Peptides as quorum sensing molecules : measurement techniques and obtained levels in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
, 2017 The expression of certain bacterial genes is regulated in a cell-density dependent way, a phenomenon called quorum sensing. Both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria use this type of communication, though the signal molecules (auto-inducers) used by ...

Resistance mechanisms of Gram-positive bacteria
International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2002 The introduction and increasing use of antibiotics for antibacterial therapy has initiated a rapid development and expansion of antibiotic resistance in microorganisms, particularly in human pathogens. Additionally, a shift to an increase in number and severity of Gram-positive infections has been observed the last decades. Common to these pathogens is

New quinolones and gram-positive bacteria [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1994 The quinolone class of antibacterial agents has evolved rapidly to emerge as one of the most effective classes of drugs in the treatment of infectious diseases. While the spectra and antibacterial activities of fluoroquinolones, such as ciprofloxacin, developed in the 1980s improved to include most gramnegative bacteria, their activities against gram ...
