  2. Staphylococcus epidermidis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staphylococcus_epidermidis

    Although S. epidermidis is not usually pathogenic, patients with compromised immune systems are at risk of developing infection. These infections are generally hospital-acquired. [4] S. epidermidis is a particular concern for people with catheters or other surgical implants because it is known to form biofilms that grow on these devices. [5]

  3. Dispersin B - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersin_B

    Dispersin B is produced by Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, a Gram-negative oral bacterium, when it needs to detach and disperse adherent bacterial cells. [4] A. actinomycetemcomitans forms asymmetric biofilm lobed colonies that release single cells or small clusters of bacterial cells, which can attach to nearby surfaces, form new colonies, and enable the biofilm to spread.

  4. Staphylococcus capitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staphylococcus_capitis

    Starting very early, research into biofilm formation in Staphylococcus epidermidis has served as a model for other staphylococci such as Staphylococcus aureus and other CoNS species. Moreover, data also showed that S. capitis have a strain (AYP1020) that researchers use to general genomic characteristics compared to S. epidermidis’ strain ...

    Potential probiotic treatment includes the use of Staphylococcus epidermidis to inhibit C. acnes growth. S. epidermidis produces succinic acid which has been shown to inhibit C. acnes growth. [42] Lactobacillus plantarum has also been shown to act as an anti-inflammatory and improve antimicrobial properties of the skin when applied topically ...

    The S. sciuri group appears to be the closest relations to the genus Macrococcus. S. pulvereri has been shown to be a junior synonym of S. vitulinus. [13] Within these clades, the S. haemolyticus and S. simulans groups appear to be related, as do the S. aureus and S. epidermidis groups. [14] S. lugdunensis appears to be related to the S ...

  7. Biofilm prevention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm_prevention

    The C2DA inhibit methicillin resistant staphylococcus biofilm, but don't eliminate it. The mechanism of the biofilm inhibition by these molecules is still unknown. C2D is a medium of fatty acid chain that effect on staphylococcus aureus biofilm and dispersion of these biofilm. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the main source for these molecules. [15]

  8. Biofilm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm

    Quorum sensing influences the bacterium's ability to adhere to surfaces and establish mature biofilms, whereas the availability of specific nutrients can enhance or inhibit biofilm development. S. marcescens creates biofilms that ultimately develop into a highly porous, thread-like structure composed of chains of cells, filaments, and cell ...

  9. Microbial mat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_mat

    Microbial mats and less complex types of biofilm are found at temperature ranges from –40 °C to +120 °C, because variations in pressure affect the temperatures at which water remains liquid. [3] They even appear as endosymbionts in some animals, for example in the hindguts of some echinoids. [10]
