Product Description
Dodecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone was confirmed to be an active quorum sensing modulator first recognised in|Sinorhizobium meliloti|. The homoserine lactones are the major chemical modulators of within and between cell communication and regulation. The most significant variable defining the function of the homoserine lactone is the length of the acyl chain, with shorter chains displaying opposing actions to the longer chains.
