DOI: 10.1016/j.jff.2016.12.035

Abstract: Abstract Urinary tract infections (UTI) are mostly caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). Cranberry-based products have shown preventive effects against UTI, and this has been partially attributed to their A-type proanthocyanidin content. However, recent evidence… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "NPJ Biofilms and Microbiomes"

DOI: 10.1038/s41522-020-0116-3

Abstract: Current antibiotics cannot eradicate uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) biofilms, leading to recurrent urinary tract infections. Here, we show that the insect antimicrobial peptide cecropin A (CecA) can destroy planktonic and sessile biofilm-forming UPEC cells, either… read more here.
