Environmental fate and effects of novel quorum sensing inhibitors that can control biofilm formation.

The formation of bacterial biofilms can have negative impacts on industrial processes and are typically difficult to control. The increase of antibiotic resistance, in combination with the requirement for more environmentally focused approaches, has placed pressure on industry and the scientific community to reassess biofilm control strategies. The discovery of bacterial quorum sensing, as an important mechanism in biofilm formation, has led to the development of new substances (such as halogenated thiophenones) to inhibit the quorum sensing process.

[Care in a nursing home, a challenge for everyone].

The medical care of a dependent elderly person remains as complex as ever. It requires a multidisciplinary approach which takes into account not only the pathologies of the person, but also all the risks inherent to their age and their living conditions.
