“…As C. difficile displays motility in agarose ( Baban et al, 2013 ; Courson et al, 2019 ), we wondered if altering the matrix elasticity of the medium has an influence on the motility phenotype. High molecular weight polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), which increase the matrix elasticity, were described to enhance motility in various bacteria in a concentration dependent manner ( Schneider and Doetsch, 1974 ; Greenberg and Canale-Parola, 1977 ).…”

“…Flagellar motility and chemotaxis are important for successful colonisation and virulence of many gastrointestinal pathogens, for example Campylobacter jejuni , Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium, Helicobacter pylori , and Vibrio chlolerae ( Boin et al, 2004 ; Stecher et al, 2004 ; Lertsethtakarn et al, 2011 ; Korolik, 2019 ). Most C. difficile strains produce peritrichous flagella, which can mediate swimming motility in soft-agar based assays ( Twine et al, 2009 ; Baban et al, 2013 ; Courson et al, 2019 ). The contribution of flagellar motility for the pathogenesis in mice was studied with the aid of C. difficile flagellar mutants, which were found to be reduced in their colonisation efficiency ( Baban et al, 2013 ; Batah et al, 2017 ).…”

“…As C. difficile exhibits green autoflouresence, the red TAMRA labeling was distinct from any intrinsic signal produced by the cells [62]. Exponential-phase cells and peptides were mixed and sealed within microscopy chambers in an anaerobic chamber and then transported to the microscope, resulting in a 6-min delay between the onset of peptide exposure and the first image [63]. Mean fluorescence intensity within cells was stable over the course of 1 h of monitoring, indicating that peptide incorporation into cells occurs within the first few min of exposure (Figure 1A,B).…”

“…1.49), pco.edge 4.2 LT sCMOS camera, and SOLA SE II 365 Light Engine as well as complementary DIC components (Nikon Instruments Inc, Melville, NY, USA). Mid-logarithmic phase cells and peptides at the indicated concentration were mixed inside the anaerobic chamber and injected into home-built anaerobic rose-type imaging chambers as previously described [63]. Imaging chambers were removed from the anaerobic chamber and placed on the microscope.…”

“…Soft agar can, up to some extent, mimic physical, chemical, and nutritional conditions inside and outside the host [ 29 , 72 , 73 ]. Furthermore, chambers can mimic environments such as xylem vessels [ 74 ], enabling the discovery that Xylella fastidiosa migrates against the flow via twitching motility, and anaerobiosis, allowing researchers to prove that Clostridioides difficile modulates its swimming speed in the presence of a metabolite related to its host colonization [ 75 ]. Likewise, vertical diffusion chambers (VDC) were used to study the role of motility in Campylobacter jejuni invasion of epithelial cells [ 76 ].…”
