of Marine Bacteria to Surfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, the reverse phase is interpreted in terms of the balance between the electrical double-layer repulsion energies at different electrolyte concentrations and the van der Waals attractive energies.
