Abstract
Actinomycin D can be used as a promising antibiofilm agent in inhibiting S. epidermidis biofilm formation. The study is also the first insight into how actinomycin D inhibited the biofilm formation of S. epidermidis. Actinomycin D could potentially be used to reduce the risk of biofilm-associated infections. Our study also suggests that the metabolites from Actinomycete strains keep further attention as potential antibiofilm agents against biofilm formation of S. epidermidis, even biofilm infections of the other bacteria.
