Abstract:
Klebsiella oxytoca (K. oxytoca) is a Gram-negative microbe generally associated with community and hospital-acquired infections. Due to its clinical significance, we evaluated the effect of biofield treatment on phenotype and biotype characteristics of K. oxytoca (ATCC 43165). The study was performed into three groups i.e. C (control), T1 (treatment, revived); and T2 (treatment, lyophilized). Subsequently, groups T1 and T2 were received biofield treatment and control group was remained as untreated. The antimicrobial sensitivity results showed 3.33% and 6.67% alteration in antimicrobials susce

Abstract:
Soybean production in Iowa USA is among the most productive for rainfed regions in the world. Despite generally having excellent soils, growing season temperatures and rainfall, soybean yields are decreased by weed interference and inadequate available soil water at key stages of crop development. A field study was conducted at two locations in Iowa in 2012 to determine if seed-applied fungicide or biofield treatments influenced weed community, soil volumetric water concentration and soybean yield and quality. Application of biofield treatment resulted in lower density of tall waterhemp densit

Method: Evaluated the impact of direct electric current with or without vancomycin against Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilms. Results: (1) Electric current reduced the S. epidermidis biofilm and (2) increased the effectiveness of vancomycin.

Abstract:
Candida biofilms have become an increasingly important clinical problem. The widespread use of antibiotics, frequent use of indwelling medical devices, and a trend towards increased patient immuno-suppression has resulted in a creation of opportunity for clinically important yeasts to form biofilms. Whilst there is growing evidence of the importance of Candida biofilms in clinical medicine, not all clinical isolates are able to form biofilms. There is therefore a fundamental gap in understanding exactly what drives biofilm formation and its clinical implications. These structures have become i

Abstract Mitigating the risk of MIC in oil field production relies heavily on biocides and mechanical cleaning such as pigging.

To study the effect of repeated biocide treatments to mitigate MIC, we used a once-through biofilm reactor to generate and remediate corrosive biofilms on carbon steel coupons grown solely from a produced water sample from a West Texas SWD.

Abstract Microbiologically Influenced corrosion (MIC) and microbiological fouling of piping and heat exchanger materials is a common and often costly problem in industrial cooling water and process water systems. MIC failures have caused expensive unplanned outages, the need for local repairs, and, in some cases, complete system replacement. The control of biofilm on surfaces has been shown to be the most effective tool for mitigating MIC as well as for maintaining heat transfer in heat exchangers. The most common method for control of microbiological fouling is the use of oxidizing biocides.

Abstract The response of attached bacteria on internal surfaces of steel pipes to various biocide treatments was assessed using a custom designed field test facility equipped with five separate flow lines. Successful biocide formulations induced a rapid decrease in viable bacterial counts; however, survivors often persisted after prolonged treatment in low level steady state biofilm populations (approximately 104 cells per cm2). Direct epifluoresence counts of total biofilm populations (viable and non-viable cells) showed no change before and after biocide treatment. This suggests the biocides

Abstract Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and fouling of piping and other components in seawater injection systems have caused expensive unplanned outages, the need for local repairs, and, in some cases, complete system replacement. H2S generated by sulfate reducing bacteria activity sometimes is detected in pipelines and in cargo and storage tanks. Biofilm adhesion is not commonly measured in real time and the decisions regarding chemical treatment and biofouling control and its effectiveness sometimes are delayed. The control of biofilm growth on surfaces is the most effective to

Abstract:
Abstract The efficiency of biocides can be improved by optimizing treatment programs and including the inhibiting effect of other production chemicals. Here, the efficiency of batch versus continuous treatment with a biocide formulation of tetrakis(hydroxymethyl)phosphonium sulfate (THPS) was investigated in a setup with flow-through bioreactors containing biofilm derived from the Danish Sector of the North Sea. The experiments were performed with injection seawater (ISW), produced water (PW), and amended with spent H2S scavenger (SS) and scale inhibitor (SI). In 100% ISW, 60 ppm continuous TH

Abstract:
Abstract Microbiologically Influenced corrosion (MIC) and microbiological fouling of piping and heat exchanger materials is a common and often costly problem in industrial cooling water and process water systems. MIC failures have caused expensive unplanned outages, the need for local repairs, and, in some cases, complete system replacement. The control of biofilm on surfaces has been shown to be the most effective tool for mitigating MIC as well as for maintaining heat transfer in heat exchangers. The most common method for control of microbiological fouling is the use of oxidizing biocides.

Abstract:
Antioxidant activity of fruits is gaining wide interest among consumers due to its importance in counteracting oxidative stress, free radicals and preventing DNA damage. Oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay is one of the commonly used assays to measure the antioxidant activity, which is based on hydrogen atom transfer mechanism. Furocoumarins present in grapefruit are reported to have antiproliferative activity, induce GST activity, inhibit biofilm formation and increase bioavailability of drugs. In the present project ORAC values were measured of Star Ruby grapefruit undergone ethy

Review question / Objective: What is the efficacy of the use of diode laser (810-980 nm) in association with scaling and root planing compared to scaling and root planing alone (placebo) in the non-surgical treatment of periodontitis? Condition being studied: Periodontitis is a chronic multifactorial inflammatory disease associated with a dysbiotic biofilm and characterized by progressive destruction of the tooth-supporting apparatus, which can lead to toothloss.

Abstract:
This research project introduced a novel membrane coating strategy to combat biofouling, which is a major problem for the membrane-based treatment of agricultural and municipal wastewaters. The novelty of the strategy is that the membrane coatings have the unique ability to switch reversibly between passive (antifouling) and active (antimicrobial) fouling control mechanisms. This dual-mode approach differs fundamentally from other coating strategies that rely solely on one mode of fouling control. The research project had two complementary objectives: (1) preparation, characterization, and tes

For meat and meat products, secondary processes are those that relate to the downstream of the primary chilling of carcasses. Secondary processes include maturation chilling, deboning, portioning, mincing and other operations such as thermal processing (cooking) that create fresh meat, meat preparations and ready-to-eat meat products. This review systematically identified and summarised information relating to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) during the manufacture of secondary processed meatand meat products (SPMMP).
