Production and Visualization of Bacterial Spheroplasts and Protoplasts to Characterize Antimicrobial Peptide Localization

Here we present a protocol to produce gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) spheroplasts and gram-positive Bacillus megaterium (B. megaterium) protoplasts to clearly visualize and rapidly characterize peptide-bacteria interactions. This provides a systematic method to define membrane localizing and translocating...

Assessment of Opsonophagocytic Killing Activity against Bacterial Pathogens

The video shows an in vitro opsonophagocytic killing assay using a co-culture of human neutrophils with Streptococcus pneumoniae. Antibodies and complement proteins facilitate opsonization of the bacteria, enabling neutrophils to recognize and kill bacteria, showing successful neutrophil opsonophagocytic...

An In Vitro Technique to Study Antimicrobial Treatments on Bacterial Aggregates

This video demonstrates an in vitro technique to study the impact of antimicrobial treatment on Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) aggregates. Fluorescently-labeled Pa cells are grown as aggregates, mimicking the growth pattern during infection. Upon challenging the aggregates with a sublethal concentration of the antibiotic colistin, the real-time assessment of the bacteria-antibiotic interaction is performed via fluorescence...

Antimicrobial Peptides Produced by Selective Pressure Incorporation of Non-canonical Amino Acids

The protocol presents the Escherichia coli-based selective pressure incorporation of non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) into the lactococcal antimicrobial peptide nisin. Its properties can be changed during recombinant expression via substitution with desired ncAAs in defined growth media. Resulting changes in bioactivity are mapped by growth inhibition assays and fluorescence...

Antimicrobial Synergy Testing by the Inkjet Printer-assisted Automated Checkerboard Array and the Manual Time-kill Method

Antimicrobial synergy testing is used to evaluate the effect of two or more antibiotics used in combination and is typically performed by one of two methods: the checkerboard array or the time-kill assay. Here, we present an automated, inkjet printer-assisted checkerboard array synergy technique and a classic time-kill synergy...
