Enterococcus moraviensis EMo 1-1Nik of horse origin:characteristics and potential bacteriocin-producing strain.

Nowadays, developed more precisious identification techniques have allowed to validate newer enterococcal species. Among them, the species Enterococcus moraviensis was also validated, at first from surface waters. However, in this study, characteristics and potential to bacteriocin production by the strain E.

Antibiofilm Activity of spp. and Isolated from Equine Skin against .

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity of , and , isolated from equine skin, against biofilm-forming CCM 4223 and clinical isolate methicillin-resistant (MRSA). Non-neutralized cell-free supernatants (nnCFS) of tested skin isolates completely inhibited the growth and biofilm formation of strains and caused dispersion of the 24 h preformed biofilm in the range of 21-90%. The majority of the pH-neutralized cell-free supernatants (nCFS) of skin isolates inhibited the biofilm formation of both strains in the range of 20-100%.

Detection of Periodontal Pathogens from Dental Plaques of Dogs with and without Periodontal Disease.

Dental plaque bacteria are one of the main factors responsible for the development of a periodontal disease, which is the most common infectious disease in dogs. The aim of this study was to identify the presence of periodontal disease-related bacteria in the dental plaque of dogs. Plaque samples were taken from dogs with and without periodontal disease.

Horses as a source of bioactive fecal strains Enterococcus mundtii.

Bacteriocin-producing bacteria with probiotic character are known as nutritional supplements mainly for livestock. Among those beneficial bacteria we also found enterococci. Because the species strains Enterococcus mundtii also can produce bacteriocins, this study was focused on fecal strains E.

Antiadhesive, antibiofilm and dispersion activity of biosurfactants isolated from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens 3/22.

The aim of this work was to monitor the potential antibiofilm properties of biosurfactants (BS) isolated from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens 3/22 against biofilm formation of the indicator strain Staphylococcus aureus CCM 4223. In this work, the effect of BS 3/22 on biofilm growth during co-incubation, inhibition of biofilm-forming cell adhesion and biofilm dispersion was studied. BS 3/22 inhibited biofilm formation, with its formation decreasing significantly (p < 0.
