N-3-oxo-butyryl-L-Homoserine l

Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry for the Detection and Quantification of N-Acyl-l-Homoserine Lactones and 4-Hydroxy-2-Alkylquinolines

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled in-line with mass spectrometry (MS) permits rapid and specific identification and quantification of N -acyl-l -homoserine lactones (AHLs) and 4-hydroxy-2-alkylquinolines (HAQs

Determination of Acyl Homoserine Lactone and Tetramic Acid Concentrations in Biological Samples

for the detection of these QS signals may provide insights into the pathogenicity and survival of P. aeruginosa . In this chapter, we present a method for the extraction and quantitation of the P. aeruginosa QS signal N -3-oxo-dodecanoyl-homoserine lactone

Defining the Structure and Function of Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Autoinducers

molecules in the quorum sensing gene-regulatory processes found in numerous gram-negative species of bacteria that interact with eukaryotic organisms. AHLs are produced by acyl-homoserine lactone synthases. Bacteria can have multiple genes for AHL synthase
