Activity of allylisothiocyanate and 2-phenylethylisothiocyanate on motility and biofilm prevention of pathogenic bacteria

Isothiocyanates (ITCs) are plant secondary metabolites with a range of biological effects including antimicrobial activity. This study reports the activity of two ITCs [allylisothiocyanate (AITC) and 2-phenylethylisothiocyanate (PEITC)] on bacterial motility and prevention of biofilm formation by Es...
