Quorum sensing systems and related virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from chicken meat and ground beef

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate 50 [chicken meat (n = 45) and ground beef (n = 5)] Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates to determine the expression of the lasI and rhl QS systems, related virulence factors, and the presence of N-3-oxo-dodecanoyl homoserine lactone (AHL: 3-O-C12-HSL)....
