Ascorbic acid modulates the structure of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence factor pyocyanin and ascorbic acid-furanone-30 combination facilitate biofilm disruption

The production of pyocyanin by Pseudomonas aeruginosa increases its virulence, fitness and biofilm formation. Pyocyanin is also a redox molecule and we hypothesize that ascorbic acid being an antioxidant will interact with pyocyanin. The main objective of this study was to investigate the potential...
