Bacterial biofilms: role of quorum sensing and quorum quenching [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology and Agricultural Sciences, 2022 Bacterial biofilms provide an adjustable strategy to manage themselves in the existing conditions. Biofilms of pathogenic bacteria act as a reservoir for various device and non-device related diseases which are tough to cure. Exposure to a high dose of antibiotics is not an appropriate solution to this problem as high antibiotic concentrations lead to ...

Development of Polymeric Materials to Inhibit Bacterial Quorum Sensing [PDF]
, 2014 Bacterial infections are an increasing problem for human health. In fact, an increasing number of infections are caused by bacteria that are resistant to most antibiotics and their combinations. A new solution to fight bacteria and infectious diseases,

Durable formulations of quorum quenching enzymes. [PDF]
Sci RepAbstract Enzymes with industrial potential often face limitations due to stability and longevity constraints. Thermostable quorum quenching lactonases are appealing biotechnology tools for controlling microbial pathogenicity and biofilm formation via the interference of quorum sensing.

Resistance to Quorum-Quenching Compounds [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2013 ABSTRACT Bacteria have the remarkable ability to communicate as a group in what has become known as quorum sensing (QS), and this trait has been associated with important bacterial phenotypes, such as virulence and biofilm formation. Bacteria also have an incredible ability to evolve resistance to all known antimicrobials.

Prevention of biofilm formation by quorum quenching [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2020 AbstractQuorum sensing (QS) is a mechanism that enables microbial communication. It is based on the constant secretion of signaling molecules to the environment. The main role of QS is the regulation of vital processes in the cell such as virulence factor production or biofilm formation.

Crystal Structures of a Quorum-quenching Antibody [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Biology, 2007 A large number of Gram-negative bacteria employ N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) as signaling molecules in quorum sensing, which is a population density-dependent mechanism to coordinate gene expression. Antibody RS2-1G9 was elicited against a lactam mimetic of the N-acyl homoserine lactone and represents the only reported monoclonal antibody that ...

Quorum sensing : understanding the role of bacteria in meat spoilage [PDF]
, 2010 Quorum sensing is a fundamental process to all of microbiology since it is ubiquitous in the bacterial world, where bacterial cells communicate with each other using low molecular weight signal molecules called autoinducers.
