In Situ Mapping of the Mechanical Properties of Biofilms by Particle-tracking Microrheology
Bacterial cells are able to form surface-attached biofilm communities known as biofilms by encasing themselves in extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). The EPS serves as a physical and protective scaffold that houses the bacterial cells and consists of a variety of materials that includes protei...
