Comparison of crystal violet staining, microscopy with image analysis, and quantitative PCR to examine biofilm dynamics.
FEMS Microbiol Lett
December 2024
Department of Microbiology, Pusan National University, Pusan 46241, Korea.
Crystal-violet staining, microscopy with image analysis, and quantitative PCR (qPCR) were compared to examine biofilm dynamics. Biofilms of 30 polycultures comprising 15 bacterial species were monitored for 14 days. Collectively, qPCR (representing population) revealed a different growth pattern compared to staining (biomass) and microscopy (colonization): biomass and colonization gradually increased over time, whereas population increased rapidly for the first seven days and leveled off.

Background: The rapid emergence of co-selection between antimicrobials, including antibiotics and disinfectants, presents a significant challenge to healthcare systems. This phenomenon exacerbates contamination risks and limits the effectiveness of strategies to combat antibiotic resistance in clinical settings. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of bacteria in hospital environments that exhibit co-selection mechanisms and their potential implications for patient health, framed within the One Health perspective.

Canine distemper virus (CDV) can infect a wide range of mammalian carnivores and can cause severe illness and death. Domestic dogs may be an important source of this virus for endangered wild carnivores. The objective of this study was to establish the presence of CDV in rural areas of Cambodia bordering three established protected habitats, and to determine the seroprevalence of CDV in free-roaming dogs inhabiting these areas.

Introduction: Lonicera caerulea L. (blue honeysuckle) is a noteworthy fleshy-fruited tree and a prominent medicinal plant, which possesses notable characteristics such as exceptional resilience to winter conditions and early maturation, and the richest source of functional anthocyanins, particularly cyanidin-3-glucoside. The molecular mechanisms responsible for its freezing tolerance and anthocyanin biosynthesis remain largely unknown.
