Time-lapse mesoscopy of <i>Candida albicans</i> and <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> dual-species biofilms reveals a structural role for the hyphae of <i>C. albicans</i> in biofilm formation
2023-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Polymicrobial infection with Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus may result in a concomitant increase in virulence and resistance to antimicrobial drugs. This enhanced pathogenicity phenotype is mediated by numerous factors including metabolic processes and direct interaction of S. aureus with C. albicans hyphae. The overall structure of biofilms is known to contribute to their recalcitrance to treatmen...
