Quorum sensing and self-quorum quenching in the intracellular pathogen Brucellamelitensis.
PLoS ONE, 2013 Brucella quorum sensing has been described as an important regulatory system controlling crucial virulence determinants such as the VirB type IV secretion system and the flagellar genes.

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Particulate matter (PM) is a major global health threat, linked to millions of deaths annually. Beyond inhalation, PM components reach the gastrointestinal tract through the mucociliary escalator or contaminated food and water. Among PM's organic fraction, redox‐active quinones such as 1,2‐naphthoquinone (NQ) and 9,10‐phenanthrenequinone (PQ ...

Interference of Quorum Sensing by Delftia sp. VM4 Depends on the Activity of a Novel N-Acylhomoserine Lactone-Acylase. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Turf soil bacterial isolate Delftia sp. VM4 can degrade exogenous N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL), hence it effectively attenuates the virulence of bacterial soft rot pathogen Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp.

Halogen‐Mediated Polymer‐Free Recovery of Pristine MoS2 Monolayers From Gold‐Assisted Exfoliation
Small Methods, EarlyView.Schematic procedure for halogen‐mediated polymer‐free recovery of pristine MoS2 monolayers from gold‐assisted exfoliation. ABSTRACT Metal‐assisted mechanical exfoliation has recently emerged as a powerful strategy for producing large‐area monolayers of two‐dimensional (2D) transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) with near‐intrinsic crystalline quality.

Quorum Quenching Enzymes and Biofouling Control
Journal of Life Science, 2016 Bacterial cell to cell communication strategies called quorum sensing (QS) using small diffusible signaling molecules (auto-inducers) govern the expression of various genes dependent on their population density manner. As a consequence of synthesis and response to the signaling molecules, individual planktonic cells synchronized group behaviors to ...
