Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleIncreasing the Critical Micellar Concentration (CMC) of Surfactants Enhances the Removal of Pathogenic Bacteria, P. Aeruginosa, and S. Aureus from WastewaterImen Laadouze, Emna Grami et al.Antimicrobial effects of increasing Critical Micellar Concentration (CMCn) (n varying from 1-12) on Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 over time of 5-, 10, and 20-minute exposures were evaluated. Three types of surfactants (Cetyltrime Thylammonium Ammonium Bromide (CTAB), Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS), and TX-100) were evaluated. The results showed that CTAB had the greatest impact on both bacterial … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 May 2026 · 1,992 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY EVALUATION OF 15 EUCALYPTUS SPECIES ESSENTIAL OILS AGAINST CLINICALLY RELEVANT PATHOGENIC BACTERIADias C., V. Pereira, M.C.B.M. De Vasconcelos et al.This study aims to evaluate the potential of 15 Eucalyptus species essential oils as alternatives to clinical surface disinfectants with known association to antibiotic resistance. Four reference pathogenic bacteria were tested: Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC10145), Escherichia coli (CECT434), Staphylococcus aureus (CECT976) and Listeria monocytogenes (ATCC15313). Gram-positive bacteria revealed higher sensitivity than Gram-negative. Essential oils from E. bosistoana, E. botryoides, E. camaldulensis, … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 22 Apr 2015 · 7,922 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePractical and Novel Sterilization Approach for the Pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus BacteriaRaftari Mohammad, Azizi Jalilian Farid, A.S. Abdulamir et al.Problem statement: Decontaminating meat surfaces has been the big concern of meat industry. Thus, various intervention strategies have been studied to reduce the level of bacteria on animals’ carcass surfaces. Approach: Mixture of different concentrations 1, 1.5 and 2% of acetic, lactic, propionic and formic acids at 1:1 ratio were spray washed on inoculated meat to evaluate their efficacy in … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,803 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPOTENCY OF HONEY AS ANTIBACTERIAL AGENT AGAINST MULTIPLE ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANT PATHOGENS EVALUATED BY DIFFERENT METHODSMohamed Mustafa Aween, Zaiton Hassan, Nur Huda-Faujani et al.Honey is rich with complex natural components which could be useful as antibacterial agents or as preservative. Honey contains high concentration of sugars, low amount of water, high osmolality and often dark colour which influence its antibacterial activity. Disc diffusion, well method, micro dilution assay are methods commonly used to determine the antibacterial activity of honey. In this study, microtiter … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 1 Dec 2014 · 6,564 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBehaviour of Main Microbiological Parameters And of Enteric Microorganisms During the Composting of Municipal Solid Wastes and Sewage Sludge in A Semi-Industrial Composting PlantOlfa Fourti, Naceur Jedidi, Abdenaceur HassenThis study was focused on the microbiological aspects of composting and on the behaviour of main prevalent microbial communities (non-pathogenic and selected pathogenic bacteria) during the composting process of municipal solid wastes and sewage sludge in a semi-industrial composting plant. Results showed that the dehydrogenase activity and Biomass C / Biomass N ratio showed a noticeable increase in the two … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,306 accessesView PDF Cite

InvestigationOpen accessIn the keywordsMicrobiocenosis of the Intestinal Tract of Honey Bees and its CorrectionIrina Vladimirovna Serdyuchenko, Andrey Georgievich Koshchaev, Nino Nodarievna Guguchvili et al.We have studied microbiota of the intestinal tract of honey bees and the effect of various preparations and feed additives, in particular hydrohemol. It was established that feeding of hydrohemol in a mixture with candy caused a decrease in the pathogenic microbiota of the digestive tract of bees. This creates the most favorable conditions for the further development of the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2018 · 7,786 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Ultrasonication on Milk Fat Globule Size and Inhibition of Salmonella enteritidis GrowthUmiatin Umiatin, Dalia Sukmawati, Taryudi Taryudi et al.One significant effect of ultrasonic treatment is the inactivation of microorganisms. This characteristic causes ultrasound to be widely used in food processing, healthcare devices, and water treatment. Ultrasonication is an innovative technology that holds promise for accelerating processes and producing high-quality products. The ultrasonic process in milk processing includes homogenization and sterilization. Milk homogenization standardizes fat globule size, while sterilization … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 8 May 2026 · 1,507 accessesView PDF Cite
