Targeting quorum sensing. Schematic of QS in bacteria as well as methods to block this signaling mechanism. AHL dependent QS within biofilms (left) can be blocked using competitive QS inhibition that outcompetes AHL for AHL receptors (middle) or quorum quenching enzymes that inactivate AHL signals (right) [Reprinted from ref 210.
