Abstract:Antibiotic resistance has reached global proportions, and the discovery of effective alternatives to the common antibiotics currently in use, could aid in solving this problem. The aim of this study was to characterise a bioflocculant produced from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain F29, accession number OQ734844, with 69% flocculating activity and which had been observed to possess biocontrol activity against Staphylococcus aureus SO183 at concentrations of 0.090 g/L and 0.150 g/L and against identified Pseudomo… Show more
