Antibiofilm effects of mucolytic drugs
Mucolytic drugs have the ability to disrupt the structure of the matrix and destroy the formed bacterial biofilms. The most studied is N-acetylcysteine. Ciro Pérez-Giraldo et al. first demonstrated the antibiofilm activity of N-acetylcysteine in 1997, which showed that it has an inhibitory effect on...
