Paramasivam Nithyanand - Infectious Diseases

Author Information

Paramasivam Nithyanand is affiliated with the Biofilm Biology Laboratory and the Centre for Research on Infectious Diseases (CRID) at the School of Chemical and Biotechnology, SASTRA University, located in Tirumalaisamudram, Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, India. His research primarily focuses on the study of biofilms and their implications in infectious diseases, exploring innovative methods to mitigate biofilm formation and the virulence of pathogens.

Research Contributions

Paramasivam Nithyanand has made significant contributions to the field of infectious diseases, particularly in understanding and combating biofilm formation. His research includes investigating the use of chitosan coatings on medical devices to reduce biofilm formation, developing novel approaches to disrupt polymicrobial biofilms, and characterizing biofilm-forming multidrug-resistant strains of Candida species. Nithyanand's work also extends to studying the modulation of biofilm matrix components by natural and synthetic compounds and exploring the virulence factors of various pathogens, including uropathogenic Escherichia coli and Vibrio harveyi.

Aliases

Paramasivam Nithyanand is also known by the alias P. Nithyanand. Both names are used interchangeably in his publications and academic contributions.
