Antibiotic resistance, virulence and biofilm forming capacity of acinetobacter baumannii isolated from Goranchatbari sub-catchment in Dhaka city
(Brac University, 2023-08)The presence of ESBL producing Acinetobacter baumannii is a major concern for various hospital and community healthcare settings, often being linked to an increased incidence of nosocomial infections. The biofilm formation ... -
Assessment of formation of static biofilm from environmental isolates of pseudomonas aeruginosa and study of their antibiotic resistance pattern
(BRAC University, 2016-04)Biofilms are dense bacterial colonies networked within a polysaccharide matrix with a distinct architecture that has the attachment potential to both living and inanimate surfaces. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a model biofilm ... -
Characterization of newly identified bacterial biofilm degrading bacteriophage obtained from Dhaka city lake water samples
(Brac University, 2023-09)Recently acquired bacteriophages from water samples in Dhaka city which degraded the bacterial biofilms were characterized in this investigation. Bacteriophages unique to E. coli strain 9A(ⲫ9A) and Vibrio cholerae strain ... -
Potential use of Vibriophage in association with antibiotic to treat the vibrio Cholerae biofilm
(Brac University, 2021-08)In cholera prevalent areas, Vibrio cholerae in the aqueous environment can exist in a cell aggregated form covered by an extra polysaccharide matrix called Biofilm. These type of cells are named as VBNC (viable but non ... -
The potentiality of bacteriophage on biofilm treatment
(Brac University, 2021-01)Bacteria can exist both in a planktonic state and within a biofilm. The bacteria remain inert within biofilm. Due to their extracellular matrix, problem arises for the effectivity of antibiotics and biocides. However, ...
