Influence of Flagella on Enteritidis Sedimentation, Biofilm Formation, Disinfectant Resistance, and Interspecies Interactions.

Flagella are essential for bacterial motility and biofilm formation by aiding bacterial attachment to surfaces. However, the impact of flagella on bacterial behavior, particularly biofilm formation, remains unclear. This study constructed two flagellar mutation strains of Enteritidis (SE), namely, SE-Δ and SE-Δ, and confirmed the loss of flagellar structures and motility in these strains.

Effects of folic acid supplementation on cognitive impairment: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Objective: With the increasing number of patients with cognitive impairment, nonpharmacological ways to delay cognitive impairment have attracted people's attention, such as lifestyle changes and nutritional supplementation. Folic acid supplementation appears to be a promising treatment option. However, it remains controversial whether folic acid supplementation is effective in delaying adult's cognitive impairment.

Comparative study on inhibitory effects of ferulic acid and p-coumaric acid on Salmonella Enteritidis biofilm formation.

Biofilm cells exhibit higher resistance than their planktonic counterparts to commonly used disinfectants in food industry. Phenolic acids are promising substitute offering less selective pressure than traditional antibiotics. This study aims to evaluate the inhibitory effects of ferulic acid (FA) and p-coumaric acid (p-CA) on Salmonella Enteritidis biofilm formation and explore the underlying inhibitory mechanisms.
