Lauroyl Arginate Ethyl Blocks the Iron Signals Necessary for Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Development
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a ubiquitous gram-negative bacterium capable of forming a biofilm on living and non-living surfaces, which frequently leads to undesirable consequences. We found that lauroyl arginate ethyl (LAE), a synthetic non-oxidizing biocide, inhibited biofilm formation by P. aerugino...
