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.

Quorum Sensing Interfering Strategies and Their Implications in the Management of Biofilm-Associated Bacterial Infections [PDF]
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2020 The bacterial species employ various types of molecular communication systems recognized as quorum sensing for the synchronization of differential gene expression to regulate virulence traits and biofilm formation. A variety of quorum sensing inhibitors;

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.

Screening of Quorum Quenching Activity of Bacteria Isolated from Ant Lion
Microbiology Indonesia, 2011 Bacterial intercellular communication or quorum sensing controls the pathogenesis of many medically important organisms. Therefore, it is important to isolate bacteria that can disintegrate the communication, in a process called quorum quenching ...
