    摘要: The present invention relates to a method of measuring biofilms and/or biofilm streamers, wherein the method comprises a system that has at least one channel and a biofilm streamer promotion element, a fluid capable of moving along the channel, wherein the fluid has a flow driven by a controlled pressure; and a measuring element capable of measuring a flow rate of the fluid through the channel. Additionally, method of screening for compound(s) that promote and/or inhibit biofilm and/or biofilm streamers using this system are also contemplated. Uses of the system, methods and identified compounds are contemplated for medical and/or industrial environments.

    摘要: A novel small molecule antagonizes two types of acyl homoserine lactone receptors: membrane-bound and cytoplasmic. A focused library of analogs and derivatives of the original antagonist was synthesized. Analog and derivative molecules harbor a range of activities. The novel small molecule and most potent antagonist protects the eukaryote Caenorhabditis elegans from quorum-sensing-mediated killing by the bacterial pathogen Chromobacterium violaceum. The saving of C. elegans demonstrates the use of these molecules as small molecule antimicrobials.
