“…aureus through affecting the initial attachment phase of biofilm development (Wu, Liu, Bai, et al, 2019; Wu, Liu, Zhu, & Shen, 2019). Numerous studies have demonstrated that phenolic compounds possess multi‐target antibacterial mechanisms against pathogens, including damaging cell membrane, interrupting cell wall, binding to bacterial DNA, and inhibiting the synthesis of proteins and nuclear acids (Aldulaimi, Drijfhout, Uche, Horrocks, & Li, 2019; Niu et al, 2019; Wang, Zou, Xie, & Xie, 2014). However, further information at molecular level for elucidation of the antibacterial mechanism of phenolic compounds was not well understood.…”
