Applications
Use of this technology to block the processes controlled by AHL-mediated quorum sensing, providing a promising treatment for inhibiting biofilm formation as well as for controlling animal pathogens This represents a cheaper and more sustainable alternative than the use of antibiotics in animals, reducing the costs and occurrence of antibiotic residues and lowering the probability of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
