Abstract:
Food spoilage is characterized by the unsuitability of the food commodity for consumption due to the regenerative capacity of the microbiota, which ultimately took control in accordance with the dominant environmental factors. Quorum sensing (QS) has already been implicated in this behavior, despite the fact that there is little documentation available in this regard. Quorum sensing (QS), a terminology used to characterize cell-to-cell communication, is a process to comprehend environmental factors and then employ certain adaption mechanisms to cope with adverse environmental conditions in both spatial and temporal. Therefore, it is essential to analyze the significant function of synaptic signaling in food deterioration. This kind of knowledge could be used to develop mechanisms to control such communication channels, consequently, these kinds of approaches will lower or even put a stop to the processes like degradation responses or even modulate the production of pathogenic determinants in food products. Forthcoming experimentations must be used to analyze the black & grey zones of QS, which deepens our knowledge regarding the way QS influences microbiological activity in foodstuffs and will help in identifying QS's potential for preserving the food commodities.
