Effect of plant phenolic compounds on biofilm formation by Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Abstract: In the natural environment, bacteria predominantly exist in matrix-enclosed multicellular communities associated with various surfaces, referred to as biofilms. Bacteria in biofilms are extremely resistant to antibacterial agents thus causing serious problems for antimicrobial therapy. In this study, we showed that different plant phenolic compounds, at concentrations that did not or weakly suppressed bacterial growth, increased the capacity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 to form biofilms. Biofilm formation of… Show more

“…Biofilm formation of P. aeruginosa PAO1 was enhanced 3-to 7-fold under the action of epicatechin. Epicatechin caused an up to 5-fold enhancement of the P. aeruginosa PAO1 biofilm formation at sub-inhibitory concentrations up to 750 µg mL -1 (Plyuta et al, 2013). 574',-Trihydroxyfl3avan-3-ol 4 (1 -2.5 mg mL -1 ) and isovitexin 6 (0.2 -0.5 mg mL -1 ) exposures also decreased adhesion of methicillin-susceptible S. aureus ATCC 29213 (Figs.…”

“…Bacterial cells in biofilms are extremely resistant to treatment with antibiotics and other drugs as well as to the immune response of the host organism. Biofilms of pathogenic bacteria on medical devices, including catheters or lenses, can cause chronic infections (Bjarnsholt 2013, Plyuta et al 2013. The importance of biofilm is well recognized in medical, environmental, and industrial contexts (Stepanovic et al 2007).…”

“…Most recently, Plyuta et al . have found phenolic plant extracts that are able to inhibit biofilm formation in the P. aeruginosa PAO1 strain when applied at high concentrations [122]. However, at sub-inhibitory concentrations, these compounds have an opposite effect and supported biofilm growth instead.…”
