Biofilm Associated Antimicrobial Resistance and Its Recovery

Biofilm Associated Antimicrobial Resistance and Its Recovery

A biofilm is a collection of microbial cells that have adhered to biotic surfaces such as plant cuticles or animal epithelia as well as abiotic surfaces such as rocky substratum or catheter exteriors. The life cycle of a microorganism includes the fundamental process of biofilm formation for survival in diverse and harsh environments since it is a protected mode of growth allowing colonisation of new habitats by dispersal of microbes from the microbial clusters. The biofilm bound microorganisms remain embedded in an extracellular polymeric matrix that protects the indwelling cells from surfactants biocides several invaders like protozoans and defences offered by the hosts like phagocytic cells. The biofilm bound recalcitrant microbes induce chronic and nosocomial diseases posing a serious threat to public health. It has been observed that various antimicrobial drugs are able to successfully remove the planktonic (freely suspended) states of microbes as compared to the sessile (substrate-bound) forms thus resulting in the development of antimicrobial resistance. Modern pharmacological strategies targeting the biofilm matrix differ from the conventional methods of antibiotic usage. This includes the use of natural compounds such as plant bioactive molecules antimicrobial peptides green synthesised nanoparticles or secondary metabolites from other organisms that not only prevent the rise of antimicrobial resistance but are also safe for the host tissues. Biofilm Associated Antimicrobial Resistance and Its Recovery provides a detailed and systematic review of alternative pharmacological developments in the field of biofilm research. Features: A narrative overview of the mechanism of biofilm formation and its role in the emergence of antimicrobial resistance Recent research in the development of antibiofilm remedies involving biogenic compounds Advancements in biofilm detection methodologies with cutting-edge technologies This book serves as a resource for researchers who need to understand and analyze the progression of events during microbial biofilm formation as well as design safer methodologies for its successful eradication. It may also be used as a textbook for a graduate level course in microbiology or microbial biotechnology.

Lactic acid fermentation of human excreta for agricultural application

Lactic acid fermentation of human excreta for agricultural application

Human excreta is a valuable fertilizer for improving soil quality and crop productivity with a potential to replace or complement the mineral fertilizers. The main challenges related to human excreta regarding agricultural applications are microbial contamination risks loss of nutrients and odor issues. Fertilization by lacto-fermented faeces supplemented by biochar has benefits such as improved soil bulk density nitrate and potassium concentrations as well as the yield and yield components of corn compared to untreated simple stored faeces urine cattle manure and unfertilized controls. Even though the mineral fertilizer produced corn with significantly higher height and leaf length it did not add significantly higher yields than lacto-fermented faeces supplemented by biochar. A faeces treatment process by combined lacto-fermentation with thermophilic composting and biochar supplementation had better reduction of coliforms Escherichia coli Enterococcus faecalis and Clostridium perfringens and higher germination of radish and growth of tomatoes than combined lacto-fermentation with vermicomposting. Urine lacto-fermentation contributed to a pH reduction below 4 a decrease in the ammonium concentration and odor strength as well as an increase in the germination rates compared to untreated stored urine. The results of this study provide important information that can set the basis for scaling up a sustainable technology for the treatment of source separated human excreta while improving its potential for resource recovery. | Lactic acid fermentation of human excreta for agricultural application
