Evaluation of the Effectiveness of N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) and <i>N</i>-acetylcysteine-cyclodextrins Multi-Composite in <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> Biofilm Formation

<i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> is a gram-negative bacillus involved in biofilm production in several lung diseases. In this study, the in vitro anti-biofilm effect of both N-acetylcysteine (NAC)—a well-known antioxidant compound and GSH prodrug—and NACESOL<sup>TM</sup>—a new m...
