Activity of disinfectants against multispecies biofilms formed by Staphylococcus aureus,Candida albicans and Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Microbial biofilms are a serious threat to human health. Recent studies have indicated that many clinically relevant biofilms are polymicrobial. In the present study, multispecies biofilms were grown in a reproducible manner in a 96-well microtiter plate. The efficacy of nine commercially available disinfectants against Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in multispecies biofilms was determined and compared. The results showed that the direction and the magnitude of the effect in a multispecies biofilm depend on the strain and the disinfectant used and challenge the common belief that organisms in multispecies biofilms are always less susceptible than in monospecies biofilms.     

Analysis of Staphylococcus aureus cytoplasmic membrane proteins by isoelectric focusing

Cytoplasmic membranes were isolated from late-exponential phase Staphylococcus aureus 6538 P and the membrane proteins examined under non-denaturing conditions by thin-layer isoelectric focusing (TLIEF) in a pH 3.5–9.5 gradient. Isolated membrane preparations retained protein integrity as judged by the demostration of membrane bound adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity in addition to four solubilzed membrane enzyme markers. Membranes were effectively solubilized with 2.5% Triton X-100 (final concentration). Examination of Triton X-100 solubilized membrane preparations established the presence of 22 membrane proteins with isoelectric points between 3.7 and 6.0. The focused proteins displayed the following enzymatic activities and isoelectric points by zymogram methods: ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3), 4.20; malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37), 3.90; lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27), 3.85; two membrane proteins exhibited multiple bands upon enzymatic staining: NADH dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.3), 4.25, 4.35; succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.1), 4.85, 5.10, 5.35.     

The effects of human tear electrolytes on the viability and hydrogel colonization of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus

This study was designed to evaluate the effects of the inorganic electrolytes present in human tear film on the viability and colonization of bacteria to hydrogels. Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus were used in these experiments. A D-value test was performed to investigate any bacteriostatic effect by measuring the reduction of viable test microorganisms over time when exposed to the inorganic electrolyte solution. No D-value was calculable for S. aureus in electrolyte solution whereas a D-value of 8.1 h was obtained for P. aeruginosa in electrolyte solution. The D-value data indicate that staphylococci have a greater survivability potential in a hypertonic environment than do pseudomonads. Bacterial adhesion to high water, ionic hydrogels was studied using the Modified Robbins Device (MRD). The data for P. aeruginosa recovered from the lenses showed an 82% decrease in bacterial counts in electrolyte solution as compared to bacteria incubated in control solution. In contrast there were slight increases in S. aureus counts recovered from the lenses. Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology (2000) 25, 17–19.

Persister cells and tolerance to antimicrobials

Bacterial populations produce persister cells that neither grow nor die in the presence of microbicidal antibiotics. Persisters are largely responsible for high levels of biofilm tolerance to antimicrobials, but virtually nothing was known about their biology. Tolerance of Escherichia coli to ampicillin and ofloxacin was tested at different growth stages to gain insight into the nature of persisters. The number of persisters did not change in lag or early exponential phase, and increased dramatically in mid-exponential phase. Similar dynamics were observed with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ofloxacin) and Staphylococcus aureus (ciprofloxacin and penicillin). This shows that production of persisters depends on growth stage. Maintaining a culture of E. coli at early exponential phase by reinoculation eliminated persisters. This suggests that persisters are not at a particular stage in the cell cycle, neither are they defective cells nor cells created in response to antibiotics. Our data indicate that persisters are specialized survivor cells.     

新疆家蚕抗菌肽抗菌作用的超微结构观察及抗菌机理初探

为探讨基因工程表达的新疆家蚕(Bombyx mori)抗菌肽(cecropin-XJ)的抗菌机制,通过紫外分光光度法研究抗菌肽的抑菌动力学,并采用透射电镜观察抗菌肽作用于金黄色葡萄球菌(Staphylococcus aureus)后的超微结构,对抗菌肽抗菌机理进行初步探讨。结果表明,抗菌肽抑菌作用比较明显,抗菌肽的活性与作用时间有关。抗菌肽可能是通过\"桶-板\"模式渗透细胞膜,从而影响细胞膜的结构和功能,使细胞膜形成许多孔道,增强了金黄色葡萄球菌细胞的通透性,造成细胞内的原生质扩散,并从孔道向胞外渗漏,影响了细菌的代谢系统,从而起到抑菌、杀菌作用。抗菌肽使金黄色葡萄球菌细胞内容物大量渗漏而死亡,死亡细胞的细胞壁保持完整,表明细胞膜是抗菌肽作用的主要靶位点。     

Chitosan: antimicrobial action upon staphylococci after impregnation onto cotton fabric

Background: High levels of viable Staphylococcus aureus, which are often found on inflamed skin surfaces, are usually associated with atopic dermatitis. Textiles, owing to their high specific surface area and intrinsic hydrophilicity, retain moisture while also providing excellent environmental conditions for microbial growth and proliferation. Recently, a number of chemicals have been added to textiles, so as to confer antimicrobial activity. Aims: To evaluate the antimicrobial action of chitosan upon selected skin staphylococci. Methods and Results: We isolated staphylococci from normal skin of 24 volunteers and studied their survival upon contact with chitosan‐impregnated cotton fabric. Low and high molecular weight chitosans were used at two concentrations; all four did effectively reduce the growth of some staphylococci (namely Staph. aureus), by up to 5 log cycles, thus unfolding a potential towards control and even prevention of related skin disorders. Conclusion: Our data suggest an effective, but selective antibacterial action of chitosans towards skin bacteria. Significance and Impact of the Study: The possibility to use a natural biopolymer incorporated in a textile to alleviate and even treat some of the symptoms associated with this skin condition may raise an alternative to existing medical treatments. The selectivity observed prevents full elimination of bacteria from the skin surface, which is an advantage.     

Bacterial patterning at the three-phase line of contact with microtextured alkanes

Aliphatic crystallites, characteristic of the eicosane and docosane components of naturally occurring lipids, were found to form microtextures that were structured by specific interactions with ordered graphite (HOPG) used as the underlying substratum, as confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and fast Fourier transform (FFT) analysis. Confocal scanning laser microscopy (CLSM) showed highly directed bacterial alignment for two bacterial species (spherical and rod-shaped), reflecting the preferential orientation of the crystallite–air–water interfaces to give linear and triangular bacterial patterning. The mechanisms of bacterial attachment are demonstrated in terms of the balance between effective radial adhesional forces and the capillary forces resulting from the water contact angle of the bacteria at the three-phase line (TPL) of the lipid surface. It is suggested that these microtextured surfaces, which exhibit the ability to limit bacterial adhesion to a precise patterning at the lipid TPL, could be used as a means of controlling bacterial colonization.
