Here is an article describing the in vitro activity of Chinese Ginseng on P. aeruginosa biofilm from University Hospital of Copenhegan together with fellows from the Technical University of Denmark and University of Copenhegan, Denmark. These people are in fact well known for their contributions in P.aeruginosa biofilm research Effects of ginseng on Pseudomonas aeruginosa motility and biofilm formation.
