There is growing evidence that individual bacteria sense and respond to changes in mechanical loading. However, the subtle responses of multispecies biofilms to dynamic fluid shear stress are not well documented because experiments often fail to disentan

Recently, it has been shown that biofilm formation initiates with the...

gradients of quorum sensing (QS) signals in functional activated sludge have raised the question of whether shared systems of signalling synthesis and degradation, or quorum quenching (QQ), across the community inform of the means by which QS biology regulate floccular and granular biofilm assembly....

Functional amyloids are considered as common building block structures of the biofilm matrix in different bacteria. In previous work, we have shown that the staphylococcal surface protein Bap, a member of the Biofilm-Associated Proteins (BAP) family, is processed and the fragments containing the N-...
The cell wall–anchored protein SasG promotes intercellular adhesion during the accumulation phase of biofilm formation in S. aureus, independent of PIA.19, 20 We also verified the expression of sasG at the transcriptional level using microarray and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays ...

Biofilms are defined as structured communities of microorganisms associated with surfaces and encased in a self-produced extracellular matrix, which varies among bacterial species.14Biofilm formation byC. difficilereceived increased interest in the last decade.C. difficilecan form biofilms as a single spec...
