Attenuation of quorum sensing using computationally designed polymers [PDF]
, 2010 It is generally accepted that the majority of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria communicate via production and sensing of small signal molecules, autoinducers.

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.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013 When the Hawaiian bobtail squid rises from the sand each evening to hunt, it swims cloaked from detection by predators and prey because it casts no moonlight shadow, a trick it owes to compartments full of glowing bacteria on its underside. It tunes these mini-floodlights to the right intensity using light sensors on its back, adjusting a shutter on ...

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,

Quorum sensing in group A Streptococcus [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2014 Quorum sensing (QS) is a widespread phenomenon in the microbial world that has important implications in the coordination of population-wide responses in several bacterial pathogens. In Group A Streptococcus (GAS), many questions surrounding QS systems remain to be solved pertaining to their function and their contribution to the GAS lifestyle in the ...
