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.

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.

The Presence of spp. in Equine Hoof Canker Biopsies and Skin Samples from Bovine Digital Dermatitis Lesions.

Equine hoof canker and bovine digital dermatitis are infectious inflammatory diseases of the hooves with an unknown etiology. However, anaerobic spirochetes of the genus are considered to be potential etiological agents. The aim of this study was to find a suitable way to isolate DNA and to detect the presence of treponemal DNA in samples of equine hoof canker and bovine digital dermatitis.

-Derived Lipopeptide Biosurfactants Inhibit Biofilm Formation and Expression of Biofilm-Related Genes of .

Biosurfactants (BSs) are surface-active compounds produced by diverse microorganisms, including the genus . These bioactive compounds possess biological activities such as antiadhesive, antimicrobial and antibiofilm effects that can lead to important applications in combating many infections. Based on these findings, we decided to investigate the antibiofilm activity of BSs from the marine against CCM 4223.

Enterocin M-Producing Enterococcus faecium CCM 8558 Demonstrating Probiotic Properties in Horses.

The effects of non-authochtonous Enterococcus faecium AL41 = CCM 8558, enterocin M-producing and probiotic strain were tested on the microbiota, phagocytic activity, hydrolytic enzymes, biochemical parameters and dry matter in horses based on its previous benefits demonstrated in other animals. E. faecium CCM 8558 sufficiently colonized the digestive tract of horses.

Biosurfactants and their role in the inhibition of the biofilmforming pathogens.

Resistance of pathogenic bacteria is currently one of the major medical problems. Most microbial infections are based on the formation of biofilms, which are a significant reservoir of pathogens. The aim of this study is to determine the antibiofilm and antimicrobial activity of biosurfactants isolated from intestinal lactobacilli and marine bacteria.

Enterocin M and its Beneficial Effects in Horses-a Pilot Experiment.

Probiotic bacteria or their antimicrobial proteinaceous substances called bacteriocins (enterocins) hold promising prophylactic potential for animal breeding. This study present the results achieved after application of Enterocin M in horses. Enterocin M has never been applied to horses before.

Bovine vaginal strain Kocuria kristinae and its characterization.

Kocuria spp. are widely distributed in nature. They are Gram-positive, coagulase-negative, coccoid bacteria belonging to the family Micrococcaceae, suborder Micrococcineae, order Actinomycetales, class Actinobacteria.
