Antimicrob Agents Chemother
. 2013 Nov;
58(2):1192-4.
PMID: 24247129
Antimicrobial effects of essential oils against bacteria associated with urinary catheter infection was assessed. Tests were performed on 14 different bacterial species cultured either planktonically or as biofilms. Biofilms were...

BJU Int
. 2011 Nov;
109(12):1746-9.
PMID: 22094023
What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? A vast literature has been published on the prevalence, morbidity and microbiology of catheter-associated urinary tract infections. Research and...

Malic S, Waters M, Basil L, Stickler D, Williams D
J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater
. 2011 Sep;
100(1):133-7.
PMID: 21954120
Biofilm formation in long-term urinary catheterized patients can lead to encrustation and blockage of urinary catheters with serious clinical complication. Catheter encrustation stems from infection with urease-producing bacteria, particularly Proteus...

Broomfield R, Morgan S, Khan A, Stickler D
J Med Microbiol
. 2009 Jun;
58(Pt 10):1367-1375.
PMID: 19556373
The problem of catheter encrustation stems from infection by urease-producing bacteria. These organisms generate ammonia from urea, elevate the pH of urine and cause crystals of calcium and magnesium phosphates...

Percival S, Sabbuba N, Kite P, Stickler D
Urol Res
. 2009 May;
37(4):205-9.
PMID: 19468723
The aim of this research was to examine whether a daily instillation of tetra sodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) solution could reduce the rate at which encrustation by crystalline Proteus mirabilis...

Morgan S, Rigby D, Stickler D
Urol Res
. 2009 Feb;
37(2):89-93.
PMID: 19189089
The aim of this study was to examine the structure of the crystalline bacterial biofilms that encrust and block silver/hydrogel-coated latex catheters. Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the...

Stickler D
Nat Clin Pract Urol
. 2008 Oct;
5(11):598-608.
PMID: 18852707
Bacteria have a basic survival strategy: to colonize surfaces and grow as biofilm communities embedded in a gel-like polysaccharide matrix. The catheterized urinary tract provides ideal conditions for the development...

J Med Microbiol
. 2008 Aug;
57(Pt 9):1135-1140.
PMID: 18719184
The crystalline bacterial biofilms that encrust Foley catheters compromise the care of many elderly and disabled patients. The aim of this study was to examine whether the biocide triclosan can...

Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol
. 2008 Apr;
29(5):443-5.
PMID: 18419368
The ability of uropathogens to migrate along external surfaces of silicone Foley catheters was examined. Proteus mirabilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were the most motile organisms. P. aeruginosa migrated over both...

Stickler D, Jones G
Antimicrob Agents Chemother
. 2008 Jan;
52(3):991-4.
PMID: 18180352
Clinical isolates of Proteus mirabilis causing catheter encrustation and blockage are susceptible to the biocide triclosan (MICs of 0.2 mg/liter). Studies with laboratory models of the bladder have demonstrated that...
