Biofilms grown on free-floating plastic media are increasingly being used to cultivate biofilms in integrated fixed film activated sludge (IFAS) and moving bed bioreactor (MBBR) systems for wastewater treatment with the common goal of incre...
Adding a new dimension: Multi-level structure and organization of mixed-species Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus biofilms in a 4-D wound microenvironment [0.03%]

Biofilms in wounds typically consist of aggregates of bacteria, most often Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus, in close association with each other and the host microenvironment. Given this, the interplay across host and micro...
Interplay between biofilm microenvironment and pathogenicity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in cystic fibrosis lung chronic infection [0.03%]
黏菌膜微环境与铜绿假单胞菌在囊性纤维化肺部慢性感染中的致病性的相互作用关系研究

Nutrient-transporting channels have been recently discovered in mature Escherichia coli biofilms, however the relationship between intra-colony channel structure and the surrounding environmental conditions is poorly understood. Using a com...
Transcriptome sequencing reveals the difference in the expression of biofilm and planktonic cells between two strains of Salmonella Typhimurium [0.03%]

Salmonela enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is a food-borne pathogen that can form biofilms to increase its resistance to the external environment. Through the detection of biofilm of several S. Typhimurium strains in this study...
Exposure of multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae biofilms to 1,8-cineole leads to bacterial cell death and biomass disruption [0.03%]

Klebsiella pneumoniae is a common cause of health-care associated infections. The rise of antibiotic resistance and the ability to form biofilm among K. pneumoniae strains are two key factors associated with antibiotic treatment failure. Th...
Systematic microscopical analysis reveals obligate synergy between extracellular matrix components during Bacillus subtilis colony biofilm development [0.03%]
