Pyrogallol and its analogs can antagonize bacterial quorum sensing in Vibrio harveyi.

Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 18 , 1567-72, (2008)

Bacteria can coordinate community-wide behaviors through quorum sensing, that is, the secretion and sensing of autoinducer (AI) molecules. Bacterial quorum sensing is implicated in the regulation of pathologically relevant events such as biofilm formation, ba...
