Flocculation, adhesion and biofilm formation in yeasts

16 Feb 2006

Abstract excerpt

Yeast cells possess a remarkable capacity to adhere to abiotic surfaces, cells and tissues. These adhesion properties are of medical and industrial relevance. Pathogenic yeasts such as Candida albicans and Candida glabrata adhere to medical devices and form drug-resistant biofilms. In contrast, cell-cell adhesion (flocculation) is a desirable property of industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains that allows the...
