The phenazine pyocyanin is a terminal signalling factor in the quorum sensing network of Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
Certain members of the fluorescent pseudomonads produce and secrete phenazines. These heterocyclic, redox-active compounds are toxic to competing organisms, and the cause of these antibiotic effects has been the focus of intense research efforts.

Quorum Sensing Inhibitory Activities of Oridonin in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa [PDF]
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen, and it can produce cell-associated and extracellular virulence factors. Several of these virulence factors have been demonstrated to be regulated by quorum sensing (QS).

Synergistic Activity of Fosfomycin, Ciprofloxacin, and Gentamicin Against Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilms [PDF]
Gram-negative (GN) rods cause about 10% periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and represent an increasing challenge due to emergence of antimicrobial resistance.

Influence of the lung microbiome on antibiotic susceptibility of cystic fibrosis pathogens [PDF]
The lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) are colonised by a microbial community comprised of pathogenic species, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus, and microorganisms that are typically not associated with worse clinical ...
