Description

Xiqian Tan and colleagues characterise a bacterial sugar coating that fights biofilms. Their study from twenty twenty-four works with a pickled vegetable bacterium strain. Such coatings, called exopolysaccharides, can support human health. Biofilms shield harmful bacteria from cleaning and drugs.

The new coating is built mainly from three simple sugars. Its size and ring structures were mapped with standard methods. Antioxidant tests showed strong radical-scavenging power at tested doses. The coating also disrupted biofilms from several pathogens. Staph bacteria were among the biofilm formers tested. Effects grew with dose in the hydroxyl radical tests. Food and health products could use such natural antibiofilm agents.
