Biofilm dispersal cells of a cystic fibrosis Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolate exhibit variability in functional traits likely to contribute to persistent infection

Persistent lung infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa is typically associated with the development of biofilms, the appearance of morphotypic variants and reduction in the expression of acute virulence factors. We have characterised and compared functional traits [carbon substrate utilisation, attachm...
