Batch culture of biofilms on peg lids is a versatile method that can be used for microtiter
determinations of biofilm antimicrobial susceptibility. In this paper, we describe a core …

Rhizobial soil bacteria can form a symbiosis with legumes in which the bacteria fix
atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia that can be utilized by the host. The plant, in turn …

A biofilm is an assemblage, aggregation, or community of microbial cells bounded by a
polymeric matrix comprising polysaccharides that are associated with an inert or biotic …

Rhizobium leguminosarum is a soil bacterium with the ability to form nitrogen-fixing nodules
on the roots of leguminous plants. Soil-dwelling, free-living R. leguminosarum often …

Ancient wheats are characterized by high nutritional value, low nitrogen requirements, and
good adaptability which make them particularly suitable for marginal areas or low-input …

This review is the sixth update of the original article published in 1999 on the application of
MALDI mass spectrometry to the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates and brings …
