Sentence examples for bacteria of the same from inspiring English sources

The concentration of quorum-sensing molecules most commonly peptides or acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs; special signaling chemicals)—is related to the number of bacteria of the same or different species that are in the biofilm and helps coordinate the behaviour of the biofilm.

For some antibiotics, the concentration required to penetrate the biofilm can be thousands of times the concentration required for planktonic bacteria of the same strain [14, 16, 17].

The antibodies will react with other bacteria of the same type as the original inoculation.

On the other hand, bacterial transformation is clearly an adaptation for transfer of DNA between bacteria of the same species.

For example, bacteria in biofilms can have more than 500 times increased resistance to antibacterial agents than individual "planktonic" bacteria of the same species.

In ordinary circumstances, transduction, conjugation, and transformation involve transfer of DNA between individual bacteria of the same species, but occasionally transfer may occur between individuals of different bacterial species and this may have significant consequences, such as the transfer of antibiotic resistance.

The SERS spectra obtained from different clusters of bacteria on the same substrate and different bacteria on substrates of different lots are superimposed in Fig. 1B and 1C, respectively.

The spread-out nature is common to both biofilms in Fig. 2a, b, citing a similarity in response of the two strains of bacteria to the same substrate (i.e., PP surface with conditioning layer of BSA) regarding biofilm adhesion.

If a bacterium synthesizes 100 protein molecules at a time, I2 is: I 2 = y / 100 ⋅ log (x ) It can be expected that the number of protein molecules a bacterium once synthesizes may be proportional to the average quantity of the proteins y/x, which means the bigger the bacterium of the same structural complexity, the more the protein molecules it synthesizes at once.

That is, it is conceivable that bacteria tend to be surrounded mostly by other bacteria of roughly the same genome size.

Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides that are active against other bacteria, either of the same species (narrow spectrum), or across genera (broad spectrum) (Bowdish et al. [2005]; Cotter et al. [2005]).
