Influence of Hydrodynamics and Cell Signaling on the Structure and Behavior of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> Biofilms
28 Aug 2002
Abstract excerpt
Biofilms were grown from wild-type (WT) Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 and the cell signaling lasI mutant PAO1-JP1 under laminar and turbulent flows to investigate the relative contributions of hydrodynamics and cell signaling for biofilm formation. Various biofilm morphological parameters were quantified using Image Structure Analyzer software. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that both cell signaling and...
