Abstract
Bacteria have evolved and continue to change in response to environmental stressors including antibiotics. Antibiotic resistance and the ability to form biofilms are inextricably linked, requiring the continuous search for alternative compounds to antibiotics that affect biofilm formation. One of the latest drug classes is boron-containing compounds. Over the last several decades, boron has emerged as a prominent element in the field of medicinal chemistry, which has led to an increasing number of boron-containing compounds being considered as potential drugs. The focus of this review is on the developments in boron-containing organic compounds (BOCs) as antimicrobial/anti-biofilm probes and agents.
