Flow-Dependent CFU Dynamics Reshape Polymicrobial Biofilm with a Pronounced Dominance Shift under Sub-Inhibitory Antibiotic Stress

2026-08-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) are the most prevalent healthcare-associated infections globally, yet the ecological dynamics governing polymicrobial biofilm communities on indwelling catheters remain poorly understood under physiologically relevant conditions. Most prior work uses static in vitro models that fail to capture continuous urine flow and sub-inhibitory (sub-MI...
