Abstract: The treatment of Helicobacter pylori usually fails due to their ability to form biofilms and resistance to antibiotics. This might potentially lead to gastric carcinoma and mucosa‐associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. In the present study, we… read more here.

Abstract: The pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses quorum sensing (QS) to control virulence and biofilm formation. Enzymatic disruption of quorum sensing is a promising anti-infection therapeutic strategy that does not rely on antibiotics. Here, a novel gene… read more here.
