Review ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Role of the Microbial Biofilm in the Pathogenesis of Periodontal Disease: An UpdateAndreas L. Ioannou, Konstantinos Siormpas, Miltiades E. Mitsias, Georgios A. KotsakisMicrobial biofilm is generally considered to be an etiologic factor for the diseases of the periodontium and has been and continues to be the main focus of avid periodontal researchers. Based on our current understanding of the role of the biofilm in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease, each different species seems to have a specific role to fulfill in this … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 6 May 2015 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Overview of the Antimicrobial Activity of Some Microbial EnzymesAkram N. Salah, Hayam Atallah AlwabsiEnzymes are substances produced by living organisms that are used to catalyze some biological and biochemical reactions as they either catalyze some types of polysaccharides and proteins or lyse complex materials such as polymers and lipids. Microbial enzymes are defined as the enzymes that can be extracted and purified from bacterial strains such as Bacillus spp., Pseudomonas spp., Streptomyces, or … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 11 Jun 2024 · 6,091 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultidrug Resistant Microorganisms (MDR) and Biofilm Producers: A Challenge for Hospital Infectious ControlDaniel Lucio, Elizabeth Proaño, Alberto Bustillos et al.Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) now represents a major threat to contemporary health care, especially in hospitals, where repeated antimicrobial exposure selects for and facilitates the dissemination of Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) microorganisms. Biofilm growth adds another layer of persistence by increasing microbial tolerance, supporting long-term colonization of medical devices, and worsening clinical and economic outcomes. This narrative review synthesizes evidence on MDR biofilm-forming … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 12 Sep 2026 · 791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Living, Resident Bacterial Biofilm Populations in the Osseointegration of Oral ImplantsStephen Nelson, Honghua Hu et al.This study presents a human jawbone model which explains bone health, disease and quality and the osseointegration interphase, at the cell level. Curation of 454 pyrosequencing data obtained from 153 bone, serous-effusion and granulation samples taken from 40 patients during two-stage dental implant installation, revealed a 20 phyla jawbone microbiome with total genera of 387. Multivariate statistical ordination of curated … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 16 Nov 2023 · 8,251 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractBacterial Biofilm Persistence in Human Jawbone Following Tooth Extraction: Implications of Surgical Debridement and Resident Population-Shift for Oral ImplantsStephen Nelson, Honghua Hu et al.Intra-radicular infection theory assumes that when an infected tooth is extracted, the main source of infection is removed and any residual contaminating bacteria are killed by the immune response, then normal healing ensues. This study investigated whether bacteria and bacterial biofilms persisted in deep bone space following tooth extraction. The study was conducted on two adult male patients seeking dental … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 31 May 2023 · 6,864 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractOn Destructive Peri-implant Bone LossAndre J. ViljoenDestructive peri-implant bone loss is distressing for both the patient and the treating dentist(s). In severe cases peri-implant bone loss may cause jawbone mutilation, making re-treatment highly complex or impossible and violating the treatment philosophy of “first, do no harm”. There are a multitude of causes of bone loss around a dental implant. These include, but are not limited to, … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 25 Nov 2019 · 7,475 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study on Bioelectricity Production by the Synergistic Action of Bacillus tequilensis DMR-5 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa DMR-3 Isolated from Rumen FluidJothinathan Deepika, Sundaram Meignanalakshmi, Wilson Richard ThilagarajThe present study focuses on the bioelectricity production from pure culture of Bacillus tequilensis DMR-5 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa DMR-3. Both the cultures were isolated from the anodic biofilm of pre-run MFC’s with rumen fluid as anodic substance. They were checked for the power production for 10 days both as pure isolates and co-culture. Bacillus tequilensis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa produced 250 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 29 Oct 2013 · 6,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysicochemical and Microbial Caracteristics Performency in Wastewater Treated Under Aerobic ReactorAsma Ben Rajeb, Hamadi Kallali, Neila Saidi et al.Problem statement: The current work study the efficiency of biological wastewater treatment by an aerobic reactor which could be used in small agglomerations. RBC reduced physicochemical and microbiological load of wastewater but values remain above Tunisian standard. Approach: Experiments were conducted on a sand filled PVC column fed with wastewater treated by Rotating Biological Contactor (RBC) at a pulsed rhythm … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 6,681 accessesView PDFCite
