Abstract:The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential antibiofilm activity of Rhynchosia precatoria (R. precatoria) compounds over Mycobacterium bovis BCG (M. bovis BCG) as a model for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). We evaluated the antibiofilm activity as the ability to both inhibit biofilm formation and disrupt preformed biofilms (bactericidal) of R. precatoria compounds, which have been previously described as being antimycobacterials against Mtb. M. bovis BCG developed air−liquid interface biofilms with s… Show more
