Bacterial competition mediated by siderophore production among the human nasal microbiota
2018-10-02
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Resources available in the human nasal cavity are limited. Therefore, to successfully colonize the nasal cavity, bacteria must compete for scarce nutrients. Competition may occur directly through interference (e.g., antibiotics) or indirectly by nutrient sequestration. To investigate the nature of nasal bacterial competition, we performed co-culture inhibition assays between nasal Actinobacteria...
