From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 10, Issue 10) Peer-ReviewedCystic Fibrosis (CF) is a human genetic disease that results in the accumulation of thick, sticky mucus in the airways, which results in chronic, life-long bacterial biofilm infections that are difficult to clear with...
-
From:Biotechnology for Biofuels (Vol. 9, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Microalgae is considered a promising source for biofuel and bioenergy production, bio-remediation and production of high-value bioactive compounds, but harvesting microalgae is a major bottleneck in the...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 12, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedPeriodontitis are bacterial inflammatory diseases, where the bacterial biofilms present on the tooth-supporting tissues switch from a healthy state towards a pathogenic state. Among bacterial species involved in the...
