Finally, biofilm-forming bacteria use chemical communication, called quorum sensing, to coordinate their metabolism (Camilli and Bassler 2006). Bacteria release chemical signals that are sensed by ...

Both e-Enzymes and plasmids are protected against degradation with the biofilm. Finally, bacteria release signal molecules for a process of chemical communication called quorum sensing.

So far, I have developed and studied models for biofilms, quorum sensing, t6ss killing, and characterizations to determine the success of bacterial genotypes in ecological processes, within-host ...

Pei is working on a way to “put earplugs” in the algae so that the bacteria cannot communicate with each other to produce toxins. “The proposed research focuses on quorum sensing, the general mode of ...

We conduct antimicrobial discovery research towards mitigating microbial contamination of jet fuel and study bacterial biofilms, solvent resistance mechanisms such as efflux pumps, trace element ...

Known as "quorum sensing," this method uses signal molecules that are produced by bacteria and released into their surroundings. At the same time, the bacteria monitor the concentration of these ...
