DOI: 10.1016/j.nmni.2019.100608
Abstract: Subinhibitory concentrations (subMIC) of antibiotics, although not able to kill bacteria, can modify their physicochemical characteristics and may interfere with some bacterial functions. This study aimed to investigate the effect of subMIC of imipenem and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0277287
Abstract: Staphylococcus epidermis is one of the most frequent causes of device-associated infections due to biofilm formation. Current reports noted that subinhibitory concentrations of antibiotics induce biofilm production in some bacteria. Accordingly, we evaluated the effect… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11050624
Abstract: Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is the primary cause of health-care-associated infectious diarrhea. Treatment requires mostly specific antibiotics such as metronidazole (MTZ), vancomycin or fidaxomicin. However, approximately 20% of treated patients experience recurrences. Treatment with MTZ… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11070972
Abstract: The most prevalent microorganism in diabetic foot infections (DFI) is Staphylococcus aureus, an important multidrug-resistant pathogen. The antimicrobial peptide nisin is a promising compound for DFI treatment, being effective against S. aureus. However, to avoid… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/foods11152237
Abstract: The survival of Salmonella Enteritidis in the food chain is relevant to its biofilm formation capacity, which is influenced by suboptimal environmental conditions. Here, biofilm formation pattern of this bacterium was assessed in the presence… read more here.
