[0037] Example 2 uses a Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm inhibition activity model to evaluate the anti-biofilm activity of the present invention.
[0038] A single colony of *Pseudomonas aeruginosa* (PA01) was inoculated into LB broth and cultured overnight. The diluted bacterial suspension, obtained by dilution with M63 restriction medium, was then mixed with the test sample and placed in a 96-well plate. The plate was incubated statically at 37°C for 12-16 hours. The bacterial concentration (OD) in each well was measured using a microplate reader. 600 After removing the culture medium from the plate and rinsing with deionized water, the surface was dried. 160 μl of 0.1% crystal violet was added to each well to stain the biofilm for 10 min. Unbound staining was washed away with sterile water, and the surface was dried again. 160 μl of 30% acetic acid was added to each well to dissolve the crystal violet, and the absorbance was measured using a microplate reader. 595 The relative biofilm formation rate is expressed as Abs595 / OD600, with DMSO as the control group.
