Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa'sinherent and adapted resistance makes this pathogen a serious problem for antimicrobial treatments. Furthermore, its biofilm ...

Quorum sensing, first described in marine systems five decades ago, is a well-characterized chemical communication system used to coordinate bacterial gene expression and behavior; however, the impact ...

What Is Quorum Sensing? Individual bacteria use quorum sensing to detect and respond to changes in cell density as a coordinated group. For example, the first reported evidence of quorum sensing was ...

Deep beneath the ocean surface, a quiet chemical war has been raging for millions of years, and scientists are now learning ...

A computational study finds that the natural alkaloids lanoginosine and liriodenine bind strongly and stably to the AgrA ...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is notorious for its role in food spoilage and infections, posing a significant threat to both food safety and human health. Traditionally, antimicrobial agents have been the go ...

Quorum sensing and quenching: A microbial dial for carbon-neutral wastewater treatment. This schematic summarizes how quorum sensing (QS) and quorum quenching (QQ) control greenhouse gas emissions ...

Scientists discovered that disrupting the chemical messages bacteria use to communicate can push dental plaque toward a healthier microbial balance. The approach could lead to new treatments for gum ...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa sopravvive in ambienti diversi grazie a versatilità metabolica, biofilm e resistenza adattativa uniche ...
