List of algal samples (from all the three divisions: Chlorophyta, phaeophyta and rhodophyta) screened for quorum sensing (QS) inhibition activity against Chromobacterium violaceum CV026. The bioassay was performed in triplicates. Methanol was used as negative control, and cinnamaldehyde was used as positive control.
