Abstract
Membrane vesicles (MVs) are bioactive, nano-sized entities produced by all organisms. MVs of L. gasseri ATCC 19992 were isolated and their effect on the biofilms of vaginal pathogens, G. vaginalis and S. aureus was studied. The L. gasseri MVs resulted in significant disruption of biofilms of the vaginal pathogens.
