Degradation of Quorum Sensing Signals by Bacillus spp.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The AHLs degradation activity of cell-free lysates of Bacillus spp. isolates 30b, 32C, and 6 was assessed against different AHL signals using the well diffusion assay. AHL signals tested were; 100 µM C4-HSL (Cayman), 50 µM C6-HSL, 50 µM N- decanoyl-homoserine lactone (C10-HSL), 25 µM N-(3-oxohexanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C6-HSL), 25 µM N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C10-HSL), 25 µM 3-oxo-C12-HSL (Sigma-Aldrich). The relative degradation activity was calculated for each AHL signal by calculating the residual AHL from a calibration curve constructed using different concentrations of standard AHL and their induced zone diameter using two AHLs reporter strains; Chromobacterium violaceum (C. violaceum) CV026 and A. tumafaciens KYC55, which respond to short chain and medium-to-long chain AHLs, respectively.39 (link)–42 The maximum degrading activity is defined as 100% relative degradation activity.43 (link)

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
