Bacterial biofilms represent a challenge to the healthcare system because of their resilience against antimicrobials and immune attack. Biofilms consist of bacterial aggregates embedded in an extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) composed of polysa...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes infections in patients with compromised epithelial 32 barrier function. Multiple virulence factors produced by P. aeruginosa are controlled 33 by quorum sensing (QS) via 2-alkyl-4(1H)-quinolone (AQ) signal molecules. Her...
