Inhibition of quorum sensing-controlled virulence factors and biofilm formation in pseudomonas aeruginosa by culture extract from novel bacterial species of paenibacillus using a rat model of chronic lung infection

Quorum sensing (QS) is a key regulator of virulence factors and biofilm formation in Gram-negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Microorganisms that inhabit soil are of strategic importance in the discovery of compounds with anti-QS properties. The objective of the study was to test the c...
