Findings from University of Sao Paulo Broaden Understanding of Escherichia coli (thermothelomyces Thermophilus Exo- and Endo-glucanases As Tools for Pathogenic e. Coli Biofilm Degradation).

A report from the University of Sao Paulo discusses research findings on Escherichia coli, a common pathogen in healthcare-associated infections. The study focuses on using enzymes from Thermothelomyces thermophilus to degrade E. coli biofilms, making the bacteria more susceptible to antibiotics. The research highlights the complexity of E. coli biofilms and emphasizes the importance of specific combinations of cellulases for successful hydrolysis. [Extracted from the article]
