With this study, we developed a method that enables the activity of quorum sensing inhibitors to be measured using ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS). This method is an improvement over existing methods because it can be employed to distinguish antimicrobial activity from quorum sensing inhibition activity based on the UPLC-MS data. This is possible by simultaneously tracking production of metabolites regulated by the agr quorum sensing system (AIP-I and formylated delta-toxin) and a metabolite that appears not to be agr regulated under the conditions of this study (aureusimine B). The newly developed method provides more nuanced indication of how metabolite production changes over time and in response to quorum sensing or growth inhibition than is possible with commonly employed spectroscopic methods.
