Specific Disruption of Established <i>P. aeruginosa</i> Biofilms Using Polymer-Attacking Enzymes

2019-04-05

Abstract excerpt

Biofilms are communities of bacteria embedded in an extracellular matrix of self-produced polymeric substances. This polymer matrix lends the bacteria protection against a wide array of chemical and mechanical stresses that they may experience in their environment, which might be a location in the human body in the case of a biofilm infection, or a surface immersed in fluid in an industrial setting. Breaking down...
