DOI: 10.1016/j.joen.2017.08.025
Abstract: Introduction: Extracellular material (ECM) surrounding Enterococcus faecalis may play a role in increasing resistance to environmental stresses. Our aim was to determine ECM levels in response to subminimal inhibitory concentrations of sodium hypochlorite (sub‐MIC/NaOCl) or… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1462-2920.15806
Abstract: Antibiotic pollution of non-clinical environments might have a relevant impact on human health if resistant pathogens are selected. However, this potential risk is often overlooked, since drug concentrations in nature are usually below their minimal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2021/8461245
Abstract: Quaternary ammonium methacrylates (QAMs) are useful antimicrobial compounds against oral bacteria. Here, we investigated the effects of two QAMs, dimethylaminododecyl methacrylate (DMADDM) and dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM), on biofilm formation, survival and development of tolerance by… read more here.
