Abstract

The contamination of seafood with Vibrio species can have severe repercussions in the seafood industry. Vibrio species can form mature biofilms and persist on the surface of several seafoods such as crabs, oysters, mussels, and shrimp, for extended duration. Several conventional approaches have been employed to inhibit the growth of planktonic cells and prevent the formation of Vibrio biofilms. Since Vibrio biofilms are mostly resistant to these control measures, novel alternative methods need to be urgently developed. In this review, we propose environmentally friendly approaches to suppress Vibrio biofilm formation using a hypothesized mechanism of action.

摘要

弧菌对海鲜的污染会对海鲜行业产生严重影响。弧菌物种可以形成成熟的生物膜，并在诸如螃蟹，牡蛎，贻贝和虾等几种海鲜的表面上持续存在很长时间。已经采用了几种常规方法来抑制浮游细胞的生长并防止弧菌生物膜的形成。由于弧菌生物膜对这些控制措施大多具有抵抗力，因此迫切需要开发新的替代方法。在这篇综述中，我们提出了一种使用假设的作用机制来抑制弧菌生物膜形成的环保方法。
