Metabolite from supernatant of soil and plant-associated bacteria control biofilm of fish pathogens.

Objectives: This research aimed to identify and quantify the antibiofilm activity of bioactive compounds from bacteria isolated from rhizosphere and nodule butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea), rhizosphere clove afo 3 (Syzygium aromaticum), nodule mimosa (Mimosa pudica L.), and soil from gold mining land which were recovered from Ternate, Tidore, Obi Island, and Marotai Island, Eastern part of Indonesia.

Results: Eight supernatants from soil and plant-associated bacteria were found to have quorum quenching activity against Chromobacterium violaceum. All supernatants exhibited antibiofilm activity against biofilm formed by Aeromonas hydrophila and Vibrio harveyi. The supernatant of FT5 showed the highest activity in disrupting (66.59%) and inhibiting (85.63%) the biofilm of A. hydrophila. For V. harveyi, the supernatant of PTM3 showed the highest disruption activity (72.61%), whileRCA7 showed the highest inhibition activity(75.68%). The Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) identified fatty acids, ester, and diketopiperazine as the compounds related to the antibiofilm activity. Molecular identification revealed that the isolates belong to the genera Bacillus, Priestia, and Chryseobacterium.
