, 2022 Quorum Sensing is a gastrosonic experience for three guests. A soup is served in a glass tableware designed from an experiment of associations of shapes and materials with musical emotions. The actions of each diner produce vibrations applied to the body of the others.

Quorum sensing in African trypanosomes [PDF]
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2019 Many microbial eukaryotes exhibit cell-cell communication to co-ordinate group behaviours as a strategy to exploit a changed environment, adapt to adverse conditions or regulate developmental responses. Although best characterised in bacteria, eukaryotic microbes have also been revealed to cooperate to optimise their survival or dissemination.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Staphylococcus aureus is a widely acknowledged Gram-positive pathogen for forming biofilm and virulence gene expressions by quorum sensing (QS), a cell to cell communication process. The quorum regulator SarA of S.

Investigating Microbial Quorum Sensing Potential for Enhanced Production of Biodegradable Polymers [PDF]
, 2021 Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are a type of biopolymer that can be biosynthesised and accumulated by several specialised bacterial species. Their favourable mechanical properties coupled with their ability to naturally biodegrade within the environment ...

Microbial communication, cooperation and cheating: quorum sensing drives the evolution of cooperation in bacteria [PDF]
, 2009 An increasing body of empirical evidence suggests that cooperation among clone-mates is common in bacteria. Bacterial cooperation may take the form of the excretion of ‘‘public goods’’: exoproducts such as virulence factors, exoenzymes or components of ...

Synthesis of majucin-type sesquiterpenes and immobilization and visualization of quorum sensing signaling molecules [PDF]
, 2014 The science of chemical biology is the ability to answer biological questions by analyzing living systems at the chemical level. Two entirely different approaches to reach this goal are presented in this thesis.

Breaking down bacterial communication: a review of quorum quenching agents
Future Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2023 Background Bacterial cells communicate via small extracellular molecules that facilitate gene expression which is dependent on cell density and this mechanism is known as Quorum Sensing (QS).

alpha-Hydroxyketone Synthesis and Sensing by Legionella and Vibrio [PDF]
, 2012 Bacteria synthesize and sense low molecular weight signaling molecules, termed autoinducers, to measure their population density and community complexity. One class of autoinducers, the α-hydroxyketones (AHKs), is produced and detected by the water-borne

Effect of quorum quenchers on virulence factors production and quorum sensing signalling pathway of non-mucoid, mucoid, and heavily mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
, 2022 Quorum quenching (QQ), a mechanism which inhibits, interferes or inactivates quorum sensing, has been investigated for control of biofilms instigated by quorum sensing process. Application of quorum quenchers (QQs) provides the possibility to investigate

Quorum sensing with pheromones [PDF]
Nature Microbiology, 2019 The vast majority of fungi reproduce sexually and use secreted pheromones to signal to each other. A study now shows that these signalling molecules in the fungal plant pathogen Fusarium oxysporum activate a density-dependent autocrine signal that controls asexual spore germination.
