Multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacterial cells embedded in biofilm matrices can lead to the development of chronic cariogenesis. Here, we isolated and identified three Gram-positive MDR oral cocci, (1) SJM-04, (2) SJM-38, and (3) SJM-65, and characterized them morphologically, biochemically, and by 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic analysis as sp., , and , respectively. These three oral isolates exhibited antibiotic-resistance against nalidixic acid, tetracycline, cefuroxime, methicillin, and ceftazidime. Furthermore, these Gram positive MDR oral cocci showed significant ( < 0.05) variations in their biofilm forming ability under different physicochemical conditions, that is, at temperatures of 28, 30, and 42 °C, pH of 6.4, 7.4, and 8.4, and NaCl concentrations from 200 to 1000 µg/mL. Exposure of oral isolates to TiONPs (14.7 nm) significantly ( < 0.05) reduced planktonic cell viability and biofilm formation in a concentration-dependent manner, which was confirmed by observing biofilm architecture by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy. Overall, these results have important implications for the use of tetragonal anatase phase TiONPs (size range 5-25 nm, crystalline size 13.7 nm, and spherical shape) as an oral antibiofilm agent against Gram positive cocci infections. We suggest that TiONPs pave the way for further applications in oral mouthwash formulations and antibiofilm dental coatings.
嵌入生物膜基质中的多重耐药(MDR)细菌细胞可导致慢性龋齿的发生。在此,我们分离并鉴定了三种革兰氏阳性多重耐药口腔球菌,(1)SJM - 04,(2)SJM - 38,和(3)SJM - 65,并分别通过形态学、生化特性以及基于16S rRNA基因的系统发育分析对它们进行了表征,结果表明它们分别为 属、 属和 属。这三种口腔分离株对萘啶酸、四环素、头孢呋辛、甲氧西林和头孢他啶具有抗生素抗性。此外,这些革兰氏阳性多重耐药口腔球菌在不同的物理化学条件下,即在28、30和42°C的温度、6.4、7.4和8.4的pH值以及200至1000 µg/mL的NaCl浓度下,其生物膜形成能力表现出显著(<0.05)差异。将口腔分离株暴露于TiONPs(14.7 nm)中,以浓度依赖的方式显著(<0.05)降低了浮游细胞活力和生物膜形成,这通过扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和光学显微镜观察生物膜结构得到了证实。总体而言,这些结果对于使用四方相锐钛矿相TiONPs(尺寸范围5 - 25 nm,晶体尺寸13.7 nm,球形)作为抗革兰氏阳性球菌感染的口腔抗生物膜剂具有重要意义。我们认为TiONPs为在口腔漱口水配方和抗生物膜牙科涂层中的进一步应用铺平了道路。
