  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. Skin flora - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_flora

    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 ...

  5. Staphylococcus haemolyticus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staphylococcus_haemolyticus

    The S. haemolyticus strain JCSC1435 genome contains a 2,685,015 bp chromosome and three plasmids of 2,300 bp, 2,366 bp, and 8,180 bp. The chromosome is comparable in size to those of S. aureus and S. epidermidis and contains a similar G+C content. In addition, a large proportion of the open reading frames (ORFs) are conserved across all three ...

  6. 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]

  7. Extracellular polymeric substance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracellular_polymeric...

    The formation of biofilm and structure of EPS share a lot of similarities with bacterial ones. The formation of biofilm starts with reversible absorption of floating cells to the surface. Followed by production of EPS, the adsorption will get irreversible. EPS will colonize the cells at the surface with hydrogen bonding.

  8. Biosand filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BioSand_Filter

    The high water level (hydraulic head) in the inlet reservoir zone pushes the water through the diffuser and filter, then decreases as water flows evenly through the sand. The flow rate slows because there is less pressure to force the water through the filter. The inlet water contains dissolved oxygen, nutrients, and contaminants.

  9. 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]
