Brominated Furanones Inhibit Biofilm Formation by Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium

Abstract: Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is a main cause of bacterial food-borne diseases. As Salmonella can form biofilms in which it is better protected against antimicrobial agents on a wide diversity of surfaces, it is of interest to explore ways to inhibit biofilm formation. Brominated furanones, originally extracted from the marine alga Delisea pulchra, are known to interfere with biofilm formation in several pathogens. In this study, we have synthesized a small focused library of brominated furanones and… Show more

“…Food contamination may occur at any stage of the production process and can result in contamination of the processing environment (Simões et al 2010, Srey et al 2013. It has been recognized that biofilms are a frequent source for infections and almost 80% of persistent bacterial infections in the United States were found to be associated with biofilms (Janssens et al 2008). …”

“…As cepas foram avaliadas quanto à capacidade de produção de biofilme em placas de microtitulação de 96 poços (Nunclon, Nune, Roskilde, Denmark), seguindo a técnica descrita por Janssens et al (20) , com modificações, de forma a adaptar o método para V. parahaemolyticus. Foram colocados 200 µL de caldo APA-3% NaCl em cada poço da placa de microtitulação adicionados de 2 µL de culturas overnight em APA-3% NaCl de cada cepa padronizada em espectrofotômetro a 600 nm para valor 0,5 de densidade ótica (DO), o que corresponde a aproximadamente 5,5.10 6 UFC/mL.…”

“…In immunocompromised people, Salmonella infections are often fatal if they are not treated promptly with antibiotics (Janssens et al, 2008). While Salmonella infections are most commonly treated using fluoroquinolones (e.g., ciprofloxacin) and extended spectrum cephalosporins (e.g., cefotaxime), there are disturbing reports regarding the development of resistance against these antimicrobials.…”

“…While Salmonella infections are most commonly treated using fluoroquinolones (e.g., ciprofloxacin) and extended spectrum cephalosporins (e.g., cefotaxime), there are disturbing reports regarding the development of resistance against these antimicrobials. Further, Salmonella is able to form biofilms on a variety of biotic and abiotic surfaces, where they are a double threat in that they allow the Salmonella to survive and spread in the environment outside the host (Janssens et al, 2008). The Salmonella found in these biofilms show an even higher tolerance to antibiotics than most Salmonella and according to the National Institutes of Health; approximately 80% of persistent bacterial infections in the United States are caused by biofilms (NIH, 1997).…”
