Bacterial Biofilms; Links to Pathogenesis and Résistance Mechanism 

2018-07-30

Abstract excerpt

Biofilms are usually defined as surface-associated microbial communities, surrounded by an extracellular polymeric substance matrix. There are three major steps that are observed in biofilm formation:  initial attachment events, microcolony formation and construction of mushroom-like structure with secretion of extracelluar polymeric substances. These substances can be considered a mechanism to protect the ba...
