Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Most chronic wound biofilms have been shown to have significant populations of anaerobes. In order to better screen antimicrobial and antibiofilm therapeutics, we evaluated the ability of key anaerobes to incorporate and propagate within our aerobic chronic wound biofilm. METHOD: We had previously developed a rapid model to simulate polymicrobial chronic wound biofilms. This model incorporated...
