Aculene D

Catalog No.: A49800
Quorum Sensing Inhibitor
Aculene D is a quorum sensing inhibitor derived from fungal metabolites that targets the signaling mechanisms in bacteria. It effectively reduces violacein production in Chromobacterium violaceum CV026 cultures induced by N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL) at sub-inhibitory concentrations. This compound is valuable for research exploring bacterial communication and the modulation of biofilm formation, with potential applications in combating antibiotic resistance and developing new antimicrobial strategies.
