Abstract excerpt
In the present study, the effects of an environmental friendly natural reagent coumarin, on the growth and potential virulence factors, as well as its ability to interfere the infection of Vibrio splendidus (Vs), were determined. Coumarin showed no effects on the maximal growth of Vs, and biofilm formation of Vs, while it significantly decreased protease activity and hemolytic activity by 43 and 80%,...
