Background: Quorum-sensing is communication between bacterial involved in virulence. Bacterial virulence can be inhibited by quorum-quenching mechanism. Endophytic bacteria of pegagan leaf may produce secondary metabolit similar to bioactive compounds in

Bacterial biofilms: role of quorum sensing and quorum quenching
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 ...

Reviewing Microbial Behaviors in Ecosystems Leading to a Natural Quorum Quenching Occurrence [PDF]
Quorum sensing is considered one of the most important discoveries in cell-to-cell communication. Although revealed in Bacteria, it has been identified as well as a mechanism present in the other two domains, Eukaryota and Archaea.

Quorum Sensing and Quorum Quenching in the Mediterranean Seagrass Posidonia oceanica Microbiota [PDF]
Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile is an endemic Mediterranean seagrass angiosperm. The taxonomic diversity of the Posidonia-associated microbiota has previously been inventoried using culture-based and culture-independent approaches.

Resistance to Quorum-Quenching Compounds [PDF]
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]
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;
