Antibacterial and Antibiofilm Activity of Essential Oils Against spp. Isolated from Rainbow Trout.

spp. is a major pathogen in aquaculture with a great negative economic impact. Essential oils (EOs) are compounds of the secondary metabolism of plants known for their antibacterial and antibiofilm activities.

-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.

In vitro study of biological activities of anthocyanin-rich berry extracts on porcine intestinal epithelial cells.

Background: Anthocyanins, compounds that represent the major group of flavonoids in berries, are one of the most powerful natural antioxidants. The aim of this study was to evaluate biological activities and comparison of anthocyanin-rich extracts prepared from chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa), elderberry (Sambucus nigra), bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus) and blueberry (V. corymbosum) on the porcine intestinal epithelial IPEC-1 cell line.
