Discovery and design of novel bioactive peptides from the skin secretion of Ranidae frogs
… able to inhibit and eradicate S. aureus and E. coli biofilms at low concentrations. In further studies, this novel antimicrobial peptide was found to disrupt the bacterial membrane first at MIC and then completely at its MBC. The peptide possesses an α-helical segment and a typical heptapeptide …

In vitro evaluation of equine bone-marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells to combat orthopedic biofilm infections
… and horses. Treatment failure is often due to biofilms that are communities of bacteria that are adhered to a surface or to each other and are surrounded in a self-secreted extracellular matrix. The biofilm matrix protects the indwelling bacteria from being killed by antibiotics and the immune …

E-SEM Characterization of Escherichia coli Biofilms Grown on Copper- and Silver-Alloyed Stainless Steels over a 48 -
The formation of bacterial biofilms on surfaces and their subsequent biofouling pose extensive safe and healthy concerns to a variety of industries. Biofilms are ubiquitous, and the biofilm state is considered the default mode of growth for the majority of the world's bacteria population. Once …

Cytotoxicity of Galvanically Coupled Magnesium and Titanium Particles for Therapeutic Effect
… osteosarcoma cells, and bacterial Escherichia coli cells. For murine pre-osteoblast cells, Mg killed cells completely at 1500 µg/ml (less than 1%), while Mg-Ti killed cells completely at 750 µg/ml, which is half of the concentration of Mg. Doubling and tripling the pre-osteoblast cell density …
