It has already been shown that the cell envelopes (or membranes) of two Gram-negative bacteria, one a marine organism (N.C.M.B. 845) requiring moderate concentrations of salt and the other a ...

Gram-positive bacteria are essential for the structural stability and functionality of biofilms in microbial electrochemical systems (MESs). This study evaluated the effects of lysozyme-induced ...

In recent times we are getting used to the daunting news about the spreading of “bad bugs”, bacteria escaping the action of all known antibiotics. These multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria are well ...

Staphylococcus spp. and Pseudomonas spp. were the most frequent Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, respectively, in the microbial keratitis groups. Among the fungal cases of microbial keratitis ...

Real-time PCR analysis was used to investigate the presence of the gram-positive and gram-negative cariogenic bacteria in cavities after caries ablation (Table 1).

The cell wall binding domain (CBD) of endolysin plays an irreplaceable role in the propagation cycle of phages as it can specifically bind with the cell wall of target bacteria. Although it is a ...
