Bacterial biofilms are often defined as communities of surface-attached bacteria and are
typically depicted with a classic mushroom-shaped structure characteristic of Pseudomonas …

The biofilm matrix can be considered to be a shared space for the encased microbial cells,
comprising a wide variety of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), such as …

Biofilm is complex and consists of bacterial colonies that reside in an exopolysaccharide
matrix that attaches to foreign surfaces in a living organism. Biofilm frequently leads to …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic human pathogen causing devastating acute
and chronic infections in individuals with compromised immune systems. Its highly notorious …

Microbial biofilms are communities of aggregated microbial cells embedded in a self-
produced matrix of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). Biofilms are recalcitrant to …

In living organisms, biofilms are defined as complex communities of bacteria residing within
an exopolysaccharide matrix that adheres to a surface. In the clinic, they are typically the …

Microorganisms have evolved to thrive in virtually any terrestrial and marine environment,
exposing them to various mechanical cues mainly generated by fluid flow and pressure as …

Microbial communities enmeshed in a matrix of macromolecules, termed as biofilms, are the
natural setting of bacteria. Exopolysaccharide is a critical matrix component of biofilms …

The ability to construct and maintain a structured multicellular bacterial community depends
critically on the production of extracellular matrix components (1, 2). While the biofilm matrix …

In cystic fibrosis (CF) airways, Pseudomonas aeruginosa forms cellular aggregates called
biofilms that are thought to contribute to chronic infection. To form aggregates, P. aeruginosa …
