Bacterial cells were characterised by a hydrophobicity test, and textiles were characterised by roughness and surface energy. Transmission and suspension tests were then carried out, followed by an evaluation of the wash. The results show that cotton has the highest roughness, polyester is the most hydrophobic and MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) is the most hydrophobic bacterium. It was observed that resistant bacteria can be transmitted to a considerable extent via household textiles. The suspension test showed that the 0.5% European Colourfastness Establishment (ECE) reference detergent did not achieve a sufficient reduction (>5 log colony forming units - CFU) for any of the strains tested, whereas the addition of 3% hydrogen peroxide or 4% quaternary ammonium silicone compound did so for all of them. Washing at 60 °C reduced the textile contamination sufficiently (>4 log CFU) for all strains tested, while the criteria for cross-contamination and wash water were not met (<1.1 CFU/mL). However, the addition of disinfectants to the detergent at 30 °C met all hygiene requirements with the complete elimination of all tested bacteria on all textiles. Washing home textiles contaminated with resistant bacteria at low temperatures was only possible if a disinfectant was added. Otherwise, textiles can be an important vehicle for the transmission of resistant bacteria in domestic facilities.","PeriodicalId":8898,"journal":{"name":"Biofouling","volume":" ","pages":"470-484"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143973373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results revealed similar biofilm metabolites in both media. However, betaine was detected in LB, but not in the case of MVBM. Acetate was significantly higher in MVBM compared to that of LB. Pathway analysis revealed that betaine-producing B. pseudomallei biofilm in LB was associated with metabolism of glycine, serine, and threonine, while acetate in MVBM was associated with metabolism of taurine and hypotaurine, phosphonate and phosphinate, and glycolysis/gluconeogenesis. The NMR analysis of EPS disclosed shared metabolites including dimethylsulfide, 1-methyluric acid and oxypurinol.

This study investigated the virulence of P. aeruginosa PAO1 exposed to sweeteners (erythritol, stevia, fructose, coconut sugar, cane sugar, demerara). Sweeteners didn't affect growth rates. Erythritol stimulated biofilm (100 µg/mL, 159.98% formation), while 10 µg/mL of coconut sugar, cane sugar, and demerara promoted lower levels (∼70% formation). Erythritol stimulated exopolysaccharides production but reduced biofilm eDNA. Stevia, fructose, and coconut sugar increased the expression of lasI, lasR, rhlI, rhlR, pqsA, mvfR, and pvdF. HPLC analysis confirmed sucrose as the major sugar in demerara, coconut and cane sugar. Erythritol stimulated biofilm and some virulence genes expression, while other sweeteners' effects varied. Cane sugar was a biofilm inhibitor with a limited gene expression effect. The sweeteners' impact on microorganisms is diverse and should be further investigated.","PeriodicalId":8898,"journal":{"name":"Biofouling","volume":" ","pages":"512-522"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144092649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this context, metal nanoparticles, both non-functionalised and combined with gallic acid, may offer a promising alternative. This study investigated the effects of gold nanoparticles non-functionalised (AuNp) and associated with gallic acid (AuNpGA) against planktonic cells and biofilms of Nakaseomyces glabratus, Pichia kudriavzevii, Candida parapsilosis, and Candida tropicalis. Both AuNp and AuNpGA inhibited the growth of all strains at 1.56 µg/mL and exhibited fungicidal effects at concentrations ranging from 1.56 to 3.12 µg/mL. The time-kill curve revealed that AuNpGA and AuNp completely inhibited the viability of all strains in planktonic cultures at 8 and 24 h, respectively, exhibiting greater antifungal activity compared to fluconazole. Treatment with AuNp increased ROS production against N. glabratus and P. kudriavzevii. Oxidative stress was enhanced against all strains after treatment with AuNpGA, and exposure to this compound reduced ergosterol levels of P. kudriavzevii and C. parapsilosis. Furthermore, AuNpGA and AuNp significantly decreased the viability of all Candida biofilms at 7.8 and 15.6 µg/mL, respectively. In summary, both gold nanoparticles exhibited activity against planktonic cells and biofilms, suggesting their potential as agents for treating Candida infections.","PeriodicalId":8898,"journal":{"name":"Biofouling","volume":" ","pages":"523-535"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144101249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

No significant differences in %SHC, ML, or LD were observed across the time points. Carious lesions exhibited 60-70% SHC and 125-200 µm depth.

Hard fouling-release coatings present a promising solution, combining fouling-release characteristics with durability. This study tested proprietary hard fouling-release prototype coatings from GIT Coatings, Inc. alongside uncoated controls, colour controls, and commercial performance standards. Three successive experiments were completed, incorporating static and dynamic flow conditions at sites in Nova Scotia, Canada. Initially, biofouling percent cover and cleanability for prototype coatings were comparable to untreated controls. By the final experiment, prototype coatings had significantly lower percent covers than both uncoated controls and the durability performance comparison, Ecospeed. Furthermore, several prototype hard fouling-release coatings had comparable percent cover (and possibly cleanability) to the fouling-release performance comparison, Intersleek. The results indicate that hard fouling-release coatings with potentially greater durability and longevity can achieve similar fouling-release performance as commercial fouling-release coatings.
