“…otitidis was isolated from many environmental sources, such as soil, plants [17], food sources [24], different water bodies, sewage [25], and public toilets [18]. A recent article reported the presence of P. otitidis in the sewage water of Taif city in Saudi Arabia [26]. Basically, it can be isolated where environmental pollution is present [27].…”

Pseudomonas otitidis is a rare and unique species among the Pseudomonas genus that has not been previously reported as a cause of male genitourinary tract infection. In this report, we describe a case of a 20-year-old immunocompetent male who presented with recurrent epididymo-orchitis, which was initially misidentified as Vibrio vulnificus and treated successfully. The causative agent could not be identified appropriately using the available routine methods, but a final identification was established using 16S rRNA targeted sequencing followed by whole-genome sequencing.

Bacterial contamination of surfaces is a natural and spontaneous process that often results in the formation of biofilms. The extracellular matrix of biofilm is mostly composed of proteins, polysaccharides, and extracellular DNA and is responsible for the strong persistent ability of biofilm in the food industry. Despite cleaning and disinfection processes, persistent bacteria cause a major problem in food processing environments. Synthetic surfactants, mainly anionic surface-active agent, are commonly used as detergents, foaming agents, wetting agents, emulsifiers, and dispersants. Their tendency to adsorb to surfaces and interfaces and modify their surface tension, is considered among their main properties. They also have the ability to attach to bioactive macromolecules such as proteins, peptides, and DNA causing cell membrane damage. In order to estimate the adhesion kinetic and proliferation of pathogenic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, the surface of glass was coated with anionic surfactant Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS). Moreover, SLS was added in suspension with the culture medium. The physicochemical properties of the material were calculated using the contact angle measurement method and bacterial hydrophobicity using the microbial adhesion to hydrocarbons (MATH) test. The obtained results showed that the number of adhering cells increased gradually as a function of time. However, changing the surface properties of the glass and S. aureus has affected the rate of adherent cells with time as well as their organization. SLS inhibited the attachment of cells, whether it is added with the microbial suspension or at the surface of the support. Generally, the present article points to a relationship between the microbial adhesion, the surface chemistry of the solid material and the bacteria, and the suspension properties.Keywords Sodium lauryl sulfate Á Adhesion Á Microbial adhesion to hydrocarbons test Á Contact angle Á Staphylococcus aureus

Nanotechnology has gained huge importance in the field of environmental clean-up today. Due to their remarkable and unique properties, it has shown potential application for the remediation of several pesticides and textile dyes.Recently it has shown positive results for the remediation of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). One of the highly exploited surfactants in detergent preparation is anionic surfactants. The SDS selected for the present study is an example of anionic linear alkyl sulfate. It is utilized extensively in industrial washing, which results in the high effluent level of this contaminant and ubiquitously toxic to the environment. The present review is based on the research depicting the adverse effects of SDS in general and possible strategies to minimizing its effects by bacterial degradation which are capable of exploiting the SDS as an only source of carbon. Moreover, it has also highlighted that how nanotechnology can play a role in the remediation of such recalcitrant pesticides.
