Biocides are chemical compounds widely used in hospital settings for a variety of purposes, but mainly for disinfection. The chemical properties of a biocide, as well as the biocide concentration, influence which cellular targets are affected. Exposure of bacteria to residual concentrations of bioci...
The goal of the study was to examine the influence of flowback water exposure on bacterial survival and biocide tolerance. The transcriptome of P. fluorescens was analyzed using RNA-seq to determine the gene rxpression profile changes occuring upon flowback water exposure. The results indicate that ...
The global response of E. coli tot he broad spectrum biocide polyhexamethyelene biguanide (PHMB) was investigated using transcriptional profiling. Keywords: dose response
