The biofilm model proposes that microbial cells growing ... for defining a biofilm aetiology of an infection: the pathogenic bacteria are surface associated or adherent to a substratum; direct ...

Biofilms—slimy communities of bacteria—grow on all sorts of surfaces ... theoretical models to explain these cycles, the best model was surprisingly simple. "The fundamental mechanism is ...

Bacteria form a biofilm on the anode surface because it provides an environment that is favourable for respiration. The model by Kato Marcus et al. focuses on the biofilm anode — the biofilm ...

There are biofilms in the human body ... used the theory of depletion interaction to create a theoretical model of bacterial cable growth. The model can predict when a cable will survive and ...

The bacterial biofilm can be quantify by viable cell density ... Effect of Novel Naturally-Derived Biofilm Inhibitors on a Competitive Colonization Model of Titanium by Staphylococcus aureus and ...

There are biofilms in the human body ... used the theory of depletion interaction to create a theoretical model of bacterial cable growth. The model can predict when a cable will survive and ...

The MIC of antibiotics to biofilm-growing bacteria may be up to 1000-fold higher than that of planktonic bacteria. [10] Multiple biofilm-specific mechanisms are operated simultaneously in a ...

Researchers at KTH Royal Institute of Technology developed a model for estimating the speed and extent of biofilm growth ... begins with micro-colonies of bacteria attaching to a surface.

In addition, students will examine transposon mutants and transformed bacterial strains to determine which gene products interact with host cell mediators. This work will contribute to a better ...

Researchers have successfully uncovered the molecular mechanisms by which bacterial cellulose patches stimulate the regeneration of plant wounds.   - The regeneration process requires the activation ...

Bacteria detect when nearby cells are dying and proactively form a protective biofilm. Understanding how bacteria communicate and respond to threats is crucial for combating infections.
