Correlation of quorum sensing and virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates in Egypt

Introduction: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most virulent nosocomial pathogens worldwide. Quorum sensing (QS) regulates the production of pathogenic virulence factors and biofilm formation in P. aeruginosa. The four genes lasR, lasI, rhlR,and rhlI were found to regulate this QS system. In thi...
