最简单的例子，细菌用群体感应与他们的邻居保持联系。
In its simplest form, bacteria use quorum sensing to keep track of their neighbours.
理论上，对群体感应系统进行干扰可以阻止生成作为细菌感染的直接病因的病原体及毒素。
Theoretically, blocking quorum sensing would prevent the bacteria from turning pathogenic and producing the toxins that are an immediate cause of disease in bacterial infections.
细菌利用化学信号相互沟通，在这个过程中释放和接收能被群体感应到的信号分子。
Bacteria communicate using chemical signals, releasing and receiving signalling molecules in a process known as quorum sensing.
