Evaluation of the effects of selected phytochemicals on quorum sensing inhibition and in vitro cytotoxicity

Quorum sensing (QS) is an important regulatory mechanism in biofilm formation and differentiation. Interference with QS can affect biofilm development and antimicrobial susceptibility. This study evaluates the potential of selected phytochemical products to inhibit QS. Three isothiocyanates (allylis...
