Abstract
The ability of materials to adhere bacteria on their surface is one of the most important aspects of their development and application in bioengineering. In this work, the effect of the properties of films and electrospun scaffolds made of composite materials based on biosynthetic poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) with the addition of magnetite nanoparticles (MNP) and their complex with graphene oxide (MNP/GO) on the adhesion of E. coli and L. fermentum under the influence of a low-frequency magnetic field and without it was investigated. The physicochemical properties (crystallinity; surface hydrophilicity) of the materials were investigated by X-ray structural analysis, differential scanning calorimetry and "drop deposition" methods, and their surface topography was studied by scanning electron and atomic force microscopy. Crystal violet staining made it possible to reveal differences in the surface charge value and to study the adhesion of bacteria to it. It was shown that the differences in physicochemical properties of materials and the manifestation of magnetoactive properties of materials have a multidirectional effect on the adhesion of model microorganisms. Compared to pure PHB, the adhesion of E. coli to PHB-MNP/GO, and for L. fermentum to both composite materials, was higher. In the magnetic field, the adhesion of E. coli increased markedly compared to PHB-MNP/GO, whereas the effect on the adhesion of L. fermentum was reversed and was only evident in samples with PHB-MNP. Thus, the resultant factors enhancing and impairing the substrate binding of Gram-negative E. coli and Gram-positive L. fermentum turned out to be multidirectional, as they probably have different sensitivity to them. The results obtained will allow for the development of materials with externally controlled adhesion of bacteria to them for biotechnology and medicine.

Abstract
Low intensity and very low-frequency electromagnetic fields (EMF) used for preventing scaling in water distribution systems were tested for the first time for their potential impact on drinking water biofilms. The assays were carried out in laboratory-scale flow-through reactors that mimic water distribution systems. The drinking water biofilms were not directly exposed to the core of the EMF generator and only subjected to waterborne electromagnetic waves. The density and chlorine susceptibility of nascent or mature biofilms grown under exposure to EMF were evaluated in soft and hard water. This EMF treatment was able to modify CaCO3 crystallization but it did not significantly affect biofilms. Indeed, over all the tested conditions, there was no significant change in cell number, or in the integrity of the cells (membrane, culturability), and no measurable effect of chlorine on the biofilm.

J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2016; 105:2174-2190.

Abstract
A plethora of antimicrobial strategies are being developed to address prosthetic infection. The currently available methods for implant infection treatment include the use of antibiotics and revision surgery. Among the bacterial strains, Staphylococcus species pose significant challenges particularly, with regard to hospital acquired infections. In order to combat such life threatening infectious diseases, researchers have developed implantable biomaterials incorporating nanoparticles, antimicrobial reinforcements, surface coatings, slippery/non-adhesive and contact killing surfaces. This review discusses a few of the biomaterial and biophysical antimicrobial strategies, which are in the developmental stage and actively being pursued by several research groups. The clinical efficacy of biophysical stimulation methods such as ultrasound, electric and magnetic field treatments against prosthetic infection depends critically on the stimulation protocol and parameters of the treatment modality. A common thread among the three biophysical stimulation methods is the mechanism of bactericidal action, which is centered on biophysical rupture of bacterial membranes, the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and bacterial membrane depolarization evoked by the interference of essential ion-transport. Although the extent of antimicrobial effect, normally achieved through biophysical stimulation protocol is insufficient to warrant therapeutic application, a combination of antibiotic/ROS inducing agents and biophysical stimulation methods can elicit a clinically relevant reduction in viable bacterial numbers. In this review, we present a detailed account of both the biomaterial and biophysical approaches for achieving maximum bacterial inactivation. Summarizing, the biophysical stimulation methods in a combinatorial manner with material based strategies can be a more potent solution to control bacterial infections. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Hydraulic continuity and biological effects of low strength very low frequency electromagnetic waves: Case of microbial biofilm growth in water treatment. WATER RESEARCH 2015; 83:184-194. [PMID: 26150067 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2015.06.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2014] [Revised: 06/06/2015] [Accepted: 06/25/2015] [Indexed: 06/04/2023]
Abstract
This study aims to elucidate the interactions between water, subjected to electromagnetic waves of very low frequency (VLF) (kHz) with low strength electromagnetic fields (3.5 mT inside the coils), and the development of microbial biofilms in this exposed water. Experimental results demonstrate that in water exposed to VLF electromagnetic waves, the biomass of biofilm is limited if hydraulic continuity is achieved between the electromagnetic generator and the biofilm media. The measured amount of the biofilm's biomass is approximately a factor two lower for exposed biofilm than the non-exposed biofilm. Measurements of electromagnetic fields in the air and simulations exhibit very low intensities of fields (<10 nT and 2 V/m) in the biofilm-exposed region at a distance of 1 m from the electromagnetic generator. Exposure to electric and magnetic fields of the quoted intensities cannot explain thermal and ionizing effects on the biofilm. A variable electrical potential with a magnitude close to 20 mV was detected in the tank in hydraulic continuity with the electromagnetic generator. The application of quantum field theory may help to explain the observed effects in this case.

Effects of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields on Helicobacter pylori biofilm. Curr Microbiol 2009; 60:412-8.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to investigate the effects of exposure to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) both on biofilm formation and on mature biofilm of Helicobacter pylori. Bacterial cultures and 2-day-old biofilm of H. pylori ATCC 43629 were exposed to ELF-EMF (50 Hz frequency-1 mT intensity) for 2 days to assess their effect on the cell adhesion and on the mature biofilm detachment, respectively. All the exposed cultures and the respective sham exposed controls were studied for: the cell viability status, the cell morphological analysis, the biofilm mass measurement, the genotypic profile, and the luxS and amiA gene expression. The ELF-EMF acted on the bacterial population during the biofilm formation displaying significant differences in cell viability, as well as, in morphotypes measured by the prevalence of spiral forms (58.41%) in respect to the controls (33.14%), whereas, on mature biofilm, no significant differences were found when compared to the controls. The measurement of biofilm cell mass was significantly reduced in exposed cultures in both examined experimental conditions. No changes in DNA patterns were recorded, whereas a modulation in amiA gene expression was detected. An exposure to ELF-EMF of H. pylori biofilm induces phenotypic changes on adhering bacteria and decreases the cell adhesion unbalancing the bacterial population therefore reducing the H. pylori capability to protect itself.
