A Facile HPLC-UV-Based Method for Determining the Concentration of the Bacterial Universal Signal Autoinducer-2 in Environmental Samples
As a universal quorum sensing (QS) signal, autoinducer-2 (AI-2) is utilized by both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria to coordinate several group behaviors, such as biofilm formation, virulence, and motility, when the bacterial cell density exceeds the thresholds. The determination of the AI-...
