Quorum sensing inhibition and antibiofilm action of triterpenoids: An updated insight.

Development of biofilm is a protective strategy for invading bacterial pathogens against host immune response and administered antimicrobials. Quorum sensing (QS) mediated alteration of gene expression profile have been identified as the key modulator of biofilm dynamics. In the context of rapid and prompt emergence of antimicrobial resistance and tolerance, there is an urgent demand to develop alternatives to available interventions to control biofilm associated infections.
