About this listen

Dr. G explains quorum sensing — the chemical "language" bacteria use to coordinate biofilm formation, virulence, and antibiotic resistance in diabetic foot ulcers.

He covers how biofilms form, why diabetic wounds favor them, the role of debridement, and emerging treatments (quorum sensing inhibitors, enzymes, bacteriophages, nanoparticles) to disrupt bacterial communication and improve healing.
